Cocktail Run

Cocktail Run is a pixel platformer that keeps its levels short and its hazards honest. Spikes sit where you can see them and shooting plants fire on a rhythm you can learn, so a stage that kills you the first time usually falls apart the second, once you have read where the plants aim. Reaching the finish line is the whole goal, and nothing pads the way there.

Coins are the reason to take the awkward route. They sit on the ledges you would skip if you only cared about surviving, and they buy character skins from the shop, so the run you play safely and the run you play greedily end up feeling like two different stages. Daily rewards top up the pile between sessions.

How to play

Move left and right with A and D or the arrow keys, and jump with Space, W or the Up arrow. Spikes kill on contact and shooting plants fire across the path, so watch a plant for a beat before crossing in front of it. Coins scattered along each stage add up in the shop, where they unlock new character skins. Reach the finish line to clear the stage, and check back for the daily reward.

Controls

On PC, A and D or the Left and Right arrow keys move you, and Space, W or the Up arrow jumps. On mobile, use the on-screen buttons to move and jump.
