## What is Footy Dare?

Dribble past defenders, dodge angry refs, and try not to get clattered by a fan in the front row. Footy Dare is a one-tap runner where the pitch never lets up.

TAP TO JUMP, HOLD TO SOAR
Quick taps for short hops. Press and hold to send your ball - or your goat - into orbit. The jump feel is closer to a platformer than a runner: variable heights, coyote time, a small jump buffer, and a heavier fall so landings hit clean. Get the rhythm right and you can thread cones, defenders, and a ref already reaching for the red card.

FOUR WORLDS
Run through New York at golden hour. Past castles and cathedrals across Europe. Under pagodas while cherry blossoms drift across the sky. Across the savanna with Kilimanjaro on the horizon. Each world has its own skyline and palette.

EIGHT POWERS, PICK TWO
Build a loadout for the run you want:
* Mega Bounce - your next jump goes through the roof
* Bullet Time - slow the world to a crawl for three seconds
* Power Strike - wipe every obstacle currently on screen
* Shield - soak one collision
* Parachute - glide for four seconds
* Phantom - phase through obstacles for two and a half seconds
* Rocket Boost - instant burst, even mid-air
* Score Surge - double points for eight seconds

FOUR CHARACTERS
Roll as the classic Soccer Ball. Run as the G.O.A.T. (the literal goat). Strike as the Golden Boot. Tear it up as the Trophy. Each one remembers its own ability loadout between runs.

THE HUMANS FIGHT BACK
Cones and rebounders are the easy part. The defenders lunge, and every so often one of them commits to a full slide tackle. Refs throw yellow and red cards. Fans yell and wave their fists. Watch the body language - each one moves differently, and they tell you when they are about to swing.

PLATFORMS AND CATAPULTS
Most platforms are wood beams or bricks, sometimes bobbing in mid-air, good for skipping a row of obstacles. Then there is the catapult: land on one and you fly clean over the next few threats, with a chain of bonus pickups in the sky to grab on the way up.

SHARE CARDS
Every game over generates a 9:16 card with your score, character, and world. Built for Instagram Stories and TikTok. Dare a friend to beat the number.

PROGRESSION THAT STICKS
Your score never resets. Lifetime points unlock new abilities, so the loadout you build at hour one is not the one you will be running at hour ten.

No ads. No in-app purchases. Plays in portrait or landscape, on iPhone or iPad.

Lace up. One tap. Beat your number.
