## What is Whiskers Night Run?

WHISKERS: NIGHT RUN

The rooftops are calling. Choose your companion, tap to jump, and outrun the night across a hand-crafted 8-bit skyline that never plays the same way twice.

Whiskers: Night Run is a retro pixel-art auto-runner: your companion sprints forward on their own — you handle the jumps, the shots, and the dash. Every level is procedurally generated, so the gaps, spikes, enemies, and hidden loot are different every single run.

EIGHT COMPANIONS, EIGHT PERSONALITIES
Pick your runner from a growing menagerie, each with their own look and their own signature move:
• Cat — shoots mice, chases one down for the trick
• Dragon — hurls fireballs, takes flight to the middle of the screen for the trick
• Unicorn — fires rainbows, casts a sparkling spell
• Capybara — lobs oranges, takes a zen soak
• Dog — throws bones, spins a happy circle
• Penguin — flings fish, belly-slides edge to edge
• Spider — slings webs, spins one that covers the whole screen
• Highland Cow — flings thistle tops, kicks off a Highland reel with a dancing partner

SIMPLE CONTROLS, REAL DEPTH
Tap the left side of the screen to jump (tap twice for a double jump), tap the right side to shoot. Grab fish to keep your ammo up, hearts to heal, and fill your trick meter to unleash your companion's special move and clear every enemy on screen.

LEVELS THAT NEVER REPEAT
Every run is stitched together from hand-authored terrain pieces — flat breathers, spike patches, open pitfalls, bonus platforms guarded by flyers, sky staircases, and forced chasm crossings where the only safe path is up. The further you get, the faster and busier it gets.

BUILT FOR ONE HAND, ONE THUMB
Designed from the ground up for quick, one-handed sessions — pick it up, beat your best level, put it down.

Play your own music from Apple Music while you run (optional, sign in from Settings).

No ads interrupting your run. No pay-to-win. Just you, your companion, and the rooftops.
