Blinky Run is an endless runner you can play without touching the screen. Race across the rooftops of a neon synthwave city and jump with a blink, by opening your mouth… or with a simple tap. THREE WAYS TO PLAY • Fingers: tap anywhere to jump. Works on every device, no camera needed. • Eyes: blink on purpose, a little longer than usual, to jump. • Mouth: open your mouth to jump. • The same course rules in every mode: an easy start, then a real crescendo. PLAY HANDS-FREE • Hands-free mode: pick a mode and start a run with your eyes or mouth, without touching the screen. • 5-second practice calibration: blink (or open your mouth) 3 times to make Blinky jump, and the detection adapts to you.
