Rule of Three

Theme: Three Rules — In this endless pixel-art platformer, points are earned in exactly three ways:
- Kill enemies to score points.
- Stand on moving logs for extra points.
- Collect golden stars scattered along your path.

Survive as long as possible and rack up the highest score before the forest overwhelms you.

About the Game

You play as a cloaked wanderer trapped in a dark, enchanted forest. The forest never ends, but your skill determines how far you can go. As time passes, the challenges get harder enemies become more dangerous, jumps become trickier, and your reflexes will be put to the test.

Mastering the Rule of Three is your only path to victory: kill, stand, collect. Fail to adapt, and your run will quickly end.
