About

How a run works
Step
Each stage puts you on a runway where a plane is coming. Your job is simple in theory: jump, grab the plane, and do not let go until you reach the goal. If you lose your grip before the finish, the run ends and you start over.
- Jump and grab the plane as it passes.
- Keep your grip through the whole flight across the sky.
- Reach the finish crossing the goal earns you a trophy.
- Trophies open up new worlds, and stages must be cleared in order.

Two upgrade paths exist: gloves and gear box items.
| Gloves | raise how fast you grab a plane and let you handle heavier ones. |
| Jetpack | assists your flight while hanging on. |
| Parachute | adjusts how fast you fall. |
| Gravity Wings | changes how gravity affects you during the run. |
Unlocking new worlds
Check
New worlds do not open on their own. You earn a trophy each time you reach the finish line on a stage, and those trophies are what unlock the next world. You cannot skip ahead — each stage must be cleared before the next one opens.
- Reach the finish line on the current stage to earn a trophy.
- Work through stages in sequence there is no way to jump past one.

Common questions
FAQWhat happens if I let go of the plane before the finish?
Releasing your grip counts as failing the stage. You will have to start the run from the beginning.
How do I get past a stage I keep failing?
Train your grip strength so you can hold on longer, and upgrade your gloves so you can grab faster and handle the plane's weight.
How many players can be in one room?
Up to ten players can be in the same room at once.
Do I have to clear stages in a specific order?
Yes. You must finish each stage before the next world opens — there is no way to skip ahead. Trophies earned from each finish are what unlock the following stage.
