Did You Know?
Fun fact: Wacky Steps was inspired by the viral 'QWOP' and 'Getting Over It' style of intentionally awkward controls. Every fall is procedurally generated, so no two face-plants are ever the same!

Tips & Tricks
Find your rhythm. The best players don't react to each crack individually — they develop a steady tap cadence
Short steps are safer. It's tempting to hold for long strides, but short taps give you way more control
Watch the ground, not your character. Your eyes should be fixed on the upcoming sidewalk surface
Coins are traps. Half your deaths will come from lunging for a coin instead of playing it safe

Frequently Asked Questions
Discuss: Wacky Steps
I have never laughed so hard at a game in my life. My character tripped over a crack, bounced off a car, and somehow ragdolled INTO another crack. 10/10 would face-plant again.
My kids introduced me to Wacky Steps and now I have a higher score than both of them. Mom skills I guess??
Walked as a hotdog for 3 hours straight. Best gaming session of my life. The ragdoll physics are genuinely impressive.
