APU
Climb a voxel Andean mountain, surviving cold, wind, and cliffs to reach the summit.
About APU
APU starts you in a warm mountain town in the Andes and points you at the summit. The climb is a voxel survival game: cold, strong wind and sheer cliffs stand between you and the top, and the goal is to get there alive.
The creator brought three interests together here: game development, mountain climbing and Peruvian roots. It was made with Codex as an experiment in vibe coding and plays on phones as well as desktops. The setting draws on Peruvian mountain mythology, with a blocky voxel look that gives the peaks a mythic feel.
Each stretch of the ascent is about managing the conditions and picking a safe way up. The cozy town at the bottom sets up a contrast with the harsh terrain above.
