UP! with a stranger

Climb with a friend, or get paired with a stranger who is given a name as silly as Cheeky Blob. Each of you controls one blob. A sign warns you to go up together or die.

The string tying you together, and the one rule that it must not break. A climb from your backyard up toward space and beyond. Your goal of seeing how high the pair of you can get.

ilyxxxa comes from an art director background. They describe it as the offspring of Purple & Brown, It Takes Two and Flappy Bird, and call it dumb by design. They also pitch it as the first co-op game for strangers. It's the first game they've shipped, and by their account it is 99% vibe coded. They had wanted to make a game their whole life. Part of the point was to test whether AI-made work could read as handmade.
