How to Play

Use your mouse to move and jump. Click near your character to walk there, click farther away from your character to run. You can hold the mouse button to keep walking or running. If you click above your character, you'll also jump.

Tips for Beginners

Take time to explore the tools, colors, outfits, or choices before settling on a final design.
For younger players, test the controls together once before leaving them to play independently.
Creative games are better when you experiment, so try a few combinations before restarting.
