Controls & how it runs

Break an egg in a zone, grab the pet that jumps out and carry it back to your base. Place pets in your pen to earn money, then buy stronger pickaxes and more speed to reach farther zones. 💻 PC Controls: WASD – Move Hold Right Mouse Button – Rotate camera Space – Jump Left Mouse Button / F – Swing the pickaxe or the bat 1 / 2 – Pickaxe / bat Hold E – Grab a pet R – Drop the pet 📱 Mobile Controls: Joystick – Move Swipe on the right side of the screen – Rotate camera On-screen buttons – Swing, jump, grab and other actions

Getting a run going takes exactly one press: Press start, up top, and the game boots inside this page — nothing downloads in the background and no form wants your details before the first jump. The cabinet is drawn for a landscape (wide) screen and listens to mouse, keyboard or touch, whichever the game prefers. This cabinet runs wide: landscape screens flatter it, so tip a phone on its side or hand it a tablet or desktop and let it stretch out. Given a fullscreen button, use it — scores look better at full size, that's just science.

Pro tips for arcade cabinets

• Treat your first run as a scouting mission. Arcade cabinets hide their cruelty in the second minute, not the first — learn where the difficulty spikes before you start chasing numbers.
• Small scores compound. Grab the easy pickups on every pass instead of gambling the whole run on one heroic line; heroes respawn, banked points don't evaporate.
• Watch the edges of the screen. In classic arcade design the next problem almost always enters from somewhere you weren't looking — build the habit of scanning the borders.
