About MineRalph
MineRalph is a tough, retro, 2D Physics-Platformer made with speedrunning in mind, where momentum is the difference between making a jump or falling to your inevitable death. In essence, MineRalph is a combination of Sonic the Hedgehog & Super Meat Boy – with level design reminiscent of the old Mario Bros. games and the control scheme of Angry Birds… Confused? Try the demo for free.
The premise is simple, push a ball around. However, with 360 degrees of options, varying speeds, and moving terrain, the movement itself becomes a puzzle. Even the smallest challenge becomes difficult when you can’t seem to stand still!
“At the core of
Dario Rahimic, MineRalph Game DesignerMineRalph , is a desire for creative solutions, skill-based progression, and speedrunning. Having followed the speedrunning scene closely for a few games, and loving to see the dedication and passion that some runners bring to titles like Yoshi’s Island, we wanted to create a game which truly supports competition and mechanical discovery”.
