Shoot bouncing bullets in this roguelike precision platformer killing corrupted ducks while searching for Dr. Paraducks’ beloved pet throughout the multiverse! To return to safety you’ll need to tackle difficult-to-master trials, run after run, earning upgrades, while maintaining your sanity!
ENTER THE PARADOX
Navigate the infinite domains of the multiverse as savvy scientist Dr. Paraducks in search of her pet duck, lost in the throes of space-time thanks to a malfunctioning time machine. Trapped in a world of endless possibilities, Dr. Paraducks continues to battle corrupted versions of her beloved pet despite the unrelenting reality and her declining sanity. But who knows what is real anymore? For her, there is no choice but to keep fighting. Tackle difficult-to-master trials, run after run, with the utmost quickness to earn powerful upgrades, save all of the ducks, and grasp the tattered threads of reality.

BEWARE OF THE DUCKS
Armed with a trusty ray gun and a can-do quackitude, face dangerous worlds teeming with corrupted imposters. Leap across perilous platforms, unleashing waves of bouncing bullets on swarms of feathered foes. Every ray gun blast offers a deadly risk: each miss ricochets off of walls, adding to Dr. Paraducks’ list of troubles. Aim and shoot strategically while dodging lethal hazards, big-beaked bosses, and pixelated pits of death.

OUTSMART THE FLOCK
Slow down time for some breathing room while solving puzzles and engaging barricades. Procure lifesaving shield bubbles before setting up explosive traps to zap duck doppelgangers while corralling your duck to safety. Select between two randomized upgrades at the end of each level, experimenting with new builds with every reset. Keep a level head through more than 50 increasingly difficult levels or test your resolve in the endless Survival mode.
