controls and build status

The screen above is not a video and not a mockup. It is the game itself, running the same sim and the same renderer you get on /play, with a scripted pilot at the controls.

four verbs. that is the entire game.

  • horn swing

    a wide arc across everything in front of you. one clean hit puts a farmer down.

  • stampede

    charge at four times your speed. nothing lands on you mid charge and anything you cross is trampled.

  • headbutt

    meet a wind up head on. the hit is cancelled and the farmer is left wide open.

  • ground stomp

    a full circle slam that throws the ring off you. twelve seconds before you get another.

  • 180seconds. the hard cap on a run.
  • 146ranch hands scheduled across it.
  • 60ticks a second. the same inputs replay the same run.
  • 1seed. every runner gets the same yard.

your nft. your bull. your run.

The bull you own is the bull on the field. Pick one from your garage and it becomes your character, your portrait and your name on the board. It never becomes an advantage.

Development bulls, shown while the collection is not yet launched. Names and art are placeholders.

same seed. same stats. your skill.

Same seed

One shared daily seed builds every arena, so the farmers and the timing are identical for everyone.

Same stats

Every bull has the same health, the same speed and the same damage. Rarity changes the colour of your hide and nothing else.

Your skill

The only difference between two scores is how the two players ran. That is the entire product.

This is enforced by the build, not by policy. The simulation and the renderer are blocked from importing wallet or NFT code at all, so no bull can carry a stat even by accident.

where the build is

the run
playable now
free, in the browser. no account and nothing to install
controls
keyboard only
a run needs a real keyboard. touch controls are not built yet
daily seed
fixed for now
one seed shared by everyone. daily rotation is not wired up yet
leaderboard
not live yet
the board page still shows placeholder scores
holder skins
not live yet
no collection exists, so there is nothing minted to hold

nothing here pays out and no rank earns a prize. a run is worth the score on it.

read only here. connecting checks a balance and changes nothing about the run
