══════════════════════ Cranner ════════════════════

Do you like Offline T-Rex? Then try to run as far as possible with our crab!


Cranner is not only simple jumps, but complex dodges and interesting opponents! Don't expect that all enemies will stand still, but be prepared for surprises. There is also an interesting slowdown mechanic and a wonderful ost will pull you back to the races.


You can download DEMO here

══════════════════════ Features ════════════════════

  • Local leaderboard
  • Music/SFX
  • Responsive controls
  • Nice pixelart
  • 40 fps

══════════════════════ Portals ═════════════════════


The slowdown system works with the help of portals. When you pass through a working portal, your speed will decrease to 3.5 pix/sec. Each subsequent passed through portal will increase this value by 0.5 pix/sec (3.5, 4, 4.5, etc). Look at the current speed, it may be more profitable to wait for the next portal.

Great game with nice graphics!

Great game! Really fun! Just a heads up though I’ve had the game crash on me a couple times during start up.

Thanks for the report, looks like it was already fixed in the latest Noble version, I'll upload updated version soon

Very fun and cool looking game. I like the numbered crabs to show how far u got but at first i thought it was a power up or something.

I had one point where thee was puffer shish in a big wall that i dont think i could pass.
Also noticed the cranner logo is visible on the border when the game is running

Can you reproduce it? it doesn't look like healthy behavior

-The logo always seems to be behind the game when i play. mabie not clearing / updating those pixels?
