Description

A retro-style running game for your Garmin watch. Jump, duck, and dodge New Zealand wildlife rendered in colorful pixel art. Yes, you can lose to a sheep. Multiple times. It's fine. Visit https://skyrunner.div.nz for more information. ═════ TWO GAME MODES ═════ LEVEL MODE: Tackle handcrafted levels with increasing difficulty. Collect diamonds for 1-3 star ratings. Master shield power-ups, ledge climbing, and parachute descents. Beat your best times and unlock new challenges as you progress. ENDLESS MODE: See how far you can run in randomly generated infinite gameplay. Compete on global leaderboards. Challenge yourself to beat your longest distance. ═════ POWER-UPS & OBSTACLES ═════ SHIELD: One-hit protection that lets you plow through a single obstacle. Usually appears right before a massacre zone where you'll desperately need it. PARACHUTE: Slow descent from high ledges. Because falling 50 meters hurts. SLINGSHOT: Fire explosive grenades that destroy obstacles in their path. Because sometimes you just want to blow things up. BOUNCING BUBBLE: Temporary invincibility inside a bouncing bubble. Stack multiple for extended protection. EXTRA LIFE: Get back up after a hit. Stack multiple for even more chances. DIAMONDS: Collect these sparkly beauties for star ratings in Level Mode, or spend them in the Diamond Shop during Endless Mode. WILDLIFE: Dodge sheep, birds, rocks, and mystical blue mushrooms. They're adorable. They're also deadly. ═════ DIAMOND SHOP ═════ Pause during Endless Mode to spend your collected diamonds on power-ups. Buy shields, parachutes, slingshots, bouncing bubbles, and extra lives to push your run further. All items activate immediately. ═════ CONTROLS ═════ TOUCH: Tap top half of screen to jump, bottom half to duck BUTTONS: Up button to jump, Down button to duck MENUS: Touch or buttons, your choice Works great with both control schemes.

What is new

▬ October 22, 2026 - 1.6.6 - STABILITY: Finished off the main menu crash that 1.6.5 went after. It could still hit when tapping a menu button, because the brief highlight on the button you tapped ran on its own stopwatch, and the watch only allows a few. The highlight now runs off the menu's existing animation clock, so a tap no longer needs a stopwatch of its own. Seen on Forerunner 165. ▬ October 18, 2026 - 1.6.5 - STABILITY: Fixed a crash on the main menu that could hit if you pressed start or tapped a button twice in quick succession. Each extra press quietly set up a game nobody was playing, with its own stopwatch left ticking, and the watch only allows a few. Now the first press wins and the rest are ignored. Seen mostly on Forerunner 165, 255, 265 and 965. ▬ September 18, 2026 - 1.6.4 - STABILITY: Fixed a crash that could strike right at the end of a run, while scores saved up from offline sessions were being sent. It showed up mainly on Venu 4 and Forerunner 255 once a decent backlog had built up. Signing that backlog is now effectively instant, so the watchdog has nothing to bite. No scores were ever lost - the watch just should not have flinched. ▬ September 16, 2026 - 1.6.3 - NEW DEVICES: fenix 9 support across the whole range - 43mm, 47mm, the Pro trio and both Pro Solar sizes. The 51mm Pro screen is a size no Garmin has used before, so it gets its own artwork rather than a stretched hand-me-down. No gameplay changes, just more wrists to run on. ▬ June 24, 2026 - 1.6.2 - STABILITY: Finally stomped the pesky bug that could freeze some watches mid-run (vívoactive 5 & 6, we owe you one). Turns out the runner was hoarding stopwatches like a Kaka hoards shiny things - now there's just the one. Also made high-score saving dramatically faster so the watchdog stops biting. Fewer freezes, more running. Back to dodging sheep! ▬ April 27, 2026 - 1.6.0 - NEW: Diamond Shop in Endless Mode! Spend collected diamonds on Slingshot (fire grenades at obstacles), Bouncing Bubble (temporary invincibility), Shield, Parachute, and Extra Life. 2 new levels. Want to be Level 20? Create your own level using the online level editor and the new power ups and share it with us - the best community levels will be added to the game! ▬ March 20, 2026 - 1.5.1 - Rebuilt with latest Connect IQ SDK 9.1. Fixes installation issues reported on some devices including Forerunner 165. ▬ January 25, 2026 - 1.5.0 - ALL FEATURES NOW FREE! Removed Pro paywall - everyone gets all levels, unlimited endless mode, custom levels, and level editor access. Create a free account to get your player name on leaderboards. Optional donations welcome to support development. ▬ December 13, 2025 - 1.4.1 - Fixed transparent background on some device assets. Improved sound and vibrations. ▬ December 11, 2025 - 1.4.0 - All game assets have been remastered with improved artwork and animations. Added bee spawning during long parachute floats to keep gameplay challenging. ▬ November 30, 2025 - 1.3.1 - Fixed random spawn after zone. Changed Lite version endless mode limit to 10km. Improved registration process. ▬ November 19, 2025 - 1.2.1 - Custom level diamond scores now reset when a level is updated. Support for Fenix 6 Pro. Tweaked in game hud text. ▬ November 17, 2025 - 1.2.0 - ONLINE LEVEL EDITOR NOW LIVE! Pro users can create and share custom levels at https://skyrunner.div.nz ▬ November 16, 2025 - 1.1.9 - Fixed crash on devices that don't support vector fonts such as the Vivoactive 5. ▬ November 12, 2025 - 1.1.8 - Fixed game play time calculation. ▬ November 10, 2025 - 1.1.7 - Country leaderboard now auto-switches if user moves countries. ▬ November 10, 2025 - 1.1.6 - Fixed spawning of some obstacles during endless mode. ▬ November 7, 2025 - 1.1 - Improved level layouts and batch score submission for offline play. ▬ November 7, 2025 - 1.02 - Improve upgrade to pro process. ▬ November 6, 2025 - 1.0 - initial release!
