Danger Cliff

Danger Cliff is a 2D collectathon platformer in which Clifford and his best friend Boxer search several large zones for the missing parts of Boxer's home starship. The ship was shot out of the sky while the pair explored mysterious sky ruins, and they set out to find its parts before whoever attacked it can claim them.

Levels and progression

You begin in a hub world with access to one level and its collectables. Gathering more collectables unlocks new levels, leading eventually to a difficult boss course. Completing that course opens the next set of levels.

Moves and challenges

Clifford's signature move is the Cone Rush: he transforms into a drill and flies in the direction you hold. You can use it once horizontally and once upward before it needs to recharge by landing. Many challenges are too large for a standard jump, so mastering the Cone Rush is critical. The optional Air Dash and Power Jump let skilled players perform additional tricks.

Courses and collectibles

The game has 19 main courses, each with multiple objectives, as well as several extra levels. These include dedicated final-boss and secret-final-boss levels, seven endless challenge rush stages, harder rematches against six major bosses and unlockable challenge modes. A skilled player can reach the final boss after around 2.5 hours; collecting all 100 collectables takes around five hours, while a first playthrough is likely to take much longer.
