About Duck Paradox
Duck Paradox is a platforming game about scientist Dr. Paraducks, whose malfunctioning time machine sends her pet duck into the multiverse. She travels through its endless domains to find and save the ducks, while battling corrupted versions of her pet and trying to grasp what remains of reality as her sanity declines. You tackle difficult trials across repeated runs, moving quickly to earn upgrades and rescue the ducks.
Fight through the dimensions
You leap across hazardous platforms and use a ray gun to fight swarms of corrupted ducks. Shots that miss ricochet off walls, so aiming carefully matters as you dodge hazards, big-beaked bosses and pixelated pits. You can slow time for breathing room while solving puzzles and engaging barricades.
The more than 50 increasingly difficult levels span three visually distinct worlds: Lab Dimension, Disco Dimension and Duckwash Dimension. Their challenges combine precision platforming, strategic shooting, puzzles and upgrades.
Choose your upgrades
At the end of each level, you choose between two randomized upgrades and experiment with different builds as each run resets. You can also obtain shield bubbles and set explosive traps to zap duck doppelgangers while guiding your duck to safety.
Game modes
The game includes an endless Survival mode and a built-in timer for players seeking greater challenges. You can also unlock the hidden Impossible Mode.
