Running on Magic

Running on Magic is a runner platformer about a desperate mage fleeing the Grim Reaper through dynamically created obstacle courses. You jump over pits, platforms and blob creatures, using flying powers to survive to the end. The clumsy Reaper follows behind, trying to convince the mage to come along and repeatedly failing.

Movement and magic

Jump, float and stomp to get past obstacles. Magic pickups scattered through each level fuel these abilities, letting you adapt to different situations. The game is designed to be accessible, with four difficulty settings that increase the speed, reduce pickups and give the wizard less HP. On the hardest setting, you have only one hit to complete the journey.

Worlds and modes

Explore five themed worlds, presented in pixel art and accompanied by music. Endless mode continually increases the speed, and its leaderboard lets you compare scores with friends or challenge your own best.
