Dropper Race

Dropper Race is a falling action race with 5 stages in total, where you dive down shafts, slip past obstacles, and aim for the water at the very bottom.

Players and how to win

It is played by 1–8 players. The time limit is 240 seconds (4 minutes), and there is no PvP.

The player who finishes all 5 stages the fastest wins. If players finish at exactly the same moment, they tie for the win.

The match ends as follows.

• When the first player finishes, the match ends 30 seconds later (without going past the original time limit)
• If everyone finishes, the results are announced right away
• If nobody finishes within the time limit, the player with the most stages cleared wins
• If the highest number of cleared stages is tied, or if you play alone and do not finish, the result is a draw

A match played alone is not counted in your stats.

How a match flows

Jump into the hole of each stage and land in the water below without hitting walls or obstacles. Hitting an obstacle or wall along the way does not eliminate you, and you can retry from the start point of the same stage as many times as you like.

The course

The course is generated automatically for each match. The color theme (6 kinds, such as Sky Tower and Deep Sea Lab) and the layout of each stage’s entrance, hole, and crossbars change every time.

As the stages progress, they get harder in these ways.

• The number of floor layers increases (from 2 to 6)
• The hole gets narrower (from 7×7 to 3×3)
• The hole’s position shifts away from directly below
• Crossbars and fake holes that you cannot fall through increase

Every stage always has a 2×2 path that goes straight from the top down to the water.

When you finish

When you finish all 5 stages, your total time for this run and your previous personal best are shown. If you set a new record, that is shown too.

Good to know

The falling height is the same on every map, so you can compare your personal best across maps.

You cannot place or break blocks.
