Phones and computers

Gutter Glide is a one-button runner that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for one player. It has a daily challenge, the same for everyone that day.

Guide a raindrop along winding rooftop gutters: hold to steer up, let go to swing down. Scraping the rim or hitting a chimney costs water instead of ending the run, and dew refills it. At chimney forks the narrow lane holds gold dew worth double, and the run ends when the drop evaporates.

Tips

A head-on chimney hit takes 0.18 water in one go, far more than a brief scrape, so pick your lane well before the brick.
Gold dew refills 0.09 water against 0.06 for blue and counts twice in the score, but the narrow lane shrinks from 56 to 44 px as you go.
Dew gathered across every run adds up: drop colours open at 120, 300, 600 and 1,000 lifetime dew, and a dashed Best line marks your furthest point.

What ends a run?

Only evaporation. Water drains slowly all the time, faster while the drop scrapes a rim, and a chimney takes a chunk at once. When water falls below about six per cent the drop evaporates. No wall touch ends the run outright, so a scrape is a warning rather than the end.

How does the daily gutter work?

Adding ?daily=1 to the address plays the same gutter for everyone that day, built from the date instead of a random seed. Forks, dew and turns fall in the same places, so scores from one day compare fairly. Without it every run gets a fresh random gutter.
