About the Game
This game will test your sanity, your phone skills, and your friendships. You can either:
Play Solo: like some insane person who loves to suffer
Play Online CO-OP: and split the suffering among your friends group (more healthy)
Meet Flippy - the Brickphone!
All of this happened because little Jeff slipped on a strategically placed banana peel and yeeted the phone into a storm drain... Now Jeff and Flippy are separated and feeling sad... But You have the power to fix this! Use your phone-flipping skills to reunite them and give them a happy ending!
The Features!
Rotate-Only Movement – Flippy doesn't have legs... Your only movements are rotation and a vibration jump.
Brutal Climb – Small mistake, big drop. 10 different childhood areas and a clear goal - reach the top and reunite with little Jeff.
Online Co-Op Chaos – 1–4 players. Pull friends up. Drop them “by accident.” Friendship DLC not included.
NPC Challenges – Meet quirky characters, uncover weird lore, and most importantly, TRY to complete their platforming challenges.
Speedrun Ready – Quick restarts are implemented so you can efficiently torture yourself with speedruns. Master the way of Flippy and make your way back to Jeff as soon as possible!
Checkpoint Assist (Optional) – A softer mode for when your soul needs a hug. Insane people will flame you. Use it anyway.
Fashionista Flippy – Customize Flippy with different phone cases, charms, and stickers! Even a phone always wants to look its best.
Do you Have Games on your Phone? – The answer is yes! Find, unlock, and play classic mobile games from the past. Truly a game-ception.
Incoming Calls – Answer random calls for Jeff and listen to all the tea. Some are heartwarming from Mom, but others can be a little more on the sketchy side.
This difficult game tests your patience. Falling is part of the challenge. Will you rise or quit when it gets tough?
