Paddlenaut

A 3D river runner you steer with one thumb. The kayak keeps its own pace; all you decide is where it goes.

Swipe left and right to slip past rocks, rapids, ducks and drifting logs, pick up coins along the way, and make it through the finish gate. Past the gate a bonus run sets the multiplier on everything you collected, and a chest waits at the end of it. Where the river splits around an island, the riskier side hides a gem.

The river starts on a summer beach and runs through spring, autumn, winter and night until a launch ramp lifts it off the ground, past the Moon and Mars and into deep space, where the kayak trades its paddle for a rocket. Then it comes round again at sunset, under the northern lights and through a lunar eclipse: twenty chapters and two hundred levels, with a boss level closing every chapter after the first eight.

Every world you reach opens an endless river of its own, and the coins you pick up buy new kayaks and hats in the shop.
