Original release notes

A massive overhaul. Carl is faster, prettier, and packed with new ways to score.

NEW PLATFORM TYPES

Gem platforms drop a juicy multi point bonus. Bouncy platforms launch Carl with a super jump and a green trail. Mini platforms are smaller and harder to hit, but pay the biggest reward. Gold and standard platforms still anchor the run.

COMBO MULTIPLIER

Chain five clean landings to bump your multiplier. Keep chaining for higher tiers. Every landing you make is now worth more if you can hold the streak.

MID AIR COLLECTIBLES

Coins and gems drift through your jump path. Grab them mid flight to stack score and gold without missing the platform.

HAZARDS

Birds now appear after score fifteen. A warning flashes before each one. Stay grounded when they pass or get knocked out cold.

MILESTONE CELEBRATIONS

Every ten points the screen erupts with confetti, a level banner, a color shift, and a haptic kick.

A FULL VISUAL REFRESH

New dark gradient backdrops across the whole app. Glowing platforms. Score popups. Particle bursts on every landing. Player squash and stretch animations. Screen flashes when it counts.

NEW LOOK ACROSS EVERY SCREEN

Brand new home screen, settings, tutorial, end of run, gem shop, login, and revive screens. All share a clean modern aesthetic with rounded gradient buttons and bright icon controls.

BUG FIXES AND POLISH

Smoother animations, cleaner physics, and lots of small fixes. Thanks for playing Carl.
