Stickman Walking Race

Two stickmen race down a track to the finish line. You make your runner go by tapping a key or button as fast as you can — every tap advances your stickman a random distance. Rapid tapping builds a combo that adds a speed bonus, so rhythm matters as much as raw speed.

Tap "Create Room" to host and share the short room code (like UXV-K3M2) with your friend, who joins with it. Once connected, the host starts the race and both players mash their own Space bar (or the on-screen MASH button) from their own device. Each runner is simulated locally for zero lag on your own character, and positions sync instantly over the peer-to-peer connection.

Yes — "Local 2-Player" mode lets Player 1 mash the W key while Player 2 mashes the O key (there are also big on-screen buttons for each player). It works fully offline and is perfect for couch competitions.

Tapping again within a short window keeps your combo going and adds a little bonus speed on top of each tap. If you slow down, the combo resets. It rewards fast, steady mashing and makes the race feel tense right up to the finish line.

Yes. Each player's runner advances based only on their own taps — the game never moves your stickman for you. Your own runner is simulated locally so there is no input lag, and the opponent's position arrives over WebRTC as they tap. The first runner to cross the finish line wins, and photo finishes are detected and shown as a draw if both cross within a hair of each other.

Yes. In online mode a big MASH button appears under the track that you can hammer with your thumb. In local mode each player gets their own tap button. The track and stickmen are drawn on a responsive canvas that scales to any screen.

All sounds — the tap ticks, countdown beeps, GO call, and victory fanfare — are synthesized live with the Web Audio API. Nothing is downloaded. Local mode works completely offline; online mode only needs a connection for the initial room handshake and syncing between players.
