About

Check out the new features from The Speedrunning Update, a free post launch update to Towerbolt!

Towerbolt is a precision platformer with an emphasis on speed and fluid ascending movement. Set in the far future where robots are waging war against humanity, play as a Bolter, an augmented half human, half robot super soldier, and break out of a futuristic Megatower prison!

Each floor of the Megatower is equipped with deadly security lasers that will chase you as you ascend the tower. Outsprint these lethal lasers every floor while avoiding other security measures on your climb to the top.

Towerbolt is designed to be easy to pick up with a simple one button control scheme, but leaves lots of room for mastery with a high skill ceiling. Master the Bolter Charge mechanic and chain jumps without touching to ground to build vertical momentum to ascend faster and finish levels with lightning speed.

In Towerbolt, speed is more important than being careful or precise. The only thing that will kill you is the big laser chasing you, and every alarm hazard tile you touch will speed up the laser instead of killing you. Making imprecise jumps and making mistakes is okay, as long as you're fast!

The Tower spans over 150 floors and features new obstacles that will challenge and test you on your path to escape. Each floor is a micro platforming challenge designed to be quick to try, retry, and finish to keep you moving fast throughout the game.
Optional challenge collectables and personal rankings per floor. Replay previously cleared floors to collect missed collectables and to improve your Speed and Stealth Ranks!
Built in accessibility options and modular difficulty settings with Assist Mode. Tune the laser speed to your liking or give yourself extra jumps!

So much fun!! I feel like this game checks every box that it's aiming for with flying colors. The art and vibe are solid, the platforming is tight, and it has such a simple and clean gameplay loop that can quickly become entrancing. Normally I don't spend a lot of time trying to "optimize" my time in platforming games, but with the nature of the room to room based gameplay and the rising laser I found myself really enjoying replaying scenes just trying to find the fastest possible escape. The mechanic of being able to jump higher after consecutive wall jumps fits in so cleanly here, its like the rooms allow for progression without utilizing it too heavily but once you start to poke at the system it really opens up a lot of speed and routing possibilities. I've had the pleasure of meeting the dev at an event as well, and they are just so lovely! These are the types of developers I want to support, they not only make great and fun art but also spread the goodwill in the real world as well. If you're on the fence about this one even slightly, try out the demo! It gives a great taste of the core loop so you know exactly what you're signing up for.
Really well made platformer focusing on speed more than anything. Game feels great to play especially when you get up to full speed and get in the groove of movement. A must play for those who like fast platformers.
extremely fun, great artstyle, not hard to the point of losing your mind, overall just a great experience
A killer cyberpunk pixel-art aesthetic with fast paced, precision platformer gameplay that is sure to get the blood pumping. Perfect for speed runners!
im really bad at it. but its a dope arcade game! hope the dev fixes a few things with like cloud saves but the game itself is just fine. worthy for your steamdeck.
