Retro Rabbit Run

Retro rabbit is on the run, in this fun side-scroller that teaches morse code. The game world is automatically generated based on text from Retro's favorite public domain works about rabbits, which you get to read as you progress through the level.

Created by a father daughter team, the game is designed to be played on desktop, iPad, and mobile phones.

Tap the screen or any key quickly to make Retro hop (dot), or hold the screen for a longer jump (dash). If you turn on your audio, you'll hear morse code being played as Retro hops. Each letter of the public domain story is translated into Morse code, which guides Retro's path in avoiding obstacles and catching carrots.

Under the Hood

The game runs on a simple sprite engine built in TypeScript and Vue.js, and features tile-based level generation. The engine can be customized with a different hero, or different obstacles, enemies, or power ups.
