Manul Run: a game, website and apps built with Codex

A Pallas's cat collects prey and prepares for winter in this runner game. I created the game, website and apps with Codex, then released the project on the web, VK Games, OK Games and RuStore. An Android APK is also available.

How the game works

Manul Run is a browser runner. A Pallas's cat jumps over obstacles, collects prey and gains weight for winter. This goal shapes the game loop and its character: each run helps the furry predator prepare for colder weather.

The web version runs on phones and computers. The project website brings together the game and links to its releases on other platforms.

My contribution

I am the creator and AI architect of Manul Run. I directed development through tasks in Codex, creating the game, website and apps, then preparing releases for their platforms.

The project connects its game mechanics with several distribution routes. The website provides access to the browser game and helps players select a version; apps and gaming platforms offer additional ways to play.

  • Development of the game and its website with Codex.
  • Preparation of apps and a browser version for phones and computers.
  • Release on VK Games, OK Games and RuStore, plus APK distribution.
  • Submission to additional platforms, where moderation is in progress.
