A downloadable game for Windows


What's this?

Inching Along is a physics-based climbing adventure where you control a floppy little inchworm trying to navigate a large and uncaring world.

Movement is entirely physics-driven: you grab onto surfaces with either end of your body and swing, inch, and pull yourself along using momentum and torque, one inch at a time. There are no upgrades or powerups, progress comes from improving your understanding of the mechanics, and a pinch of persistence 🐛
