Dive into the wild world of **Short Life**, the craziest active ragdoll game you'll ever play! Choose your hero and embark on a thrilling journey to reach the finish line—preferably without losing your head along the way. Navigate through 60 challenging levels, all available to you for free, and see if you can keep all your body parts intact as you dodge an array of deadly obstacles.
Control your character using either a joystick or buttons, and brace yourself for a unique twist on platform gaming. In **Short Life**, your mission is to guide your hero safely through each level, avoiding spikes, jumping over mines, and dodging other devastating traps that could dislodge your limbs or worse—blow you into tiny gory pieces! It's a test of timing, reflexes, and a whole lot of fun!
With plenty of traps lying in wait, you'll need to jump, crouch, run, and hold to evade them. As you progress, unlock new heroes and discover the various gruesome ways your character can meet their demise—from being cut by a saw to getting crushed like a mashed potato, pierced by an arrow, or exploding from an incendiary barrel. The game offers a bizarre and humorous take on running and jumping, where your goal is simple: don't die.
Keep an eye out for hints on the screen—they might just save your life. And don't forget to collect all the stars scattered throughout the levels to unlock new characters. How many times will you die before conquering all 60 levels? Find out in **Short Life** and see just how short life can be for a video game hero.
A new addition to the game is the level editor, allowing you to create and share your own levels. Developed by gametornado, **Short Life** continues to evolve with its latest version 24 update on Jan 10, 2023, which includes a fixed skip level feature for an even smoother gameplay experience.
