Light Run: how to play

The small print for fans who like to know exactly how it works: points, bonuses, levels, power-ups and every skin you can earn.

Controls

Hold the mouse button, your finger, the space bar or arrow up to float up. Let go to drift down. Press F for full screen, Esc to leave it.

The music is Point Rush, a track made for kpop-fandom. Music on/off switches it off without muting the sound effects.

Lives and levels

You start with 3 lives. A hit costs one, and for 1.6 seconds after a hit nothing can hit you again. A rare Extra life bonus and every 50 lights in a row give one back. Up to level 5 that only fills you up to 3 again; from level 6 on you can go up to 5.

There is one course a day, the same for every fan; a new one starts at 00:00 Seoul time. Play it as often as you like. It never ends: level 1 lasts 1:30, every next level 5 seconds less, and from level 7 on every level lasts one minute. Every level is faster, with smaller gaps and more drones. Skins only change the look, so everyone plays exactly the same game.

Reaching a new level gives you 500 × that level in points. Reaching level 2 to 14 for the first time opens a new world for Haepi, at the end of that run.

Points

Your multiplier goes up by 1 for every 10 lights in a row, up to ×5. Missing a light, getting hit or bumping the floor resets it. During Encore fever every point counts double.

Bonuses

The superpower in every world

The power is the same everywhere, only the power-up changes with the world you play in.

What to dodge

ObstacleHow it works
TrussesFly through the gap between the top and bottom part.
DronesThey float up and down. Stay out of their way.
Confetti cannonA striped zone fills up as you come close, then blasts confetti up to the top of the zone. Fly over it.

Skins and worlds

Worlds open by how far you get in one single run: reach the level in the table and the world is yours at the end of that run. Your light jar counts every light you ever caught. Skins only change how Haepi and the arena look; they never change the game.

Gold60 perfect waves in one run

HoloThe perfect encore: 6 minutes, no hit and not one light missed

The board

The board shows the ten best runs of today, this week (from Monday), this month and all time, in Seoul time. One fan can be on it more than once. You need a fan name to appear on it; you can pick one on The Daily. Every run is checked: a score that is not possible in the time played is left off the board.

The Daily Run is the same course for every fan, all day. A new one starts at 00:00 Seoul time.
