Inspiration
I was bored but I didn’t know what to play. I am also not into the idea of downloading many simple games just to play them for a short moment. So I decided to make my own.
Goal
Do Not Fall is an omnibus collection of mini-games (“Falls”). Each Fall shifts between scrolling platformers, kinetic bullet-evasion fields, and rotating physics sandboxes. Every Fall runs on a strict elimination rule: any contact with the outer canvas boundaries or hazard zones results in an immediate game over. The objective is to outlast the countdown and earn the maximum high-score possible under changing environmental constraints.

Internationalisation
I am trying my best to cater to every player. This plan is split into 2 parts, FitAllDevices and SpeakYourWay.
FitAllDevices
Platform support priority is sequenced as follows: Android, Windows, then macOS.
Version 15 marked the final release utilising 18:9 as the default aspect ratio, which was subsequently standardised to 16:9 in later builds.
Aspect ratios tested and officially supported are 16:9, 18:9, and 21:9. This applies to landscape mode as well. Arbitrary aspect ratios are dynamically computed at runtime and scale proportionally.
For wider screens, the size of the original content is preserved, and extra spaces will fill in the wider parts of the screen. For slimmer screens, the size of the original content shrinks, and the camera in some Falls will have higher fov to include the entire scene.
SpeakYourWay
The default language is the detected device language, and if it is unsupported, English is used as fallback. You can change the game language in settings.

Roadmap
Due to limited free time, the update speed of this project is significantly slower than I expected. If time permits, this will be the first game I re-visit.
Fall 4 and 6
Fall 4 and 6 are both fully developed, yet I never got the time to release them.
UI/UX Improvement
The current user interface is blocky and clunky. The goal is to make sure the game is navigable through only a keyboard, and possibly controllers as well.
Discord Account System
Shifting from a general Playfab email account system to Discord is a must. The previous method was a lazy placeholder and is destined to be replaced.
Fall 5
It may seem weird to release Fall 6 before Fall 5, but that is because Fall 5 has been scrapped and re-done multiple times. There is still no confident progress to be revealed about this Fall, and if the game does update, it will contain the 3 features mentioned above first.
