About GoNNER
GoNNER is a score-based, procedurally generated platformer with roguelike elements from Art in Heart, published by Raw Fury in 2016 and later updated as the BlüEBERRY Edition with new weapons, heads and enemies. Its story is about the friendship between Ikk, Death and a space whale named Sally. You will die a lot, by design, and lost heads can be swapped for replacements.
At the start of each run you choose from passive and active abilities, and secret areas unlock items you can use from the start of later runs. Killing creatures and chaining combos builds your score.
The Daily Challenge gives everybody the same generated world with an identical loadout, so the only difference is skill. Only your first run of the day goes on the daily leaderboard; after players asked for more, the developers let the daily be replayed for practice. Everything resets at midnight Swedish time (UTC+1). In the high score screen, the Global button switches to the Daily board.
It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux through Steam, with full controller support, and its text comes in 15 languages.
It suits players of Spelunky and Downwell who like a hard, fast run and a single daily attempt to compare.
How to play GoNNER
- Buy and install GoNNER on Steam.
- Choose the Daily Challenge from the menu.
- Fight and jump through the generated world with the fixed loadout, keeping your combo going.
- Your first run of the day is the one that counts: see where it lands by switching the high score screen from Global to Daily.

Tips
- Chain kills to build combos: they drive your score.
- Treat your first daily run with care: replays are only for practice and do not reach the board.
