Wallcling
A gecko, a crystal mine and 240 single-screen rooms. Cling to any surface for exactly one second, then let go. Our debut, and still our hardest.

Every frame counts.
Every wall sticks.
Quartz Gecko Games is a small independent studio making tight, honest pixel-art precision platformers. Instant respawns, frame-exact controls and speedrun leaderboards built in from day one.

Our games
Four platformers, one philosophy: if you missed the jump, it was your thumb, not our hitbox.
Geode Drop
A vertical descent through a hollow geode. Fall fast, crack crystals for momentum and never touch the glowing walls. Daily seeded shafts.
SteamSwitch
DAILY SEED → global board
Facet Run
Rotate the level in 90° turns mid-jump. Every crystal facet is a new floor. Ghost replays let you race your own best run.
Steam
GHOSTS → race your PB
Prism Lizard
In development. Split light into colours and only stand on the platforms that match. A rainbow-coloured nightmare for your reflexes.

// LEADERBOARDS
Built for the split
Speedrunning isn't a bonus mode in our games. It's the foundation.
- In-game timer accurate to the millisecond, paused on load screens.
- Opt-in leaderboards per level, per category, per week.
- Replay files so verifiers can watch every input.
- Assist modes for everyone else, with runs kept on a separate board.

// ABOUT
A tiny studio, tuning frames
We're a handful of developers who grew up retrying the same jump a hundred times and loving it. We hand-draw every sprite, tune every jump curve by feel and playtest with speedrunners before anything ships.
60frames per second, locked, on every platform we ship.
0.0srespawn time. Death is a comma, not a full stop.
