PotatoQuest

PotatoQuest is a fast, replay-heavy endless platformer. You fling a cosmetically-questionable potato from platform to platform while the world auto-scrolls and speeds up beneath you — drag to aim, release to launch, and don't fall off the back of the screen. The further you get, the higher your score.

How it plays

One control: drag anywhere to aim, release to launch the potato. Gravity does the rest. The screen scrolls left on its own and gets faster the longer you survive, so every launch has to land you somewhere you can launch again. Miss, and the left edge catches up with you.

That single loop powers all three modes — they only differ in who you're playing against:

• Solo Quest — just you and your high score. No internet required. Your best score is the key that unlocks everything cosmetic: new potato skins (11 of them, from Partially Peeled all the way to Gold, Robo and Cactus) and new worlds (Mountains free, Desert at 10, City at 25).
• Bracket Battle — the same run, but against an asynchronous ghost of a real player in your tier. There are seven tiers — Spud Sprout, Tater Tot, Couch Potato, Hot Potato, Mashed Master, Golden Spud, Spud Royale — and you're slotted by high score. Out-score the ghost and you win coins equal to your tier number, which buy accessories. Bracket runs still count toward your high score.
• Daily Duel — one curated course shared by every player worldwide for 24 hours. You race a ghost of the day's leader; whoever posts the highest score wears the crown until someone beats it. Daily runs don't touch your high score — it's its own ladder.

Built solo, with AI

Built solo by Harry Mitchell as the first release under Starch Development. Every line of the 2026 rebuild was written through an AI coding workflow, and every skin, accessory and background was AI-generated then hand-cleaned. The full story is in Rebuilding PotatoQuest with AI.
