Salamander Daddy

Axolotl Reef Rush

Meet Pip. A cheerful axolotl, a dangerous reef, and five Glow-powered ways to become temporarily unreasonable.

  • Buildv9.6.0

Swim in any direction through Moonlit Reef, Silly Current and Starlight Trench. Thread curved pearl ribbons, chain clean moves into Flow, and spend Glow on powers when the reef stops being polite.

Three levels, three ridiculous bosses, and a victory screen where everyone gets better.

What's in it

  • Flow chains with a twelve-action Perfect Current cap
  • Five powers: Fin Frenzy, Bubble Halo, Tiny Tide, Pearl Pull and Starburst
  • Standard and Calm Current modes, with separate records
  • Persisted Motion Auto/Reduced setting that respects your OS preference

Pip

The axolotl

Pale pistachio-green with darker speckles, six feathery green gills, warm light-brown eyes and a permanent open smile. Cheerful, not regal — no crown.

Baron of Bubbles · Moonlit Reef

The first boss. Opens a meditation studio afterwards.

DJ Clawdia

The Crustacean Sensation · Silly Current

The second boss. Books the after-party.

Grand Glimmermaw

Cosmic Snack Enthusiast · Starlight Trench

The final boss, who eventually discovers that friendship is more filling than axolotls.
