About SHOVEL UP
SHOVEL UP (found at the URL /play) is, by its own description, the hardest shovel-climbing game you'll ever play.
The formula is pure Getting Over It-style punishment: you have a shovel, you have a construction site, and every jump matters. One mistake can send you all the way back to the bottom, and the site offers no checkpoints to catch you.
How high can you climb? The game runs free in the browser and will happily eat an evening.
How to Play
Use the shovel to push, hook and launch yourself up the construction site. Every movement is manual and physical — plant the shovel, leverage your body, and commit. There are no checkpoints, so protect your progress: a single slip can cost you the whole climb.
Controls
Mouse / Keyboard – control the shovel and body movement (see the itch page for specifics)
Tips & Tricks
Slow is smooth: most falls come from rushing a plant-and-launch.
Commit to jumps fully — half-swings leave you hanging over a long drop.
Expect to lose everything at least once; that's the genre's deal.
