EarthNight is an illustrated epic that follows Sydney and Stanley as they attempt to return to Earth from space. Dragons have taken over the planet, and the only way back is to run across their massive, serpent-like backs while diving through the atmosphere. Every frame of the game is hand-painted, creating a visual style that feels like a living painting. With deep mechanics and a high skill ceiling, it’s a runner for people who love classic platformers.
Dinsun Expert Review
Our Expert Score
EarthNight is easily one of the most visually striking games on the App Store. The hand-painted art style is so dense and detailed that you almost want the game to slow down just so you can appreciate the background layers. However, the game has no intention of slowing down. It’s a relentless, high-energy runner that demands precision and mastery of its physics.
While many mobile runners feel like they are built for casual play, EarthNight feels like it was built for the hardcore crowd. Learning how to manipulate Stanley’s weight or Sydney’s agility to stay airborne is incredibly rewarding. The soundtrack by Chipzel is the icing on the cake, providing a driving 8-bit pulse that keeps your heart racing as you plummet toward the Earth. It can be punishingly difficult at times, but the 'just one more run' factor is undeniably strong.

Tips & Walkthrough
As you reach the head of a dragon, you must time your final strike. Landing a 'Great' or 'Perfect' hit provides more loot and a smoother transition to the next skydive phase.
Gameplays
The game alternates between free-falling through the air to choose your next dragon and high-speed platforming across dragon scales, where jumping and bouncing off enemies is key to maintaining momentum.
