Icy Tower: Roadster Edition

Harold's tower has a new climber: the 2026 Tesla Roadster. It backflips up the floors on cold-gas thrusters that fire from where the real car's nozzles are.

Downloads

File For First launch
Icy-Tower-Roadster-mac.zip (11.1 MB) Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer), macOS 13 Ventura or newer Unzip, drag to Applications, then right-click the app → Open → Open. On macOS 15 or newer, if there's no Open button: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.
Icy-Tower-Roadster-windows.zip (13.5 MB) Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit Right-click → Extract All, run the game. If SmartScreen says "Windows protected your PC": More info → Run anyway.

macOS and Windows ask once because the apps are not notarized or code-signed. That costs money, and this project takes none.

What's in it

  • The Roadster as a playable character. Original pixel art, 64 pre-rendered flip angles, ice-cyan cold-gas jets from the real nozzle layout: 4 rear main, 4 lift jets near the wheels, 2 nose laterals.
  • The original game, faithfully. Every platform runs the same C core, transcribed from Icy Tower 1.3.1.
    • Mac: 16/16 of the original game's replays reproduce their recorded score, floor and combo.
    • Windows: 16/16, tick for tick.
    • Web: 16/16, tick for tick.
    • All three: 145,141 per-tick full-state hashes, identical on Mac, Windows and Web (combined chain ce0ab7382a9dd329).
  • Four climbers: the Roadster (the default), Harold, Disco Dave and the Template. Press C to switch. Every new game starts on the classic ice floors.
  • Same keys as 2001: ← → run, Space jump, Esc pause, R restart, M mute.
