Ladder Lad platform game Lift Off, Laugh on PC and Switch

Lift Off, Laugh in Ladder Lad: 2D Precision Platform Game


Debut Demo Launches Ahead of Steam Next Fest

Ladder Lad, the 2D precision platform game all about ladders from BUCK Games, begins the amusing ascent with a debut demo available now ahead of October Steam Next Fest.

Ladder Lad’s strange world was made possible through a collaboration between BUCK Games and BUCK, a global creative company serving brands like Nike, Apple, Netflix, IBM, Airbnb, as well as contributing to the likes of Netflix’s Love, Death + Robots and Sony Pictures Animation’s Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse.The Steam Next Fest demo features the first two levels of Ladder Lad. A trio of bonus levels will challenge speedrunning (speed-runging?) abilities and showcase some of the most nefarious obstacles our brave lad will face.


In a world that’s forgotten how to jump


Ladders provide the sole means of vertical mobility. Scale a whimsical ladder-shaped tower with nothing more than a trusty ladder and a knack for creative climbing.

Open your mind to ladderous possibilities beyond mere ascent and descent! Tilt the ladder to bridge gaps. Ride it like a pogo stick to bounce to new heights. Hook it onto anchor points and swing to and fro. Do whatever comes to mind!

Sometimes, challenges require more than imagination alone, but that’s where ladderological advancements come in!

Attach an inflatable hot air balloon to soar, tunnel through danger with the Warped Ladder, or hit the afterburners with the BFL (Big Flying Ladder, of course) to blast off in this one-of-a-kind vertical adventure.

Ladder Lad’s debut demo is available today on PC via Steam as part of Steam Next Fest!
