Bat Flapper

Game premise and mechanics

Bat Flapper is a 3D arcade runner where players control a bat navigating through dark cave tunnels. The game centers on using echolocation, which sends out sonar pulses to reveal hidden obstacles and pathways. You must manage your sonar energy, which continuously drains during gameplay, and the only way to recharge it is by eating glowing bugs found throughout the caves.

Resource management

As you race through the tunnels, you face decisions about safety and risk. Collecting glowing bugs often means leaving the safer paths to venture into darker areas where obstacles are not revealed until you send out sonar pulses. Balancing the need to recharge your sonar with the desire to avoid danger is a core element of the gameplay.
