Vex 6
Vex 6 is a stickman obstacle-course platformer that strips the genre down to movement and timing. You guide a white stick figure through Acts — tight, hand-crafted stages packed with spike pits, swinging axes, spinning saws, moving platforms, and crushing blocks. The visual design is deliberately bare: black shapes on a white background, so nothing pulls your attention away from the gap you are about to mis-time.
The loop is quick: reach the exit portal without dying, or respawn at the last checkpoint and try again. Checkpoints are placed often enough that a mistake never feels catastrophic, but the later Acts string long hazard sequences between them, which keeps the pressure on. Progress feels genuinely earned — each Act you clear is one you had to read, adapt to, and eventually muscle through.
Controls
- Move left / right — A / D or Left / Right arrow
- Jump — W or Up arrow
- Crouch / slide under low gaps — S or Down arrow (hold to stay crouched)
- Wall jump — press toward a wall while airborne, then jump to kick off it
On mobile and tablet, on-screen directional buttons replace the keyboard.
Tips
- Look ahead before you move. At the start of each new section, pause for a moment — the camera shows enough of the layout to spot the next hazard before it kills you.
- Wall jumps are core mechanics, not tricks. The level design from Act 2 onward assumes you can chain them. Get comfortable with the timing in easier spots before the game makes them mandatory.
- Start crouching early. Low-ceiling passages have tight collision; hold Down a step before you reach the gap, not when you are already inside it.
- Treat every checkpoint run as a practice lap. Use each repeat of a section to study the next hazard rather than just reacting — you will see that pattern again on the way to the exit.
Vex 6 suits players who enjoy short, high-difficulty sessions and want the satisfaction of clearing a stage through skill rather than luck. If the series clicks, the earlier Vex games are listed under Platformer on this site.
