Details

The full picture

Written from verified facts; labels mark how strong each statement's evidence is.

01

What the game is

You're It! is competitive tag: a fast 2.5D party platformer released September 27, 2026 at $6.79, where being chased is bad and glowing is worse.

Eight blobs run, wall-jump, slide, grapple, dodge, flop and shove each other through crowded arenas filled with movement toys and unpredictable hazards.

The controls are easy to pick up, but the developer notes that chaining everything together while seven other players bounce around takes practice.

02

How a round works

Hot Potato is the main event: one player starts with the glow, a fuse counts down, and tagging someone passes it to them.

Whoever holds the glow when time runs out explodes into a ball of goo and is eliminated - the round continues until one blob remains.

Surviving longer earns more GOO across a five-round tour of different arenas.

03

The arenas

Every round moves to a new enclosed arena with its own layout and gameplay quirk: portals, gravity changes, bumpers, wind tunnels, sticky floors, conveyor belts, magnetic fields and more.

Movement is the game itself - grapple swings, wall-jump boosts, spot-dodging a tag, the Tactical Flop for direction changes, and shoving rivals into danger.

It is a skill-based party game in the tradition of 2.5D platform party classics, built around one clear elimination mode (BOUNDED: official Steam description, checked 2026-09-28).
