Ragdoll Launcher

How to Play

Your goal is beautifully simple: stuff a ragdoll into a cannon, aim, fire, and send it flying as far as humanly possible. The distance you achieve determines your coins earned, which you then spend on upgrades to launch even farther next time.

This gameplay loop of launch, earn, upgrade, repeat is what makes Ragdoll Launcher so addictive. Every upgrade feels meaningful, and watching your ragdoll pinball across the landscape never gets old.

Controls

• Mouse — Aim the cannon by moving your cursor to set the angle
• Left Click — Fire the cannon
• Mouse (mid-air) — Gently drag to slightly adjust your ragdoll's trajectory

The angle of your cannon at the moment of firing is the single most important factor in each run. A steep angle gets height but less distance. A flat angle covers ground but misses aerial boost opportunities. Finding the sweet spot around 35 to 45 degrees works well for most situations.

Boosts and Pickups

The terrain is littered with objects that can extend your flight dramatically:

• Trampolines — Bounce your ragdoll back into the air on contact. Aim your mid-air adjustments toward these whenever you see them.
• TNT Crates — Explode on contact, launching your ragdoll with a massive burst of speed. These are the biggest distance boosters in the game.
• Boost Pads — Flat pads on the ground that give a speed increase when your ragdoll slides over them.
• Coins — Float in the air and on the ground. Collect them during flight to spend on upgrades between rounds.

Prioritizing Boosts

Trampolines and TNT are your best friends. A clean launch that hits a trampoline, bounces into a TNT crate, then hits another trampoline can double your distance compared to a straight flight. Always adjust your trajectory mid-air toward the nearest boost object.

Upgrade Strategy

You earn coins based on distance traveled and coins collected during flight. Spend them on upgrades between runs:

• Launch Power — Increase the initial cannon force. Upgrade this early since it affects every single run.
• Bounciness — Make your ragdoll bounce higher off surfaces and trampolines.
• Magnet — Attract nearby coins during flight so you miss fewer pickups.
• TNT Power — Increase the boost strength of TNT crates.

The most efficient upgrade path is maxing Launch Power first, then investing in Bounciness. This combination gives you the best raw distance per run.

Pro Tips

• Focus on a clean launch angle before worrying about anything else. A bad launch makes every subsequent bounce weaker.
• Make mid-air adjustments early rather than late. Sudden corrections near the ground waste momentum.
• Save up for bulk upgrades instead of spending a few coins after every run. The impact is more noticeable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best cannon angle? Somewhere between 35 and 45 degrees works best for most setups. Adjust slightly based on where trampolines and TNT are positioned in the terrain.

How do I get more coins? Earn coins by traveling farther and collecting the floating coins mid-flight. Upgrading the Magnet stat helps attract coins you would otherwise miss.

Is there an end to the game? There is no final level. The goal is continually beating your personal best distance through upgrades and better launch technique.
