Piton Zip

Piton Zip is a portrait arcade game about descending a bright quarry shaft on a hook and line. Tap a wall to throw the hook, zip toward the latch point and choose your next landing. Watch line strain and remaining line, avoid Watchers and Crawlers, and collect iron, copper and quartz as the shaft opens below you. Every drop is a balance of depth, equipment wear and a safe return. Plant one checkpoint during a descent to create a future starting point. End the run by hand before integrity reaches zero, or risk losing part of the haul as scrap. Between drops, use recovered ore to forge and repair hooks and lines. Copper extends hook reach, iron improves pull and equipment capacity, and quartz strengthens line gear. Equip the setup that matches the next descent. Five connected rooms organise the loop: • Shaft for live descents • Hook Rack for crafting, repair and equipment • Claim Stakes for checkpoint starts • Nodule Tray for ore, haul briefs and the drop log • Profile for the miner card, progress board and marks Carry a haul brief into a run, meet its ore and depth conditions, and build a record of completed drops. Progress is stored on the device. Piton Zip is a casual mining descent game built around hook timing, route choice, gear wear and repeat runs.
