Play Kicks Online
You're a sneaker bouncing through brutal obstacle courses—what starts as cute platforming quickly turns into desperate flinging between moving hazards. The janky animations and blippy soundtrack make every failure weirdly satisfying.
Game Overview
Man, Kicks is such a weird little MS-DOS game—and I mean that in the best way possible. You play as a sneaker (seriously, just a shoe) bouncing through these obstacle courses that start off easy but get brutal fast. The first level lulls you into thinking "Oh, this is cute," and then suddenly you're flinging yourself between moving platforms like your life depends on it.
The pixel art hasn't aged perfectly, but there's something charming about how janky the animations are when your shoe faceplants into a wall. And the soundtrack? Pure 90s bleeps and bloops that somehow make failing feel fun. I kept replaying the same level for half an hour just to beat my high score—it's that kind of game.
If you've got a soft spot for retro oddities or just want to see what gaming looked like before everything got so polished, this one's a trip. Just don't blame me when you start dreaming about pixelated sneakers.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
