## Description

Leap Day is a fast-paced action platformer that serves you a brand-new level each day. Each day features a unique location, different traps and monsters, and a level that all players share for that day. Complete the level to earn a gold trophy stamp on your calendar—every day, if you’re good enough. The game uses simple one-touch controls and portrait orientation for on-the-go play, with colorful pixel art that nods to retro classics.

Note: The game includes third-party advertising and cross-promotion for other Nitrome games, which can be removed with a one-time in-app purchase. Terms are available at nitrome.com/eula. Leap Day is a labor of love from the Nitrome team, designed to deliver daily challenge and fun.
