What is Sir Retry?
Sir Retry is a hardcore 2D platformer set in a burning medieval kingdom, where the king wants a fortress taken and you're his favorite hero for the job. Eight handcrafted levels stand in your way, while a herald comments on every death and the king breaks the fourth wall to tease you. Apparently, royal service doesn't include dignity.
How to play Sir Retry
1. Move and jump in story mode
Use A / D or ← / → to move, and Space / W / ↑ to jump. Hold the jump key longer to jump higher.
2. Swing or return to the bonfire
Press J for a sword strike. Hold Q to self-destruct and return to the bonfire.
3. Restart, pause, and chase stars
R restarts and Esc pauses. Collect all coins and beat the timer to earn three stars on each level.
4. Learn player one's controls
In two-player mode, P1 uses A / D to move, W to jump, and 1 to strike. Hold 2 to self-destruct.
5. Learn player two's controls
P2 uses ← / → to move, ↑ to jump, and N to strike. Hold M to self-destruct.
6. Build some friendship problems
Use the mouse to place items during the two-player build phase. Build traps on the map to sabotage your friend.
Game features
Eight handcrafted levels
Spikes, goblins, bridges, and checkpoints fill eight levels in a burning medieval kingdom. The fortress isn't going to take itself.
A herald for every horrible landing
Every death gets commentary from the herald, turning your failures into dark medieval humor.
A king with no fourth wall
The king talks directly to you and teases you like a friend in the room. He sometimes even throws in a fake pause.
Coins, timers, and three stars
Each level offers a three-star goal: collect every coin and beat the timer. Just finishing isn't the whole challenge.
Shared-keyboard sabotage
Two players share one keyboard in a mode inspired by Ultimate Chicken Horse. Build traps and sabotage your friend.
Three language options
Sir Retry includes English, Slovak, and Ukrainian.
A few things to remember
Jump height is in your hands
Story-mode jumps go higher when you hold the jump key longer.
💡Hold Space, W, or ↑ longer when you need more height.
The bonfire has a shortcut
Holding Q in story mode self-destructs your hero and sends you back to the bonfire.
💡Hold Q when you want to return to the bonfire.
Why play Sir Retry?
Failure gets a punchline

More than reaching the finish
The coin-and-timer requirements give you a three-star target on all eight levels.
Sabotage someone you know
Local two-player trap building lets you turn a shared keyboard into a very personal rivalry.
