Play instantly in Safari (Mac with Force Touch required): https://stick-hero-pressure.vercel.app/ How to play: - Press & hold to grow the stick - Harder press = longer stick (real pressure sensitivity!) - Release to drop and cross platforms - Hit red center for double score A quick weekend experiment with Safari's pressure API. Super simple, but surprisingly addictive.
