Captain Willie’s River Run is a playful tribute to the 1928 animated Public Domain short film (Steamboat Willie) that launched a global era of cartoon storytelling — now in the public domain.
This endless platformer captures the charm of early animation with bouncing rubber-hose characters, bold black-and-white visuals, and classic cartoon sound design. Your mission? Jump from platform to platform, dodge flying and crawling enemies, collect extra lives, and climb the global leaderboard!
