We just lost another legend today at just 30 😔 He was only 14 when he turned a simple stick figure running through obstacles into a game played by 43 millions players. Now, the gaming community is mourning Manuel Otto at just 30. 🕊️ The creator and owner of Stick Run has died following a tragic incident during a Twitch livestream. The game’s official team confirmed his passing and asked fans to respect the privacy of everyone involved, avoid speculation and not circulate footage of the incident. Otto began developing Stick Run in 2010 after teaching himself how to build games. What started as a teenager’s project exploded on Facebook, eventually reaching more than 43 million players worldwide and becoming one of the memorable browser games of the social-network era. Its success later carried the game onto mobile platforms. For many players, Stick Run wasn’t some massive studio production. It was the game they opened after school, competed in with friends and kept restarting because one more run always sounded possible. Manuel Otto created something at 14 that became part of millions of childhoods. Thirty was far too young for his own story to end. Rest in peace, Manuel. 🤍
