Directory Dash is a free, one-tap Geometry-Dash-style rage game that puts you in the founder's seat. Your startup (a cube) has to run, jump, and dodge its way through 10 fake startup directories to get listed, dying constantly to red spikes (rejections), 1-star reviews, captcha blocks, and cookie popups.
It's built by Blastra, an AI tool that automates real directory submissions for founders. The game exists because we've felt the actual grind of submitting to dozens of directories, and turned that pain into something funny instead of just annoying.
The level is hand-tuned and solver-verified: every jump timing window is beatable, but the back half gets down to 3-4 frame windows, so most players die a lot before they see a flag. Checkpoints are on by default so a run keeps its progress, but turning them off for a clean, zero-checkpoint finish is the real challenge and the only way to unlock the "miracle" ending. After each run you get a shareable result card, usually a rejection stamp, with buttons to post it to X or LinkedIn. The footer is honest about what's fake: the 10 directories in the game are fictional, and there's a running list of the real directories Blastra actually submitted Directory Dash to, wins and rejections included, alongside every badge we genuinely earned.
