Jump If You Can!

Jump If You Can! is a 2D precision platformer where you time jumps around obstacles and a timer that controls when you can jump. Your jumping ability changes as each level progresses, so you must adapt your timing to both the surroundings and the current state of your jump.

Jumping mechanics

Some levels switch your ability to jump on and off at a set pace. In others, your jumping strength gradually decreases and increases; some combine both systems. Your ability to jump can also depend on the platform you are standing on.

A green-blue flash on your character shows your current jumping ability. The sprite flashes when you can jump and stops flashing when you cannot. When jumping strength varies gradually, the flash’s intensity reflects its level between maximum and null. Acceleration before a jump also plays an important role in the game.

Levels and play

The game has unique levels, minimalist graphics, responsive controls and unlimited lives. You can control the character with the keyboard’s arrow keys or W-A-S-D, or use an Xbox 360 controller.
