This game is a simple platformer, minimalistic in the sense that you can only move and jump (and die) and can only be killed by spikes. Other than that there are blocks that disappear under your feet and checkpoints to respawn at, that's about it.

The game consists of four levels and possibly a secret level...

The game is made from scratch in JavaScript using HTML5 canvas, so it requires a modern browser (tested primarily in Chrome). jQuery is used for handling some initialization and window resizing, other than that there are no special libraries used.

All the graphics and levels are done in Photoshop. A level conversion script written in Pike converts the images into level files (JSON).

Currently there's no sound but hopefully I'll have time to add that as well.

The game has taken ~14 hours to make.

Full source will be available on github.

Enjoy! :)
