Rush is a game about completing a platformer level as quickly as possible. You have to get from one gate to the other.

There are 10 levels to complete. At the end of each level, time you had left is added on to your next 10 seconds. You have 3 lives, lives are lost by running out of time, or falling out of the map.

W to jump,A to move left, D to move right. Click in the center area of the buttons on the main menu, sort of forgot to fix that :D

Pretty funny game, but the gravity is too damn high ;)

Huhuhuhu nice one! This one made me laugh (in the good way for sure!). Good job!

Good ol' concept, all the basics are present :)
Missing some easing (="acceleration") though.

I like the fast paced action. You might consider making it a bit slower but overall very nice for 48 hours!

Whacky jump mechanic, but it actually seemed to fit. I think something interesting could be made by experimenting more with such fast jump times, instead of the super precise normal jumping systems.

Yeah, the gravity is out of control on this game. Not a bad platformer otherwise.

I found it quite difficult to control the character with any accuracy.

I want to play it, but game isn't launching on my Win7 64 bit, Java 7 :) After double click on "run.bat" file I can see console window for about 1 second and then it's exiting. When I try launching manually the .jar file game in general does not starting :)

Nice idea, the gravity and speed makes this one a tough one.

Muciojadpl, you need to have java on your path :) I develop on 64 bit win 7, so it is not that.

Crazy gravity, pretty good otherwise.
Also, this game has the best font of any game I've played. There are a few burrs on some of the letters, but it's a very nice looking font.

I wish I could use arrow keys + space key for jump.
