Bet Your Life

Wager your lives in this super-tough platformer!

Start the game with a bank of lives. Each level, you'll wager how many lives you think you'll need to beat that level. If you run out of lives in your bank, it's game over. Finish the game with as many lives in your bank as you can!

*​Supports keyboard or Xbox Controller*

Too challenging? There's a secret hotkey that lets you skip levels. There is also a restart level hotkey in case you get stuck. Find them here: https://pastebin.com/ZFCQ2BaK

Detailed Rules

- Each level will have a par value which is how many lives the level might take to beat.
- If you bet that you can do better than par, you will be rewarded with extra lives.
- If you wager more lives than par, you won't be rewarded and will lose the extra lives no matter what.
- If you run out of lives on a level, you'll lose lives from your bank equal to par.

Try to beat all 15 levels without running out of lives! The amount of remaining lives is your score.
