This game is significantly smoother if you download the .exe file, but should be playable in browser** (including on mobile).

If your jump distance at the start feels way too low, try downloading the game and playing in a smaller window.

KNOWN BUGS

**On some monitors/browsers, the jump distance is perpetually set to be almost nothing. I've yet to figure out why this happens, though to my knowledge nobody has experienced the bug on Firefox. It seems fine on most setups but on some is genuinely unplayable. Sorry about that!

It's also possible to get stuck violently colliding with corners, I think due to high velocity and definitely more often in browser.

Some phones may have issues submitting final score to the leaderboard.
