Space or mouse 1 let you jump, you are able to cling to the top\/bottom of platforms but unable to directly move. The goal is to reach the exit of each stage as quickly as possible with as few jumps.\r\n\r\nSome simple tips: You do not conserve inertia so you always jump straight up\/down. Some stages appear very difficult but might have a very direct path.\r\n\r\n\r\nMade with: Unity 3.5 free and sfxr.\r\n\r\n\r\nNative Client:\r\nIf you are not on Windows\/Mac you can play the game in a browser that supports native client execution (chrome\/firefox). You just need to enable it in the broswer, in chrome go to chrome:\/\/flags and enable Native Client. Then head to the webplayer page for it here: http:\/\/www.animationbychance.com\/LD48_26\/WebPlayer_nacl.html\r\n\r\nI'm actually reasonably happy with how this turned out.","title":"Bounce"}
