Spring Lisp Game Jam 2026 entry.
A precision platformer with the focus on obtaining and maintaining speed.
Collect powerups, escape the caverns, and reach for the stars!
A write-up about the development process: https://andreyor.st/posts/2026-05-24-spring-lisp-game-jam-2026
Tips for playing:
- When doing extended jumps, release the direction buttons to avoid losing speed
- Press the slide button preemptively instead of timing your slides
- Release the slide button when under a low ceiling, the slide will continue, and you'll be able to jump immediately after (jumping doesn't work when the slide button is held)
- If you don't know how to make a certain jump, try doing it without jumping (????)
- Game menu features a static camera and an option to toggle off music
Share your completion time and retries!

Made a TAS speedrun for this game with a few skips and some crazy movement https://youtu.be/OyRDwPJh-m4

great game, but I hate that I have to release down in order to jump. it makes things way harder for no reason

well, it's hard to jump from a sliding position... I mean, the character here is no Kazuya Mishima from Tekken nor Richter Belmont from Castlevania :)
