About

Synopsis:

A lil guy who's all alone in the world finds another lil guy flying around. What will he discover in the end? 

Theme: Discovery

Controls:

Move: left, right arrows

Jump: up arrow

Push down/fall faster: hold down arrow (hint: use this while in mid-air to fall exactly where you want, or on rotating platforms to spin them faster)

Expand screen: hold spacebar

Restart level: backspace

Exit to menu: Escape

Mute/unmute: click volume icon in top left corner

Hints:

Get to the flag to complete the level

Create momentum while on the ground since you cannot move left or right while in the air under normal circumstances

Blue platforms are just regular floors, but you can jump off the side of them 

Hollow blue platforms are really bouncy

Brown colored platforms/balls can't be jumped off of. Only left, right, and down arrow keys will work while standing on them

Brown balls will collide with everything

Brown platforms will not collide with blue walls

Known bugs/oddities:

Sometimes the player just disappears. Not sure why. If that happens just hit the backspace to restart the level. 

In the beginning, I had issues with the player flying through platforms, but I haven't seen that for a while.

The bounce walls can be quite temperamental based on which side of the player's polygon is colliding with it. 

The physics aren't perfect. Sometimes weird things happen and the lil guy will go flying. I see it as more of a fun feature though.
