About Jumple Up

Jumple Up is a browser arcade game by NoImChris, billed on its own site as a daily arcade game by Chris. It started on itch.io and now lives at jumpleupgame.com, where it runs in the page or in a fullscreen version. It is still marked as in development, with updates posted as devlogs.

Each run is a climb: you jump from platform to platform and your score rises with your height. The platforms are laid out by procedural generation from a seed that changes daily, so the climb is new each day but the same for every player. Some platforms move, some shrink, some carry spikes, and the devlogs describe the difficulty rising as you go higher until it levels off at a score of 400.

Every day each player has 10 attempts to post a score to the leaderboard, and the best of them counts. After those ten you can keep playing as long as you like, but the scores are no longer posted. The menu shows how many attempts you have left, your best score and a countdown to the next reset, which the developer set to midnight GMT+8. Optional ghosts show other runs while you climb, and a Share button copies your result to the clipboard.

It suits players who like a quick skill run with a fixed daily target: a few short attempts, a score to beat and a board to compare against.

How to play Jumple Up

1. Open jumpleupgame.com (or the fullscreen page) and enter a username.
2. Start a run on the day's climb and jump from platform to platform to go up.
3. Avoid the spikes and watch the moving and shrinking platforms; a fall or a hit ends the attempt.
4. Use your 10 daily attempts; your best score is posted to the leaderboard.
5. Check the leaderboard, share your score and come back after the countdown for a new climb.

Tips

• Since the climb is the same all day, use early attempts to learn the tricky sections before your best run.
• Leaving a run in the middle of a leaderboard attempt costs you that attempt, so commit to each one.
• Turn ghosts on to see how others handled a section, or off in the options if they distract you.
• The game gets harder as your score rises, up to 400, so a steady start matters more than speed.
