IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE PLAYING

________________________________________________________________________________

You need to press SPACE in order to play and A/D to navigate the menus.

The leaderboard DOES NOT work in the web build. It is not necessary to the gameplay, and is practically impossible to get working inside of itch.io. However, on either of the downloadable builds below, if you open the leaderboard it will submit your high score and you can see others throughout the globe.

________________________________________________________________________________

Stay alive as long as possible in the action-packed arcade platformer where all the walls are constantly falling!

________________________________________________________________________________

Gameplay

________________________________________________________________________________

For the first 3 seconds, you have the entire bottom to walk around, and then it goes away. You need to use your wall jumps and double jumps to parkour on the falling platforms and stay in the air.

You die if you touch the spikes or fall. So you have to be careful.

____________________________________

There are different kinds of platforms. 

____________________________________

Vertical platforms spawn and fall normally and provide a place to recharge double jumps on top and you can wall jump between them. 

____________________________________

Spiked vertical platforms spawn and fall just like the regular vertical platforms, but they have on side covered in spikes. If you touch that side, you'll die, but you can safely land and wall jump on the top and opposite side respectfully.

____________________________________

Spiked horizontal platforms spawn and fall normally, except they are horizontal. You can stand on the entire top surface and wall jump on the left and right sides, but if you get caught underneath, you will be killed by the spikes.

____________________________________

Temporary platforms don't fall, don't have spikes, and don't have obstructions. They will stay there indefinitely unless you land on them, in which they will be destroyed 3 seconds later. 

____________________________________

Speed boost vertical platforms are kind of like the spiked vertical platforms, but instead of spikes, they have a speed boost which will launch you in the direction the arrows point. 

____________________________________

Coin vertical platforms are just like the speed boost vertical platforms, except instead of speed boosts, they spawn with coins, which are explained below.

________________________________________________________________________________

Power-Ups

________________________________________________________________________________

Coins give you +5 points. 

____________________________________

Double jump boosts  give you +3 jumps on top of the double jump.

____________________________________

Pauses  stop the platforms from falling for 3 seconds.

________________________________________________________________________________

End of Life Plan

________________________________________________________________________________

Hyperfall does have an online leaderboard, but that service is free. If it ever goes offline, players can still enjoy the game forever on their personal build or in the browser on itch.io.
