Description
Xjump is a jumping game where you are in a Falling Tower. The floor you are standing on is sinking with
the rest of the building; you will die once the floor gives way (disappears under the bottom of the
display). To survive, you have to jump onto the upper floors of the tower. Because the entire tower is
sinking, the upper floors will soon collapse, too, so you have to keep on jumping to higher floors.
Your score is counted by how many floors you jump before you either fall off while trying to reach the
next floor, or the floor you are standing on collapses.
Game Controls
To begin the game, press the Space-bar from the highscore screen.
Once the game begins, movement is controlled by the Left and Right arrow keys. To jump, use the Up arrow
key.
Note that hitting the Left or Right arrow keys many times will cause the player to go faster. You can use
this to reach floors that are far away. But be careful not to jump too far and miss! You can also change
your speed while jumping through midair. If your reflexes are fast enough, you can salvage a bad jump
this way. Good luck!
To quit the game, press shift-Q.
