Instructions

This is a physics based puzzle platform game, featuring momentum based gameplay. The movement is a tribute to the game Fury of the Furries, by Capcom in 1990. The controls for the game are listed below.

Hold the jump key down to bounce higher and higher.

When you hold down jump, your character becomes super bouncy, and retains his kenetic energy with each bounce. If you fall 10 ft, you will bounce 10 ft.

Proper mastery of the jump is essential to solving the later puzzles. But its simple. Holding the Jump button makes you Bouncy. It also makes you jump if you weren't bouncing already. Hold it down longer to build up a good bounce. Thats all there is too it!

As you travel you will encounter colorful cubes that jitter and bounce around. If you manage to jump on top of them and hit them from above, you can split them into smaller cubes. If they land on top of you, or if they're much larger then you, they'll push you all over the place, so watch out!

Every now and then, two cubes will merge into one cube. The new cube will have a color that is a blend of the other two cubes, and is the size of both of them combined.

Have fun. And remember, if you get stuck, Think Outside the Box!
