About the Game

Use bombs to move around and reach the top of a universe filled with obstacles, and find help to regain your human form. Watch out for falls! Are you ready to take on this challenge?

You play as a skeleton stuck in a flower pot.

No one really knows why.

The goal is to reach the summit and meet someone who might be able to help you regain your human form.

People are extremely friendly in this world.

  • Hold down the left mouse button to aim where you want to send the bomb.

  • Release the left mouse button to fire the bomb.

  • Hold down the right mouse button to control the power of the explosion.

  • Release the right mouse button to trigger the explosion or hold down the right click until maximum power is reached.

Pretty simple, right?

A colorful pixel art universe and a medieval fantasy setting.

It seems that stylish outfits are hiding everywhere...

If, after completing the game and its various possible endings, you still want more, there are specific challenges remaining in each area of the game.

Pssst... this is for experts. :)

On your marks, get set, fall!

This game is inspired by the famous “Jump King” by Nexile.
