JOTT: Jump Over The Time is a fast-paced 2D precision platformer built around real-time hero swapping, mouse aiming, and movement mastery.
Designed for keyboard and mouse, the game combines tight platforming with free-aim targeting for maximum control and skill expression.
Use a mouse-controlled cursor to place spells, interact with the environment, and execute precise actions while platforming at full speed. Combined with instant hero swapping, this system lets you chain abilities, bypass cooldowns, and create powerful movement combos on the fly.
Combining abilities across heroes opens countless routing possibilities and rewards creative problem-solving.
With 6 playable heroes and 12 unique spells, every level becomes a challenge of execution and decision-making. Choosing when to swap heroes, where to aim, and which spell to use can drastically change your route, and your final time.
Levels can be completed at your own pace, but earning Gold Medals demands perfect timing, precise aiming, and a deep understanding of how abilities interact. Mastery comes from constantly refining your strategy and optimizing every action.
