About the Game

Pole vaulting in real life is both difficult and dangerous
Not unlike this game

POLE VAULT is a precision platformer where you play as a stretchy newt. The newt's passion for pole vaulting lets them launch high into the sky. Vault your way to the top of the tower to achieve victory. In POLE VAULT, you'll climb up a single, huge tower. You can expect your performance to be evaluated when you reach the apex.

The end of your pole is a cursor that you control. Drag your pole into the ground while moving, time your release, and be sent flying through the air. Catch yourself on the edges of platforms. Pogo bounce directly from a fall to maintain the highest speed.
