User guide

You guide a square through a maze of platforms without letting it hit the top of the screen. If it hits the top you lose. Your score is generated on how long you manage to survive. Unlike Falldown, this game has powerups. These powerups can help you or go against you so be careful as it is completely random.

The objective is to keep falling down and avoid reaching the top. If your character touches the top of the screen you die.

Note that you can change the guy on the main menu.
