About Jump Rope

Jump when the rotating rope reaches the feet and keep a streak alive as the rope accelerates. A jump starts with vertical velocity -12 and gravity adds 0.6 each update.

Rope speed starts at 0.04 and increases by 0.001 per point up to 0.08. Successful rope passes are debounced for 500ms so one pass cannot score repeatedly.

How to Play Jump Rope

1Tap or press Space to jump when the rope is approaching foot level.

2Let the character land before triggering the next jump.

3Keep matching the shorter timing window as rope speed increases.

Jump Rope Rules

  • A successful jump over the rope adds 1 point.
  • Being grounded when the rope reaches the feet causes a trip and ends the run.
  • Rope speed cannot increase beyond 0.08.
