Run, double jump and beat the countdown

Jiffy is a minimalist pixel platformer in black, pink and off-white. You play a tiny white cube wearing a pink cap, with four hearts and a countdown that starts at 90. A billboard at the start of level 1 explains the moves: walk left and right, jump, and jump again in mid-air. Ahead wait red-outlined blocks, spike pits, piles of crumbly dark blocks and pink blob enemies in little black hats.

How to play Jiffy

  1. Move with A and D or the arrow keys.
  2. Jump with Space, and press it again in the air for a double jump.
  3. Get past the spikes and blobs on the way to the end of the level.
  4. Finish before the countdown reaches zero.
