A downloadable experience for Windows

A frustrating platformer where you are a blob and you must shoot your blobs to propel yourself. A tremendous surprise awaits those who make it to the top.

Press left mouse click to shoot. You can also hold it down to shoot continuously. The closer your mouse is to the character, the less power will be used.

Blob Bounce is the realization of an idea that occurred to me in my dreams.  To me, this game is the combination of Getting Over It combined with a rocket jumping soldier from TF2. Art and polish are minimal since I did not want to devote hours improving my meager artistic skills at the expense of gameplay improvements.

Every jump has been tested and is possible. The game is not meant to be difficult; most jumps can be done in a few tries. I have carefully adjusted the platforms and distances to be forgiving, but not trivial.  If you get lost, the arrows on the way are meant to guide you and not to trick you. However, you may find alternative paths to be easier or more reliable.

Although falling down may seem like a lack of progress, one could argue that it actually leads to more opportunity for practice and mastery. It should be much easier to return to your previous position.

If any bugs are found, please let me know.

Background, images, sounds, and UI are all WIP and subject to change.
