Test your reflexes: Improve your skills and reaction time with every playthrough.
Fun is infinite: The fun never stops as you climb higher and higher in an 80s-style arcade game with a modern twist.
Mr. Advisor: A mysterious entity now answers your questions. But beware—knowledge always comes at a price.

1. Run Knight – Run and jump over obstacles in this endless test of reflexes.
2. Floppy Bat – Guide a fragile bat through a gauntlet of deadly spikes. Precision is survival.

### 5/5 — Super fun

A well-polished and addictive, simple game. Controls are responsive. Levels keep you on your toes. A good time killer.

Me jumpy. Heheheheeeee!

### 1/5 — Lỗi game

*2025-07-05, version 2.6*

Ấn để nhảy lên mà đ ấn được. Làm game kiểu j vậy ba

### 5/5 — Забавляюсь с багами-фичами

*2025-05-19, version 2.5*

В игре заметил 3 бага, которые, тем не менее, выступают фичами:
    1 баг, самый незначительный. Если запрыгнуть на канат с (примерно) кратчайшего расстояния, возможно чуть быстрее взобраться, тыкнув по экрану.
    2. Высота прыжка персонажа чуть выше, чем длина между двумя платформами. Разработчики воспользовались принципом «если игрок задел платформу, то даже не находившись на ней, он может прыгнуть». Этим можно воспользоваться и в некоторых моментах перескакивать целые уровни. Это также делает некоторые уровни довольно безопаснее (уровень летающими стреляющими головами, например)
    3, любимый мне баг. Его конечно тяжелее всего реализовать, но, натренировавшись, им можно пользоваться всё время. Если прыгнуть к кубу с определённого расстояния, то можно сделать «дабл-прыжок», прыгнув дважды вперёд или дважды назад (направление можно выбирать). 
Дополнение: Прыгнув вперёд, также можно развернуть своего персонажа (через секунды-две) в момент прыжка, даже если он не будет соприкасаться со стеной или кубом. Вообще, этот баг в целом достаточно тяжело описать словами, лучше показать его юз видеороликом. Натренировав этот багоюз, можно увидеть связанные с ним забавные мелочи.

Не уверен, всё ли в отзыве понятно написано. Как автору мне через текст это просто понять, но как вам, не могу знать.

Игра мне понравилась. Жутко понравилась.
Я даже скажу, что «Аномалия игры» (которая описывается на экране, рассказывающем об аномальных последствиях игры) существует.
