Jumping Spikes

Read full description

The simplest game you'll never put down. Tap to flip direction. Bounce between two walls. Survive the spikes. That's it. That's the whole game. But every wall you hit, fresh spikes appear on the wall you just left. The longer you survive, the harder it gets. The faster you go. The narrower the gaps. Until one mistake — one millisecond of bad timing — sends you straight into the spikes. • ONE TAP. INFINITE DEPTH. No tutorials. No menus. Tap once, you're in. • 60FPS NATIVE ACTION Built in Swift + SpriteKit for buttery smooth gameplay on every iPhone, from SE to Pro Max. • HAPTIC FEEDBACK Every jump, every score, every spike collision — you feel it. • BEAT YOUR BEST Your high score follows you everywhere. Crush it, share it, lose it to your friends. • OFFLINE READY Subway, plane, dead Wi-Fi — Spike Jumper doesn't care. • NO PAYWALLS, NO PRESSURE Free to play. Just one banner ad at the bottom — tap, ignore, your call. — PERFECT FOR — • Killing 30 seconds in line at the coffee shop. • Killing 30 minutes in bed at 2 AM. • That one friend who claims they have "good reflexes." • Anyone who misses arcade games. — A WARNING — Spike Jumper is built to be the kind of game where you tap "Just one more try" thirty times in a row. Open at your own risk. Now jump.
