How to Play
Tower Climb is a browser platformer. Jump from girder to girder, collect coins and hearts, stomp barrels for STAR POWER, and raise the flag at the top of each tower.
You start with three lives. Touching a barrel or falling off the stage costs a life. Land near platform centers for NICE bonuses. Reach the yellow platform with the waving flag to clear the level — higher towers and faster barrels await.
Jump velocity is 9.6 against gravity of 0.42, which gives a peak of about 110 units and roughly 46 frames of hang time. With horizontal movement at 3.4 per frame, that means a full jump covers about 155 units of ground — so a gap wider than that is impossible and one slightly narrower is always makeable if you commit.

Tips & Tricks
- 1Stomp three barrels in a mid-air chain to unlock STAR POWER
- 2Purple platforms are springs — use them to skip dangerous gaps
- 3Pink hearts restore a life (cap 5)
- 4Watch the left climb bar — the gold tip marks the flag
- 5A full jump covers about 155 units of ground — anything wider than that is impossible, so commit rather than hesitating mid-air
- 6Jump height is fixed at roughly 110 units, and releasing early shortens it, so tap for low girders and hold for high ones
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clear a level?
Stand on the yellow platform with the red flag at the top of the tower.

Yes — use the on-screen move and jump buttons under the canvas.
How many lives do I have?
Three to start, and pink hearts can restore more up to a cap of five.
How far can I jump?
About 155 units horizontally, from a jump velocity of 9.6 against gravity of 0.42.
What costs a life?
Touching a barrel or falling off the stage. Landing near a platform centre is safe and earns a NICE bonus.
