Jump of Icarus

About the Game

The Legend Begins... Poorly

Icarus had one dream: to soar to the sun and prove himself a hero. But before he could even get close, Zeus decided this mortal's ambition needed a reality check—in the form of a divine lightning bolt. The result? Icarus is now bald (save for one defiant strand of hair), plummeting through the sky, and his clothes? Snagged on a tree branch halfway down.

Stripped of his wings, his dignity, and most of his hair, Icarus must now face his greatest challenge yet: hopping his way back up to reclaim his glory.

Hop Your Way to Redemption

This is a precision platformer where every jump matters. You can't walk, you can't run—you can only hop. Master the art of momentum and trajectory as you navigate brutal vertical climbs filled with precarious platforms, unforgiving gaps, and environmental hazards that will send you tumbling back down.

One mistake means starting over. One perfect jump means progress. How far can you climb?

Key Features

Unforgiving Vertical Challenge – Every section tests your patience, precision, and perseverance. The only way is up, but falling is always one hop away.

Unique Movement System – Icarus can only move by hopping. No walking, no double jumps, no safety nets. Master the hop or embrace the drop.

Mythological Humor – Experience a comedic twist on the classic Greek myth. Witness Icarus at his lowest—literally and figuratively.

Satisfying Progression – Each successful climb feels earned. Each setback teaches you something new. The summit awaits those brave (or stubborn) enough to reach it.

Will You Reach the Top?

The gods have humiliated you. Gravity mocks you. But Icarus isn't done yet. One hop at a time, reclaim your destiny—or die trying. Repeatedly.
