A downloadable game

NAME: Split Jump

PREMISE: This game accommodates two players, each jumping on platforms to survive. if a player loses all their points, or falls out of the world, they lose the game

zOVERVIEW:

The configuration of platforms on one side mirrors the other, along with the opposing themes of heaven and hell.

Starting on a base platform which stays in place a few seconds before disappearing each player can jump to 

normal platforms - plain clouds in heaven / branches with fire in hell

booster platform which bounce the player higher - clouds with rockets on the side in heaven / branches with rockets on the side in hell

Spike platforms which reduce the amount of points the player has - clouds with a purple swoosh in heaven / branches with iron spikes in hell

when a player bounces on a normal platform they gain points, when they bounce on a spike platform they lose points.

The game is played until one player loses at which point the game can be restarted

CONTROLS:

since this is a local game, both players use the same keyboard and so while one player uses the WAD system (without the S), the other uses the arrow system (without DOWN)

UP/W - makes the player jump. this can happen while the player is still in air in a double-jump

RIGHT/D - makes the player go to the right. This can happen any time even when the player is in the air. you can not go past the middle or outside of the screen

LEFT/A - same as RIGHT/D but for leftward motion
