• Game Controls
  • Desktop
    • Use the left and right arrow keys to move side to side.
    • Alternately, left click anywhere with your mouse to change direction.
      • If you click on the left side of the screen you will move left.
      • If you click on the right side of the screen you will move right.
      • The longer your click is held the further you will move left or right.

  • Touchscreen devices
    • Tap on the left or right sides of the screen with your fingers to move in those directions.
• Game Play
  • Basic
    • As a living jack-o-lantern, hop as high as you can.
      • You automatically start jumping. Most of your movements involve jumping toward a platform to the left or right of you.
      • Solid red platforms stay in place. You can, if you want to take a break, just stay in one platform until you’re ready to go up again.
      • If you land on a brittle platform, it collapses after the first time you jump from it, so keep moving.
    • Each time you land on something, you go higher and earn points.
    • The platforms disappear once the screen scrolls past them. Be careful not to fall.
  • Question platforms
    • As you ascend you’ll periodically encounter a platform that runs through the length of the screen.
    • At this point, you receive a question on Halloween traditions and lore.
      • Answer correctly, and you zoom upwards at great speed.
        • Along the way, you have the chance to collect candy.
        • A witch voice will yell “Happy Halloween.”
        • You receive a massive points boost in the process.
      • Answer incorrectly, and you simply jump up toward the next set of platforms. You get no candy.
  • Costume switch
    • As you ascend, you can grab various costume pieces lying around the platforms.
    • Each article of clothing will unlock a new getup for your lantern:
      • Hat: witch
      • Cape: vampire
      • Electrodes: Frankenstein’s monster
      • Bandages: mummy
      • Sheet: ghost
      • Tricorn hat: pirate
  • Tips
    • Standing on red platforms gives you more time to plan your ascent.
    • Plan your actions in advance when your next platform is a brittle one. You need to jump ahead fast.
    • Some of the red platforms move on the upper levels. It’ll be a challenge both to get on them and stay on them, particularly if they also have nearby brittle platforms you need to jump on.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for fans of Halloween and jumping platform gamers of all ages.
  • The game has no adult content.
