Nice concept, reminds me of vim adventures. One thing that would be nice is if you can disable moving the arrow keys while typing. It's a bit annoying to have your character jump and run off to his doom when you start editing the text.

You can complete this with just one div. Just jump up and when it get to the desired jump height simply click create. Before I click create the new div has a new bottom offset which is a raised platform from the previous platform position that the player lands on.

Friends and I created this for the hack.summit() hackathon this past weekend. It's a game to teach beginners HTML. You've got to platform jump to the warp portal using divs that YOU create!

Any feedback?

Unfortunately, jumping doesn't work for me and I can't continue! Neat concept, though.

Dang, sorry! What browser are you using?

Did you try the arrow keys?

Yep :).

I think it was actually my laptop at the time.. it's having issues loading random things these days (holy crap do I need to just wipe the dang thing), so it might have been that!

Second level I'm assuming the regular way to pass it is to create stairs. However I just used css transform to rotate the div to make a climbing plane but the guy just jumps through it. Neat concept though.

So many people did that. I totally forgot about transforms. It's in the works to fix :)

The UI reminds me of some of the first levels in Super Meat Boy.
