Happy Jump 🙂

Game made in less than 500 characters for TweetTweetJam 8 🍒

Welcome to Happy Jump, the addictive game where you must avoid the knives and collect the cherries. The objective of the game is to keep jumping and avoiding the knives as long as possible.

To move left, simply press the "a" key using lowercase. To move right, press any other key. Collect as many cherries as you can to increase your score. But watch out for the knives that will try to stop you in your tracks.

The game is infinite, so you can keep playing until you achieve your high score. Do you have what it takes to be the ultimate Happy Jumper?

This description was generated by an AI because I was out of creativity. 😅

* To be able to move it is necessary that the game canvas has focus.

The original code was 618 characters long, but I used a trick that combines two characters into one, turning them into Chinese/Japanese characters. In this way, I reduced the size by half (309 characters), however I had to include a function to transform it back to JS, totaling 494 characters (or 497 depending on the program used to calculate it). I hope this is not considered cheating. 😁

Original code:

<script>onload=()=>{X='px';T='innerText';D=document;B=D.body;M=Math;A=M.abs;N=M.random;S=e=>e.style;C=(e,t)=>{B.appendChild(d=D.createElement('h1'));d[T]=e;return t={d:d,s:S(d),x:0,y:0,z:0,t:0,u:(k)=>{with(t){s.position='fixed';s.top=(y+=t)+X;s.left=(x+=z)+X;x>500&&(x=-20,k&&(y=k()*110,z=k()*9+1));x<-20&&(x=500)}},l:()=>(t.t+=.5)&&t.y>150&&(t.t=-12)&&(t.y=150),v:(o)=>A(t.x-o.x)+A(t.y-o.y)<40,a:()=>t.d[T]++,p:()=>t.d[T]=0}};W=C('🍒');P=C('🙂');F=C('🔪');R=C(0);F.z=3;B.onkeydown=(e)=>P.z=e.key=='a'?-9:9;B.onkeyup=()=>P.z=0;setInterval('with(P){l();u();v(W)&&R.a()&&(W.x=N()*450)&&(W.y=N()*110);v(F)&&R.p()}W.u();F.u(N)',16)}</script>
