Fully agree on trying again - this was my 4th and it gets easier every time.
I think you might increase the "gravity force" to bring the guy down faster. I found I was constantly over jumping the platforms. Also, I'm not sure if you intended to have a "double jump" but it worked out that it did.
This definitely fit the theme. The mechanic has potential.
@Jim Haslett Ill have a look at the gravity, and yes the double jump was intended to protect users from the hidden platforms :P I will play around a bit more with the mechanic :)
