I want to play more just to find out what all the possible tweets are.\n\nThe graphics are pretty nice for this. The background space is fantastic and the art for menus and UI like the Twoofer twoofs are really well done. It all fits together really well. The characters, while small, still do give you a sense of what they are about. Bootsie McGee has larger boots so you can remember that his boots pull you down for example.\n\nThe characters all have an interesting and different personality which is great. I think my favourite is probably @BOOTS_BOOTS_BOOTS #Only90sKidsRemember. I do wish their special abilities were shown and explained a bit before you pick them. It's not a big issue as their abilities are fairly simple and you get a feel for them after an attempt or two.\n\nI'm not really sure I understand how the jumping off the platform works. Do you just click once to launch off the platform or is a hold and release sort of thing? Any character other than Boom Boom seems like you use their ability and it's still pretty random where you're going to end up afterwards. I'm probably just not any good at the game. I did get the bounty hunter dude to go flying off the screen and then when he came back, he landed pretty much straight down from where he left so that might be a decent strategy to getting repeatable landings.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Andrei9","author_uid":"1099670","time":"2018-08-23T23:52:12Z","epoch":1535068332,"modified":1535068332,"text":"Cool game :thumbsup: ","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Bredera","author_uid":"1001327","time":"2018-08-30T11:48:03Z","epoch":1535629683,"modified":1535629683,"text":"cool little game, like the graphics and dound design!","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld42\/107507-3c73430c423540f7aff84424ed32c5e3.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/aflatminerstudios.itch.io\/the-longest-jump","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"48479","g_author":"1005076","g_event":"LD42","g_eventkey":"73","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"231344","g_title":"The Longest Jump","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"752","g_commentcount":"17","g_site2_node_id":"107507","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"107507","n_urlkey":"231344","n_parent":"97793","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/42\/the-longest-jump","n_slug":"the-longest-jump","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"5076","n_created":"1533931634","n_modified":"1534212376","n_version":"337865","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":107507,"parent":97793,"superparent":9,"author":5076,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2018-08-13T22:54:04Z","created":"2018-08-10T20:07:14Z","modified":"2018-08-14T02:06:16Z","version":337865,"slug":"the-longest-jump","name":"The Longest Jump","body":"Daredevils often like to jump from high places to prove how brave they are. This group took things a step further, creating platforms in space near some of the local planets to jump off. This group of high-flying adventurers includes a boring billionaire, Lt. Bubblehead, Bootsie McGee, Boom Boom the burly bomb technician, and, of course, a goat in a space helmet. Take control of one of them as they get a running start into orbit to try to land on a target. If you're feeling really brave, you can attempt to hit the same place twice instead of a random target. You will be scored on how well you do. And hope you do well, because the world is watching and they are not afraid to let you know what they think. So strap on your spacesuit and get ready to run (and jump) out of space and onto one of four different planets.\n\nIn this game, you will be choosing one of five characters, each with their own special ability and slightly different skils, to run and jump towards one of four planets, each with their own gravity. You will hopefully stay in orbit and use your special ability to help you land in a specific place. Assuming you land near the target at all, you will be scored based on how close to the center of the target you are. There are three game modes. In the first, you try to hit the target marked on the planet. In the second, you take a practice run and the target will appear at the position you hit, though you have to make sure you stay in space long enough or the initial run will not count.  In the third and final mode, you can still set your target position based on a practice run, but the target will not appear. You just have to remember where you landed.  Enjoy!\n\n\nControls:\n\nMost actions in this game are completed by clicking the left mouse button or pressing the Space bar.
