Your Context
This is a mere mod of the iconic game Jumpy Platformer developed by the people from the MakeCode Team. In that game, your moveset as the player is somewhat limited in quantity: move left, move right, duck down, and jump. But that jump mechanic is special, see, you can simply jump once, but if you press the console’s A button while you’re in mid-air, you can DOUBLE JUMP. That allows for a lot of creative designs in the platformer.
So, for the last couple of months, I have been working on a special platformer game, building on a previous mod of Jumpy Platformer that I had created (it’s the #1 on my Top Links section in my profile). An experiment to see the quantity of sobs and tears I could bring to the player with their given moveset. The most AGONIZING and tight gameplay that I could create with the double jump mechanics. And here we are…
This is The 15 Paths. You, the player, must traverse through 15 stages of hard platforming, with each level being harder than the last. Each stage utilizes a special color scheme; the first level will have you platforming on red blocks, and the final level will have you platforming on black blocks. Also, if you haven’t noticed already, the number 15 is a direct reference to the amount of color that MakeCode Arcade gives you to use.
Also, have I not told you that this level has no checkpoints and you only have 1 heart in your inventory? The margin for error has gotten even lower than it already was. Does this not ease the nerves? Even if you died at the very end of Stage 15, you go all the way back to level 1. You’ll have to beat all 15 stages in 1 attempt to claim glory. Do not worry, I specifically tested each timing in the game, and all of them are indeed possible to perform, albeit some are highly inconsistent.
I am strongly confident that this level is truly the hardest Jumpy Platformer Mod in history, and perhaps is worthy of the title of MakeCode’s Hardest Platformer.
Good Luck, you’re going to need lots of it.
