A Hell of a Date

Controls:

A D - Movement

Space / W- Jump 

Hold the jump button to jump higher.

KNOWN BUG: DO NOT HOLD THE JUMP BUTTON DURING THE JUMP BUTTON IN THE LEVEL WITH THE SPRINGS AND THE SINGLE SPIKE (Level 6), THE GAME SOMETIMES BUGS OUT AND YOU DON'T GAIN THE MOMENTUM OF THE DEATH!!!

(At the Bottom is a list of tips and tricks)

You play as Paul, paul managed to get a first date with another person after a long time, but on the bus he somehow managed to fall asleep. As he woke up, he somehow landed in hell! Try to help Paul to escape, so he can get there in time and maybe even collect some roses on the way?

As a human-being different rules apply to his life. Usually there are only ghosts in the underworld, but as Paul is still alive he can get a second life if he dies at humans, but as ghost you have some limitations...

Sounds intresting? Press Play to help him. 

(Note: This game can get pretty hard sometimes, which is why there is a option to disable death. This is NOT the way you are supposed to play. But if you have problems with the difficulty or just want to mess around and do goofy things, you have the option to activate this. But I encourage you to try to beat  the game the intended way)

Tips and Tricks for the game:

as already mentioned, the game is a bit hard, so incase you ever feel stuck, feel free to look into here:

• Sometimes it's better to be alive, sometimes not. You always gotta look for different possible solutions. Same applies for gliding (The ghost's substitute for jumping)
• if you press a Jump after touching the spring pad and time it right, you can make an enormous jump. Timing is important!
• As the death impulse uses AddForce instead of setting the velocity directly, you have to try to have a positive velocity to gain maximum momentum.
• While gliding your gravity is lower, which in return makes you jump higher when interacting with spring and boost pads.  (This is extremly important for levels like the one where the one-way plattform is introduced!!!)
