Purpose

I'd like to make a game that highlights the joy of playing with your body in the air like an acrobat. My inspiration comes from gymnastics, tricking, diving and circus elements such as teeterboards.

Flips & Twists is a work in progress prototype designed to explore the control of rotations in the air, and to clarify a gameplay vision.

Hope you will enjoy it.

Controls

Move: WASD
Jump: - Space
Power jump: Shift
Flips & Twists: WASD
Tucked position: Left mouse button
Layout position: -Right mouse button
Move camera: Mouse

How it works

1. Jump and do a trick to charge your power jump.
2. Accumulate bounces and tricks to increase the strength of your power jump.
3. Avoid landing on your front or back.
4. Figures count only in the floor square.

A free mode to learn how to master the tricks, and a time-limited mode to score as many points as possible. You can leave your best score in the comments, as well as a review of the prototype ;) It will be very useful for further development.

For the pros

For those who can link more than two flips without falling. 
Some ideas for sequences. Enjoy;)
