Use the [a] to move left, [d] to move right. The [spacebar] will make you jump.

This project showcases the abilities of HTML5 canvas and JavaScript. The JavaScaript renders all items on screen and the player jumps a box from platform to platform in classic fashion. The goal is to get to an exit on the right side of the level. The graphics and design were kept simple to allow more time and effort into the control setup and smoothness of gameplay.

The following section is the core part of making the platforms scroll when the player reaches a certain point on the screen.
