Save The Forest

Play:

Full screen Touch: Tap anywhere to jump. Confirmed working via direct testing. · Keyboard: Space to jump.

About:

Hop from tree stump to tree stump, one tap at a time, staying ahead of a wall of rising fire. Wind and speed values shown live in the HUD actually affect the jump arc, adding real depth to a familiar one-button formula. A js13k 2016 Mobile-category entry.

Phone check: Played on a simulated phone (390x844, touch) and desktop via playtest.js. Zero page errors. The standard tap/key test harness didn't trigger a jump (a testing-tool gap: this 2016-era code checks the legacy keyCode property, which Playwright's synthetic events don't always populate) -- confirmed clean by dispatching a genuine spec-correct TouchEvent directly, which triggered the jump exactly as intended. Touch is a first-class, fully-covered input.

A Astroblast by Frank Force

Beacon Siege Escort a fragile beacon through eight dark arenas. Shove the swarm back with knockback pulses, flick a lance to skewer the dangerous ones, and drop traps to hold the line until the light reaches the gate.

Beetle Parade A line of beetles is marching down a garden trail toward the burrow. Flick beetles into the line from your snail; three of a colour scuttle off, and the gaps snap shut into chain reactions.

Bin Shot Flick a scrunched-up memo across the room and into the bin, while a desk fan tries its best to blow it somewhere else. Six places to throw from, from an open-plan office to a windy rooftop at dusk.
