Rope Jump — free browser game

Your goal is to keep the kid in the middle clearing the rope swung by the two side spinners, racking up consecutive successful jumps. The round starts with the rope at the top and swinging down; you press Space, up arrow or W, or tap the screen, to make the kid jump. The jump is a 360 ms parabola; when the rope passes the bottom, the kid must be at least 28 pixels above the ground. Jump too early and you land before the rope arrives; jump too late and the rope catches your feet — game over. Every 5 successful jumps the cycle gets about 8% shorter, so the timing window keeps shrinking. The thin bar at the top shows current speed: green → yellow → red as it tightens. The best score is saved in the browser; R or the Restart button always opens a new round. Strategy: spot the rope leaving the top and jump about two thirds into its descent — your jump peak aligns with the rope's bottom pass. At top speeds, you must chain jumps without barely touching the ground; feel the rhythm like a heartbeat.
