  • Rhythm-  Play a classic rhythm game, that gets progressively harder, while continuing to jump!
  • Juggle- Can you keep three balls in the air without falling on the rope?
  • Tilt- Physically tilt the Playdate to the side to keep a ball on the platform, all while timing your jumps!
  • ......and more!

Hee hee hee. This is so cute/charming/whimsical.  

Suggestion: The more difficult the game mode, the more tokens awarded per jumped rope.

Crash: When unlocking Bard, the game crashes on my Playdate (OS 2.7.2).

I just found the cause of the crash, thanks for pointing it out. A patch will be live shortly!

And that's a good idea with the increased tokens for the harder games. Gives more incentive to play the tougher challenges
