Game description
Secret Sprint is a 2D platformer where you race to reveal secret words.

Theme interpretation
The "secrets" theme of this game jam inspired the main mechanic of this game which is revealing secret words.
I wanted to combine this with one of the game jam's wildcard options, so I decided to build the game around revealing the secrets as quickly as possible.

Wildcards used (optional)

Speed Run

Make time the enemy

Fun little game with a nice overall feel. I am not very good at the double wall jumps so some of the levels were quite challenging. Nice work

This is creative. Really nice idea.

The game is really easy to understand and the control feels really nice.

I really enjoyed the guessing mechanic, useful when a secret letter is just out of reach. Had quite a lot of fun!

Well done. Very simple and clean. And yet you managed to get me addicted :-) The jumping is sometimes a bit tricky, but manageable. The visuals bothered me at first, but then I came to like them because they are so different.
