On my PC, In my browser I couldn't really jump very high, but on mobile it worked nicely. Funny concept, good job!

I was using Opera when I posted. I tried Opera GX and Chrome as well and had the same problems, though I managed to get out of the bottom in GX, but only after messing around for a bit in full-screen. If I had to guess the problem, its a combination of the viewport being too small to get a large enough of a force vector as well as the amount of cash that appears and is reachable from a 2 foot crown.
That's super helpful, thank you! I suspect it has something to do with the calculation for jump strength taking mouse to player distance into account, which could totally interact with what you're suggesting. On most displays the game should be designed in a way that you can always reach (or spawn) money from the bottom and reach that lowest platforms by 3 crowns. But I've seen what I think you experienced where the jump height just never goes above a tiny hop at the start. Anyway, thank you for the information and the feedback, and for playing our game!
