So, yes, the platform on the right is too high to jump to from the first platform. But do you see the platform on the left? You’re supposed to jump to that one. Maybe there is a lighting issue preventing you from seeing that platform? Also keep in mind that just like in most platformers, you jump higher the longer you hold space

I believe CodeRedYT has the same problem as I did - it was super-difficult for me to jump from the first platform (from any in fact) because of lag. The jump button doesn't work on time so I started to click it simultanously multiple times and managed to get to the top. Still, it was frustrating.
I loved the concept as well as the implementation though - game looks really sleek and it's fun to play.
thanks you for confirming that the issue is with lag. I only noticed the lag in the webgl version as I was about to submit, and I didn’t have time to fix it. Now I’m on vacation and won’t be able to fix the lag until Friday. :(
I’m glad you liked the concept though! I really hope I’ll be able to fix the lag so more people can really experience the game properly
there is a platform above that first left platform, then you jump all the way to the right, then up.
