Change Log:
- v1.1:
- Each screen now has 5 distinct difficulty levels, however small
- Modified another screen to make it more unique
- v1.0.2:
- Added "Coyote Time" for Wall Jumping and added slight freeze when you first make contact with the wall
- v1.0.1:
- Modified screen involving Bouncy Jellies
- Fixed wall-jumping bug where player would sometimes get stuck in wall
- Decreased default audio levels. You can still adjust audio levels back to ear-bleedingly loud in the Pause menu if you want.
- v0.1 [Rage Quit Edition]: The original idea for Infinite Descent; the level gets harder per every 5 screens you clear without dying. Scrapped the idea because it's incredibly punishing, but you can play it if you really want to

I started playing this a while ago, but never finished it. I played again today and it's pretty fun! Some day I'm going to try to get through the whole game without dying. What's your best streak?
if I start from the beginning and play really carefully, I’ve managed a streak of around 19 as best as I can recall.
Nice, my best so far is 23 I think.
Man, I can’t hold the top score in any of my own games :P
I like the music and art work as well as how challenging this game can be. Great job.
Thank you, and thank you for playing it!
No problem
