Leap of Faith is a Sisyphean platformer game prototype where the objective is to climb to the top of the screen and reach the goal. The twist is that every time you jump all the platforms are randomized. This way you never know where you’re going to land until after you jump. Hence the title Leap of Faith.

Leap of Faith was originally created for DonationCoder’s NANY 2010, an annual programming challenge (which stands for New Apps for the New Year). You can see Leap of Faith’s original NANY page on DonationCoder here.

Use the arrow keys to move left and right. Use Space Bar to make a Leap of Faith and try to reach the goal. You’ll know it when you see it.
