Jumper 1.3

Controls:
Left Arrow Key - rotate left
Right Arrow Key - rotate right
Up Arrow Key - extend spring
Mouse Click - click on any red variable and enter numbers (no num pad support - ask Virtools about it ;)) to alter the various variables.
Enter - accept variable.

Notes:
This is an exercise I created for my gameplay and game design class to help teach them how tuning mechanics works. It points to some very interesting directions for gameplay that I plan to continue to explore. As it turns out, just tweaking the variables and stuff is fun. Now all it needs is some kind of unifying structure to really make it sing.

Jumper requires the Virtools web player plugin to run. The web player should ask for permission to install if it isn't already on your system (installer is 740k). However, if you need more information on the Virtools web player-- including compatibility and install issues--visit the Virtools Web Player download page.
