Glidewall

A speed-running ninja obstacle course where keeping your momentum is everything — wall-jump, cling and dash to the exit before the clock empties.

How to play

Race through a fixed sequence of timed levels. Build speed across the floor, leap between walls to climb, and drop a limited cling pad to launch yourself off thin air toward spots a normal jump can't reach. Flip the switch to open the door, then sprint to the exit before the timer expires. Touch a hazard and you respawn with a death added to your tally.

• Hug a wall and jump to wall-jump higher and farther.
• Hold the jump button for extra height; tap for a hop.
• Drop a cling pad mid-air, then bounce off it to cross long gaps.
• Hit the switch first — only then does the exit open.

Controls

• Desktop: Left/Right or A/D to run, Space / Up / W to jump (hold for height), E or Shift to drop a cling pad, R to retry.
• Phone & tablet: keyboard recommended — this game is built around precise key timing and has no on-screen touch pad.

Tips & strategy

• Never stop moving; a wall-jump from full speed carries much farther than a standing one.
• Ration your cling pads — they're limited, so spend them only on jumps you truly can't make.
• Collect gold on the fast line rather than detouring; lost time hurts your score more than missed coins.
