🌀 Rift Jumper
No jumping, just teleporting. Click a reachable platform, time it around the hazards.
How to play
- Click or tap a platform within the glowing range circle to teleport there.
- Arrow keys teleport to the nearest reachable node in that direction.
- Nodes with a countdown ring flash red when dangerous. Wait for green.
- Teleporting onto a red node sends you back to the start of the level.
A platformer with no jump button at all
Rift Jumper replaces jumping entirely with teleporting: instead of gravity and a jump arc, you click or tap any platform node connected to your current one, shown by a line and a glowing range circle, and blink there instantly with a flash of particles. The whole game becomes a node-graph puzzle rather than a timing-and-reflexes challenge.
Some nodes are hazardous, cycling between safe and dangerous on their own real-time clock, shown as a visible countdown ring so you always know exactly when it's safe to jump. Because every hazard's cycle is fixed and visible, every level is solvable just by waiting for the right moment rather than needing split-second reflexes, though a faster clear time (tracked per level) rewards reading the timing well instead of just waiting it out.
Works with mouse, touch, or arrow keys (which jump to the nearest reachable node in that direction), no download or account needed. For a puzzle-platformer with real jumping and pushable crates instead, try Switch & Shift, or browse the rest of the lineup on the Platformer Games hub.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move in Rift Jumper?
Click or tap any platform node connected to your current one (shown by a line and within the glowing range circle) to teleport there instantly. Arrow keys jump toward the nearest reachable node in that direction.
What are the flashing red nodes?
Hazard nodes cycle between safe and dangerous on a visible countdown ring around them. Teleporting onto one while it's red sends you back to the start of the level, so wait for it to turn green first.
Is Rift Jumper a reflex game or a puzzle?
It's a puzzle. Every hazard cycles on its own timer, so a level is always solvable just by waiting for the right moment, no split-second reflex required.
Is Rift Jumper free with no account needed?
Yes. It's free with no download and no account, and your unlocked rifts and fastest clear times save only in your own browser.
