More about this game
Your goal is to guide a paper boat as far as possible across a rainy pond. A lily pad moves back and forth in front of you. You must time your hop so the boat lands safely on the pad. As your score increases, the lily pads move faster, capping at a maximum speed. You start with three lives, losing one each time you miss the pad and splash into the water. The run ends when you lose your final life.
Tips
- The dotted line connecting your boat to the target row changes color when the pad is within the safe 55-pixel landing zone.
- The lily pad speed increases by 6 units for every point you score, but it stops getting faster once the speed bonus reaches a maximum of 120.
- Do not rush your jump. The lily pad bounces off the edges of the pond and returns, giving you multiple chances to align your hop perfectly.
FAQ
- How do I know when to jump?
- A dotted line extends from your boat. When the moving lily pad crosses this line and is within the safe 55-pixel landing zone, the line turns yellow and a ring appears.
- How many mistakes can I make?
- You start each voyage with three lives. Missing a lily pad and splashing into the water costs one life, and the run ends when your life counter reaches zero.
- Does the game get harder?
- Yes, the moving lily pad travels faster as your score goes up. The speed increases slightly with each point you earn, but it reaches its maximum difficulty cap early on.
