The goal in Happy Alien Jump is to guide your cute alien as high as possible, collecting stars and avoiding obstacles to achieve the highest score.
Your alien automatically bounces upwards. Use the arrow keys or WASD to move left and right, steering the alien onto platforms.
Each time you land on a platform, your alien gets another bounce. Different platforms have unique behaviors, some vanishing or moving. Collect stars to boost your score and look for power-ups to aid your ascent.
Avoid falling off the bottom of the screen or hitting enemies like flying saucers and asteroids, as these will end your run.
Prioritize stable platforms - Always aim for solid, non-moving platforms when possible to give yourself more time to react. Watch for power-ups - Springs give you a super jump, and shields grant temporary invulnerability; grab them quickly.
Plan your jumps - Look ahead at the platforms above and plan your horizontal movement to maximize your ascent. Avoid the edges - Don't linger too long near the screen's sides, as it limits your options for the next jump.
Fast reflexes for vanishing platforms - If you see a platform disappear after one jump, be ready to move immediately to the next one.
