Jump and Fly is one of the arcade games in the Diemakora collection. It loads in seconds and needs nothing installed. Arcade games are designed around the loop, and Jump and Fly has a good one — short attempts, instant restarts and a score that begs to be beaten. From the tags you can already tell that there is a journey with a beginning and an end rather than an endless score chase; timing your jumps is the main mechanic; the structure is classic arcade — quick rounds, rising difficulty and a score to beat.

Tips and tricks
- Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
- Look one step ahead of your character. Reacting to what is under you is too late; reacting to what is coming is exactly on time.
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Aim for consistency before you aim for records. A steady run that avoids mistakes usually scores higher than a flashy one that ends early.
- Because this is a Jumping game, watch the landing spot, not your character.
- Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.
