About ONLY UP
Game Description
Only Up! is a platformer where you control a kid trying to climb higher and higher through weird, colorful worlds. You jump from clouds, mushrooms, and all sorts of stuff while avoiding falling off. The goal is basically to keep going up, discovering new sights and some odd creatures along the way. It’s super simple to get into since you just move around and jump, but the levels get trickier as you go. If you mess up, well, you gotta start over and try again.
Story Background
The game is set in a weird, magical world where this kid is just trying to climb upwards through a series of strange landscapes filled with floating platforms and odd creatures. It’s less about a deep story and more about the journey upwards and what you find along the way.
Game Information
Why This Game is Addictive
Honestly, I keep going back because it’s one of those games where you think, just one more jump, maybe I’ll get a little higher this time. The combo of simple controls and the risk of falling makes it nerve-wracking but fun to practice. Plus, the randomness of some jumps means every try feels a bit different.
How to Play
Desktop Controls
You move around with WASD or the arrow keys, and hit SPACE to jump. Pretty straightforward.
Mobile Controls
You just tap the screen to jump and swipe or tilt to move around. It’s easy enough to pick up without overcomplicated buttons.
Pro Tips & Strategies
Don’t rush your jumps; take a second to line up your landing so you don’t fall off.
Use the bouncy mushrooms and clouds to get some extra height when you can, they’re your best friends.
If you fall, don’t get frustrated – it’s part of the game and helps you learn the tricky spots.
Keep an eye on the weird creatures; some are harmless, but others might mess up your jump.
Try to stay near the center of platforms when you land to avoid slipping off the edges.

Game Features
The climbing feels kind of floaty and bouncy, which makes the jumping feel a bit different from other platformers.
There’s a nice mix of odd, surreal environments – from fluffy clouds to giant mushrooms that actually bounce you higher.
The game doesn’t hold your hand; falling is super punishing and can send you way back down, which can be frustrating but also keeps you on edge.
You can play it for free on the web, no installs or anything, which is sweet for quick sessions.
The visuals are quirky and colorful, but also sometimes a bit glitchy or wonky in a way that somehow adds to the charm.
