A simple jetpack based vertical scroller. Get to the top and you're transported back to the start...but this time, you're racing against a ghost of yourself. Can you do better than the last time?

I've been coding professionally for years but never found the time to mess around with game dev. Finally decided to build something super basic - just a vertical scroller I could zone out to while listening to podcasts.
That didn't happen. What started as a weekend "let me just figure out Godot" project turned into weeks of my kids hovering over my shoulder asking "can you add this?" and "what if it did that?" Every time I thought I was done, they'd have another idea that was pretty good.
Then I found out about itch.io and the GMTK Game Jam 2025 and we rebuilt the whole thing around the loop theme. This is the result. My kids are already planning the sequel. Send help.
