Redmax

You've got a double jump, a pile of keys to snag, and a level full of traps between you and the door — can you clear Redmax?

Redmax doesn't waste your time with story fluff. It's a tiny platformer built around one mechanic: you jump, then you jump again mid-air. Sounds simple until the level design starts placing gaps, spikes, and keys in ways that punish sloppy timing. The red blocky aesthetic feels like an early Flash game — in the best way. Sound effects are minimal, just enough to let you know you grabbed the key or bit the dust. WASD moves your little red guy. Press jump once for a normal hop, then again while airborne for the double jump. Mobile touch controls work fine, though I found the keyboard snappier for those pixel-perfect ledge grabs. Each level gives you a key somewhere — sometimes behind a tricky vertical climb, sometimes after a series of moving platforms. Grab it, head for the marked exit, and the next level loads. I died three times on a jump that looked easy because I forgot the double jump only resets when you touch ground. What kept me hooked is how tight the hitboxes feel. You'll die a lot, but it rarely seems unfair. The levels are short, so you're back in action instantly. It's the kind of game you open for five minutes and then realize an hour went by. The first few levels teach you the rhythm, then the designers start hiding keys behind spike corridors and narrow platforms that require chaining double jumps with near-perfect landings. Not a lot of frills, but a solid dose of retro platforming.

Master the double jump early: the second jump can save you from a bad first jump, but only if you haven't already wasted it. Don't rush for the key on your first pass — scout the level layout so you know which jumps require the double jump. Use the edges of platforms generously; hitboxes are forgiving, so you can land on the very corner pixel. On mobile, tap twice quickly for double jump, but keep your finger on the movement side to steer mid-air. If a jump feels impossible, check if there's a moving platform or a hidden ledge above — not every key is on the main path.
