SkillJumper is what I can probably call the real beginning of my javascript development journey. I had written a lot of javascript beforehand, but this is when I first started using git version control. (even if I still wasn't using GitHub šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø)

I really regret doing this project in jQuery. Though I learned a lot about DOM manipulation, event listeners, and timing events, I feel like I did it with a crutch and I could have learned so much more. But hindsight is 20/20 and this little game not only highlights some of my personal skills but is pretty fun to play too!

This is the gameplay in action! Our protagonist (the handsome bald man) jumps platforms of skills to reach the highest score possible.
