Running through buzzsaw blades, jumping over weirdly bouncing platforms. It feels like they want you to fail. So much falling, so many frustrating moments. Keeps you hooked though. Just one more try. Then another. It’s addicting in a way that makes you want to throw the controller.
Only Up Or Lava is a tricky game with wonky physics. The levels are neat but confusing at first. You need sharp reflexes and patience. Some jumps seem impossible but are doable once you understand the awkward controls. It’s a test of persistence more than skill sometimes.
You don’t really upgrade or load out characters here. The game is mostly about timing and positioning. The most important thing is to stay calm and choose your paths wisely. Forget about power-ups, just focus on mastering the movement mechanics and avoiding the traps.
Here’s a secret: watch your previous attempts and note where you keep falling. Sometimes a tiny adjustment in your jump timing can save you minutes of frustration. Also, try to stay in the middle of platforms when possible. It sounds simple but makes a difference. Don’t rush, adjust your approach step by step.
The game is mostly about clearing levels one by one. There isn’t a deep story, just trying to reach the top. It gets repetitive and a bit annoying how similar some sections are. Still, if you keep trying, you’ll eventually finish. The ending is a bit underwhelming, but the journey is what matters most.
