"Blockcharted: Jump or Be Crushed in This Fast-Paced Platformer"

Author : Hunter May 24,2025

What do you get when you mix the fast-paced puzzle gameplay of Tetris with the hardcore platforming of Super Meat Boy? Enter **Blockcharted**, where the fear of being trapped under falling blocks becomes a thrilling reality.

Created by solo developer Jimmy Nollet, **Blockcharted** is a free game that challenges you to leap from block to block as they cascade down, dodging the onslaught of additional falling shapes that threaten to crush you. As you navigate through the levels, the pace quickens, pushing your reflexes to the limit until a misstep sends you tumbling.

But don't worry, you're not left to rely solely on your reaction times. **Blockcharted** offers a variety of power-ups to aid your survival. Whether it's slowing time to dodge more effectively, freezing blocks to create a safe path, or teleporting out of harm's way, these power-ups are your lifeline in this high-stakes game.

**Blockcharted** offers two distinct modes to test your skills. In Classic mode, you'll ascend to new heights, while Inferno mode ramps up the tension with a rising pool of lava that forces you to keep moving upward. Even if you're not typically a fan of platformers, the puzzle elements in **Blockcharted** are sure to captivate you.

The game is accompanied by upbeat chiptune music and charming, stylized graphics, creating a delightful contrast to the intense gameplay. Best of all, **Blockcharted** is free to play, so you have nothing to lose—except perhaps your patience as you master the art of dodging and jumping.
