Games Like Doodle Jump: Endless Jumping Games Online
Updated
Games like Doodle Jump are endless vertical jumpers: your character bounces on its own, you steer it left and right to land on the next ledge, and the run ends when you fall. Doodle Jump is a 2009 mobile game by Lima Sky. The games below are original titles by independent studios, with ledges, monsters and power-ups of their own.
How Doodle Jump plays
In Doodle Jump your character jumps by itself, so you only steer. On a phone you tilt the device left and right to move, and you land on ledges to climb higher.
Some ledges move or break, springs and jetpacks launch you upward, and monsters get in the way. If you drop off the bottom of the screen, the run is over, and your score is how high you got.
So the game is steering and patience, with no jump button. Not every game below works that way, so the table shows where each one matches.

| Steer left and right while you bounce | Hopnova, Jump Masters, Cube Endless Jumping |

- Hopnova is a fast vertical climb across floating ledges. Avoid dangers and pick up power-ups that boost you higher and higher. It takes the arrow keys, on-screen buttons, or taps on the left or right side of the screen.
- Jump Masters has 50 levels, and the world changes from a spring meadow through summer and autumn to winter as you climb. Watch for moving ledges, disappearing ledges and red danger ledges. Use the arrow keys or A and D, or tap the left or right side on mobile. There is a global leaderboard.
- StepHigh keeps your character jumping up while the ledges drop at regular intervals. Reach the ledge above before yours falls, and collect gold on the way to open new characters.
- Never Fall is a tap-to-jump climber. Land on ledges to keep climbing, avoid obstacles and falls, and collect coins along the way. Difficulty increases as you rise.

With power-ups, enemies and tilt controls
These change what is on the way up.
- Cube Endless Jumping asks you to jump as high as you can, collect points and eat food for extra points. You can play with the mouse, the arrow keys, a tap, or by tilting your phone.
- Bunny Jumpy has a pink bunny bouncing on stretchy trampolines. Tap at the right time to jump higher and dodge the obstacles, and remember that each trampoline breaks after three jumps.
- Dino Jump Game has you leap from ledge to ledge and avoid villainous frogs. Each jump earns a point and touching a frog ends the game. A shield lets you hit frogs without dying, and a bomb clears every enemy on the screen. Tap or click to jump.
- Jumping Birds is an endless climb above the clouds. Each bird has its own way of moving, and you jump from ledge to ledge, avoid obstacles and use power-ups along the way.
- Space Stairwell has you jump a sphere up an endless series of ledges rising from the bottom of the screen. Every jump uses energy, so you collect items to recharge, and the ledges collapse faster at higher levels. Click or tap the ledge you want to jump to, and slide with A and D or the arrow keys.
Climbs in other settings
- Urban Jump is a climb across rooftops, balconies and crumbling ledges. Collect coins, avoid falling and keep climbing higher. Move with A and D and jump with Space.
- Galactic Leap puts an alien on floating islands in a cosmic landscape. Leap between ledges, avoid hazards such as spinning wheels and move with the left and right arrows.
Tips for endless jumpers
- Look one ledge ahead. Pick the next landing before you leave the current one.
- Steer in small moves. Holding a direction too long is how you overshoot a ledge.
- Learn which ledges can hurt you. Jump Masters has moving, disappearing and red danger ledges, and in Space Stairwell the ledges collapse faster as the levels rise.
- Do not chase every item. A coin or a power-up is worth taking only if the ledge under it is safe.
- Keep power-ups for trouble. A shield or a bomb, as in Dino Jump Game, or a boost, as in Hopnova, helps most when an enemy or a gap blocks the way.
