Join the Animals and seize the gold in 10m Platform Diving! In this game
you will play as the penguin representing the Penguin Kingdom to
compete in the final of the diving competition. Your opponents include
beaver, frog, seal, otter and kingfisher, and your goal is to beat these
five contestants and grab the trophy by performing the best jumps in a
total of 5 rounds. To ensure fairness, the contestants are only allowed
to perform groups 1 to 4 in the tuck(C) position and group 5 in free(D)
position. The game begins with the penguin walking to the edge of the
platform, and you may choose backward or forward as the jumping
direction by clicking on the corresponding icon. If you have selected a
direction but would like to change your mind, you may click the other
icon to choose the other direction. When you have made the decision,
click the Dive button at the bottom, and the penguin will face the
selected direction and prepare to jump. A vertical power gauge will show
on the right of the penguin, with a red line moving up and down to
indicate the power of the jump. To set the power, simply click the mouse
or press any key on the keyboard when the red line moves to the desired
position. Then another gauge in the shape of a sector will appear on
the right side of the power gauge, with a red arrow moving to and from 0
degree to 90 degrees, indicating the angle of the jump. Click the mouse
or press any key on the keyboard to select the angle, and upon doing so
the penguin will start to jump. The height and distance of the jump are
determined by the jumping direction and angle. If the jumping direction
and angle are set to the extreme, the penguin will hit the platform and
become dizzy, and it will not be able to perform any movements,
resulting in an epic fail. Therefore it is best to be careful with the
settings of the jumping direction and angle. If the jump is successful,
the penguin can perform special tricks in the air before entering the
water. You may press the up or down arrow key on the screen or on the
keyboard to perform a flip, or hit the left or right arrow key for a
twist. Note that once a flipping or twisting direction is chosen, the
other arrow key of the same movement will be grayed and cannot be
pressed. This is because you may not perform the same movement in both
directions during a flight, for example, when you have pressed the down
arrow key to perform a forward flip, the up arrow key will turn to gray
and you may not perform a backward flip. It is also impossible to
perform flip and twist at the same instance, therefore you need to
release the arrow keys for flip or twist before performing another
trick. When the penguin reaches 5m above the water, a blinking spacebar
will show at the upper part of the screen hinting the entry. Press the
spacebar on your keyboard so that the penguin will extend its arms
forward and prepare for the entry. The flip and twist buttons on the
screen will be removed, and another blinking spacebar will appear at the
upper part of the screen hinting the suppression of water splash. Press
the spacebar on your keyboard again so that the splashing effect can be
minimized. The amount of splashes produced is determined by the entry
angle. If the dive itself is impossible for human counterparts, a
message showing Impossible Dive will appear. After the dive is
completed, each of the 5 judges will give a score within the range of
0.0 to 10.0 basing on the flight and the entry. The highest and the
lowest scores are then eliminated, while the remaining three are summed
and multiplied by the Degree of Difficulty (DD) based on actual diving.
The average score of the dive will also be calculated. The penguin will
be delighted if the average score is not lower than 7.0, but when it
receives an average lower than 7.0 it will be disappointed. The current
score and ranking of each contestant will be shown on the leaderboard
after each round. When round 5 finishes, the penguin will stand on the
podium if its final accumulated score makes a medal, and the national
flags will be raised in the victory ceremony. If the penguin is unable
to win a medal, the game is over. Showcase your flawless jumps and
spectacular movements to become the laureate!
Good Luck.
