<b>Movement:</b> Arrow keys or WASD<br/>
<b>Jump:</b> Space<br/>
<b>Goal:</b> Jump as many times as possible without touching a ripple!<br/>

_Who can make the muddy water clear?<br/>
Let it be still, and it will gradually become clear._

## Changelog
There's been two major changes to the mechanics of the game since the previous
version:
* A new ripple is created _only_ if there are no ripples on the field already,
or if the player has jumped over an existing ripple.
* The score is increased only if a ripple is created, and is increased by the
number of bounces off the wall that ripple will have. Put another way, the
score is increased based on how high you jump.
Other small changes include:
* Ripple growth rate has been modified. It's now harder for a player to run into
the ripple they just created.
* Ripple thickness indicates how many bounces are left in the ripple. This was
the case previously, but it's been made more obvious.
* Small performance improvements.
