Check out Hopz.

A very simple multiplayer browser game about hopping.

I logged in but no-one was at home  

Then someone appeared from nowhere, hoped over me and game over.  OK - time for revenge, but alas they went away. so lonely  

It's hard doing a responsive mutli-player online game - lag is a big issue and of course players.  I am curious about the game play mechanic but I never really got to experience it.  Playing against the computer is a must if I'm to get a feel of the game.  Unless I'm excited (or even know whats going on), I won't invite friends to play.

PS
Forgot to add, I like the character and the way he/she jumps - but then I'm a bit biased towards deforming circles 

PPS
Just logged in again and there were other players - wooo
OK - looks like fun!  I had one issue - your game turn can end immediately if someone is jumping over you as you spawn.  Definitely have a few seconds spectator only mode when joining to give you a chance to get in position.  Same for when you die (get jumped).

I second what Aaron B said, I was the only one, I felt like Will Smith in I'm a legend
I really like the animation of the character

Is the input delay intentional or is it server lag? Otherwise the base gameplay seems fun enough, but I wouldn't play it for more than a couple of minutes at a time with the current roster of features.

I lost twice and I don't know why. Also It is not clear for me what I have to do in game.

You probably already know this but just in case: the lag is a huge problem here. The game is relatively fast-paced and with my ~200ms latency it's nearly unplayable. Having servers in different regions would help a lot with this issue.

The core mechanic seems fun. I doubt it's enough to have just this one mechanic to keep players interested for longer than ~5min though. I also didn't like the experience when I reached the right (or left) edge of the level. Maybe you can loop the level on X-axis to make it seem "infinite"?
