Get On Top
Get On Top — Controls and playing guide
What you do
Two linked stickmen wrestle to force the opponent's head onto the floor. Momentum and balance matter more than moving in one direction continuously.
Controls
Left player: A/D and W. Right player: left/right arrows and up arrow.
A useful first decision
Change push direction when the pair starts rotating. Constant jumping can lift your own head into a worse landing position.
Compare with these games
| Play | What you do | A useful first decision |
|---|---|---|
| Football King | Play short football matches against the computer or another player, with quick-match and tournament options. Super shots add a second timing decision beyond ordinary shooting. | Keep a defender between the ball and your goal before committing to a super shot; a powerful attack also leaves space behind you. |
| Basketball Slam Dunk | Grab the ball and score dunks in a compact pixel basketball match. The first player to score three wins, making possession especially important. | Get control of the ball before rushing the hoop. A short, deliberate throw is easier to position than repeatedly throwing from anywhere. |
| Snake Football | Steer a snake around a football pitch and push the ball toward the opposite goal. A two-minute match rewards the higher score rather than growing the longest snake. | Approach the ball from your own goal's side. Touching it from the wrong angle can hand the opponent an easy shot. |
