Dolphin Simulator

Dolphin Simulator is a fast-paced platform-arcade game where you play as a dolphin and you score points by jumping and performing acrobatics.

Created for the GMTK Game Jam 2025.

You only need a mouse and one button: hold down left click to swim in the direction you're pointing with the mouse.

You score points by swimming in loops and by jumping out of the water and performing acrobatics.

You can do front-flips and back-flips by moving your mouse in loops around the dolphin when in mid-air.

Jumping through hoops multiplies your score.

Make sure not to mess up your jump with a bad dive!

peak game

So, I did a stream where I played about 25 different games and I have to say this was my favorite.

This is the sort of game I was trying to make with another game jam (not this one) as a runner style game and I found this to be a ton of fun.

It was really good and I gave you 5 stars in a few categories and I hope this game ranks highly because it deserves it.

this is dope!
