About Whaito
It is a short platform game where each level asks for longer and trickier jumps than the one before.
The imps are little red devils. Some of them stand still on a ledge and others walk back and forth, so you have to time your moves around them. Sharp thorns stick out of the ground in places, and strange looking creatures wait to eat you if you get too close.

The whole game is drawn in pixel art with a heavy red tint. Almost everything on screen is some shade of red, with Whaito as the one white figure in the middle of it. Some levels also hide side paths off the main route.
Quick summary
- Your goal in each level is to collect all the red diamonds and reach the flag at the end.
- The exit stays closed until you have picked up every diamond in the level.
- Once the flag is yours, you move on to the next of the eight levels.
- The levels get harder as you go, and the last ones have the toughest jumps.
Key features
- Later levels have gaps so long you cannot clear them without the double jump.
- Red imps come in two kinds, ones that stay put and ones that patrol, which keeps the action moving.
- Spikes on the ground and odd monsters that try to eat you are mixed in with the imps.
- Pixel art graphics in mostly red colors give every level the same hot, fiery look.
- Hidden paths are tucked away in some levels for players who look around.
Tips & tricks
- Sweep each level for diamonds before heading to the flag, because one missed diamond keeps the goal locked.
- Watch a moving imp for a moment before you jump near it so you know where it will be.
- Save your double jump for the long gaps instead of using it on every small hop.
- If a diamond seems out of reach, check for a hidden path nearby.
Frequently asked questions
How many levels does Whaito have?
There are eight levels, and each one ends with a flag you need to reach.
Why won't the goal open at the end of the level?
You still have diamonds left to collect. The exit only opens after you grab every one of them, which makes this more of a small adventure than a straight dash to the finish.
