AY in Firebar Jump! is an automated team-survival minigame where six characters battle to outlast a rotating hazard above a lava-filled arena. Created by @DanyB16 and based on an original concept by @mattheng, this "Add Yourself" (AY) experience can be played in your browser on Fortcade. The game pits two teams against each other in a high-stakes test of timing and health management, featuring community-created characters that bring a unique crossover energy to every match.

How to Play AY in Firebar Jump!
The objective is simple: be the last team standing. The six contestants are divided into a Red Team and a Blue Team (usually three members each). As a rotating firebar sweeps across the platform, characters must jump to avoid taking damage. If a character loses all their HP, they are eliminated and fall into the lava below.
Because the jumping is handled by the game's simulation logic, your primary role is that of a spectator or a creator. You can start the match and watch the health bars dwindle to see which side emerges victorious.
| Action | Control | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Start Match | Click Green Flag | Begins the intro and starts the survival contest |
| Stop Match | Click Red Button | Ends the current simulation run |
| Remix/Add Character | Scratch Editor | Follow internal instructions to add your own OC |
Six Contestants and Team Survival
The arena is split into two raised platforms separated by a central gap. In the standard version of this remix, the roster includes a variety of creative personalities such as Leafy, Keyboardy, and Camera Feffy. Each character comes equipped with their own jumping animations, hit reactions, and voice clips, which prevents the simulation from feeling repetitive.
The presence of the Pen Text Engine++ by @-Rex- ensures that match events and health statuses are clearly displayed. This technical polish, combined with the game-show style presentation—complete with countdowns and victory sequences—elevates the experience from a simple obstacle test to a dramatic community event.
The "Add Yourself" Remix Culture
One of the most important aspects of AY in Firebar Jump! is its role as a template for other creators. The project includes specific rules to maintain quality and fairness across branches:
- Character Scaling: Contributors are asked not to make characters tiny or giant, ensuring they remain visible.
- Alignment: Characters must be aligned to the ground to keep the physics looking consistent.
- Content Guidelines: To respect the preferences of contributors like @ZYellow, FNF-related content is generally kept out of the main branch unless specific exceptions are met.
- Remixing: New players are encouraged to duplicate the "Player0" sprite to add their own original characters (OCs) to the lineup.
