Introduction
Vote for Gumball is an engaging online puzzle-platformer game set in the whimsical universe of The Amazing World of Gumball, a popular Cartoon Network animated series. In this game, Gumball Watterson, a quirky blue cat, is running for class president at Elmore High School.

How to play

- Switch Characters: Press the Z key to toggle between Gumball and Darwin, as each has unique abilities needed to solve puzzles.
- Action/Interact: Press the spacebar to perform character-specific actions:
- As Gumball: Pick up and move boxes, break pencil barriers, or activate lever switches.
- As Darwin: Take photos to stun enemies, use warps, or activate lever switches.
Gameplay
- Character abilities:
- Gumball: Can jump higher, carry and place boxes to create platforms or activate switches, and break pencil barriers. Use boxes strategically to help Darwin reach higher areas or to trigger switches.
- Darwin: Uses his camera to take flash photos, which can stun enemies temporarily (useful for keeping switches active or clearing paths) or capture campaign photos. He can also use warps to access new areas
- Level progression:
- Each stage consists of four levels, represented by a character Gumball must interact with to gain votes.
- To complete a level, guide Gumball to the Anton clones at the voting booth. In the first level of each stage, Gumball must equip a suit to access the booth.
- The final level of each stage requires Darwin to take a photo of Gumball with the stage’s character to complete it.
- Levels may have one or two voting booths, and players must navigate through platforming challenges, puzzles, and enemies to reach them.
- Puzzles and obstacles:
- Switches: Activate floor switches by having Gumball or Darwin step on them, placing a box on them, or stunning an enemy to stand on them. Lever switches are activated with the spacebar.
- Enemies: Avoid enemies, as contact with them ends the game. Use Darwin’s camera flash to stun enemies temporarily, especially to clear paths or keep switches active.
- Platforming Challenges: Overcome gaps, high platforms, and tricky jumps. Gumball’s higher jump and box-placing ability are essential for areas Darwin can’t reach alone.
- Collectibles: Find hidden stickers throughout levels for bonus points, though they are not required to complete the game
- Campaign tasks
- Collect campaign materials (e.g., suits, boxes) to impress classmates and gain votes.
- Interact with students by reaching them or taking photos to boost Gumball’s campaign.
- Avoid or neutralize opponents to maintain Gumball’s lead in the election race
