Jumpthrough Platforms are 1 tile large and can connect with each other horizontally as long as they are the same color.

Jumpthrough Platform is placed on the Close Front Layer.

• Green

and added in 1.8.0 are...

• Purple

These colors determine if the Jumpthrough Platform will connect to each other or not. The connection of the Jumpthrough Platforms is only cosmetic and does nothing mechanically.

• A grey brick design
• A wooden design with rope similar to a ship's mast also appearing in grey

Trivia

• Jumpthrough Platform's design might be based off of Mega Man 2's Item-1 as it is a single Top-solid platform being propelled by a fan blade underneath.
  Mega Man 10 and Mega Man 9 took heavy inspiration and design cues from previous entries in the series, Primarily from Mega Man 2, making this highly likely.
• Jumpthrough Platform's extra colors added in version 1.8.0 are undocumented on the changelog. Other Level Objects however like Astro Gate and Keys did have their added colors documented that same update.
