The goal is to complete all rounds. To finish round mean to reach the exit point. It's possible to use harpoon to pass high barrier and precipice in the round. In this work SWITCH-technology is used for algorithmization and programming logical problems of game control. The program can be using as visual example of an adaptation this technology. According to [1], application illustrates division of states into two types: control states and computing states. When system is in a one of control states it can accept many different computing states. For example, at “Fly” state the “Fly” physics function accepts many states.

Offered approach makes concept of state constructional. Because usually [2,3] states are not divided into mentioned types and state is treated as values of thousands system variables.

Offered approach is similar to [4], wich is used in hybrid dynamic systems development.

Computing algorithms, used in project are substantiated in the documentation. Application is written for Java platform. Detailed source documentation for every class is presented in HTML. HTML has been generated using JavaDoc tool from the sources. Source documentation does not replace this document, it just supplements the document. This is not generally accepted.
