So it's been a while since I've played, but the jumping mechanism in this game seems to have changed or is glitched out for me at least.
Let me explain this:
So basically, back in the day I was able to double tap W and hold space for like super fast movement. That doesn't seem to work properly because holding down space bar won't work it will only jump once and then just sprint.
A similar thing happens in creative mode when I'm flying. I double tap Space to fly, which works fine, but I can't hold it down to fly up. I have to keep pressing it and it will go up in little increments at a time.
I've restarted My PC, minecraft and stuff like that but doesn't seem to be working.
What does work though: I can change the jump to another key on my keyboard and it will work, but I'd rather find a solution to the problem.
Could there be something wrong with your keyboard?
If you have or can borrow another then test with it.
It seems very odd that it works with other keys but not <Space>, I don't suppose you have any keyboard driver or anything with settings for doing odd things? (Surely <Shift Lock> wouldn't have such an effect?)
I'm rocking the latest version of MC and my keyboard seems fine because otherwise mymessageswouldbelikethis so it is pretty strange that the space bar works yet isn't working for minecraft.

Just testing.
Just tested, holding <Space> makes me keep jumping or if I double clicked it first in Creative it takes me up-up-and-away. I'm running 1.8.9
If you're testing the 1.9 snapshots they may be glitched or changed, otherwise I think it must be your keyboard/computer.

What kind of PC do you have?
Laptops often have odd keyboard functions for getting by with fewer keys, though I don't know that they usually affect the Sacebar.
Just testing.
