Kripto Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Came across this crazy new retro-style game "JumpMan" this morning. Looks super-cool and it probably not the last we'll see in this awesome genre- http://www.offworld.com/2009/02/gimme-indi...hellos-jum.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jboypacman Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I like how it looks like a 2600 game maybe this could wind up on WiiWare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 That's brilliant! It gets challenging a few into the octagonal levels. Very nice gameplay. The character reminds me of an Intellivision guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warriorisabouttodie Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 wow the game is a lot of fun. nice that there are PC and Mac versions too. What language is it written in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirage Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I played this more. I guess the octagon levels weren't hard. It depends on where you land in one of them... it can be hard or super easy. I'm actually stuck right now on the first level where you can't rotate the playfield. How to get past that minotaur!?! (or whatever it is). Great game! Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the maddestman Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Wow, not bad at all, nicely done. Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I love the low-resolution pixel guy, and the fact the next level "zooms in". very innovative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potatohead Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 This is game art, plain and simple! Love it! Now we should see ports backward!! It's going to be interesting to see how the various older machines do this game. Some of them have enough CPU and GFX to do most of what is seen in this game. Lots of new ideas!

rpgfaker Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Wow that's awesome! I reminds me of the Space Invaders Extreme updated retro goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
