[WIP] Jump man

Community Showcases
1

Hello. I’m making a game called Jump man and thought I share my progress.
This is early alpha version so there’s still allot to do and fix.

What is it ?
Sort of 2.5D platformer , maze solving game :stuck_out_tongue:

Controls are very easy (up,down,left,right) . my goal here is to make challenging game with easy controls.

Why jump man ?
Because he cannot stop jumping haha !

Quick screenshots

Compiled alpha version Jump_man

To do:

  • sound fx
  • changing existing in game gui (pausing, painting etc) to new unity menu system. Its awesome by the way :slight_smile:
  • fix graphical issues with character mesh. Weird black spots appearing from time to time, problem with normals ?
  • basically polish existing stuff to the point where the only thing left to do is new worlds and levels

Hope You like it. If not don’t hesitate to criticize.

I must say when I first saw the title of your post I was thinking “cool a remake of sorts of the old Jumpman game!” (Jumpman - Wikipedia).

When I downloaded and gave it a play, of course, I discovered that was not the case.

BUT that is not a bad thing. It is actually pretty cool and I gotta say the graphics in this are fantastic! Looks like you sketched all of the objects and used colored pencils to color them. Very creative!

Thanks.
Original idea was to make everything from wood (like wooden toys) but it looked brown and plain. So i changed it a bit.
Never heard of the old Jumpman game but it is inspired by old MS-Dos title I played as a child :slight_smile:
But I’m not gonna tell which one. I’m sure someone will guess eventually

I better not get a NECRO WARNING for this… lol

I cannot believe you don’t have more feedback on this! The graphics style is excellent for sure.

Anyway, I just wondered how are you progressing on this project? You didn’t stop, did you? :frowning:

That’s pretty neat. I like the paper cutout backgrounds. And the “room full of trampolines” is a unique take on the platformer genre that I hadn’t seen before.

The project was on halt for long time sadly. Real life takes its toll sometimes. But i’m getting back to it. Currently creating world 2 (from total of 5). I am determined to finish this project.
