Jump Kid

2 in Group Chat

The longer you hold your jump, the farther you go! The twist is you'll be unable to use any other key but your jump button to traverse the levels. You'll be faced against enemies, puzzles, and extremely tough tactical platforming to make your way across the many zones and biomes.

Jump Kid Demo Update 0.1

Oct 2, 2022

Jump Kid Demo version 0.1 is live! Thank to player support I was able to fix and configure some key elements to the gameplay of Jump Kid.

Special thanks to these players for testing the demo and helping add some key features and bug fixes:

RuneShow
Itolman4
The Ghost
Gianbear
Sange
The Doctor

If you'd like to be featured in the next announcement, be sure to download the demo and either leave a post anywhere on social media or steam, or better yet fill out the survey! LINK HERE[forms.gle]

Bug Fixes

Fixed a zone that should have killed the player in 1-1 Jumpy Jungle
Fixed default resolution being set to 800x600 on startup
Fixed the player being able to go out of bounds at the first portal in 1-1 Jumpy Jungle
Fixed the players hat being on a ghost in the portal on 1-1 Jumpy Jungle

Updates

Jump Meter
Due to player suggestions, I have added a Jump Meter to the right hand side of the screen that lets the player know how much power they are using in their jumps. This will help both new and returning players better judge how they will tackle certain jumps. It will also further explain how long you can hold the jump button until it hits its maximum.

Updated Tutorial
Not only is there a new tutorial segment explaining the Jump Meter, also due to player feedback some other key features weren't really explained either. I have now updated the tutorial to explain all main mechanics and key bindings needed to play Jump Kid.

Faster Deaths
3 seconds seemed like a long time to wait before you respawn. Which I totally agree! Players vented their frustration on how long it took to respawn, so I have made a huge change to the respawn speed. Dying has been shortened dramatically, which will allow you to die even faster now.

Updated Trees
It was really frustrating to repeatedly die in the beginning of a checkpoint, so I have made some adjustments to the tree segment in 1-1 Jumpy Jungle.

Update may require you to replay the tutorial.

Thank you to everyone who has play tested Jump Kid thus far, and I look forward to updating the game even more. All feedback is always welcome and I appreciate everyone's input more than anything.

NO Keyboard setting's?

I tried to play this demo with a mouse and keyboard and I tired every button on my computer to walk. Am I missing something?

Demo Is Officially Playable!

Sep 28, 2022

[discord.com]After many months, I am proud to say that the demo for Jump Kid is officially live! This is a demo and is still under heavy development, so all feedback is extremely valuable. If you have played the demo, please be sure to fill in the survey, and share it with your friends!

What is playable in the demo:

The new player Tutorial
The entirety of the first level
Access to your Home
2 HogWick Challenges
2 Hats you can by with in-game gold
Options and settings menu

These are just the many few features that are playable in the demo. The full game will have much more content and hundreds of activities to do. This demo is meant to demonstrate the main focus of Jump Kid, as that is hard but rewarding gameplay centered around the jump mechanic.

What will be coming soon?

Right now I am working on some contests and community events with exclusive prizes that will include money, and physical trophies. First thing I plan on doing when Jump Kid gains some traction on the demo, is a speedrun competition. So be sure to follow social media to know when that happens!

And of course thank you to everyone who has supported me, and pushed me to finally get this demo out. I hope you all have just as much fun playing it as I have had making it. I look forward to finishing the full game!

Demo

LOL i feel like this might be one of those "rage quit" games haha. Any chance there will be a meter to help us determine the jump height? I've already figured that if looking straight head and the camera is centered I wont jump far. But if I have camera view 'their bottom' and hold down the jump button I jump really far. Sometimes the tree branches are so small its hard to get a grasp and stay put haha. Got thru 1st area; did a small portion into another. Havent acquired anything yet from the shops...
