Jump King’s soundtrack, however, was quite relaxing, even as I was finding myself becoming increasingly frustrated. All too often when playing an overly challenging game, the soundtrack becomes jarring to the extent where the game finds itself muted. Although this may sound boring, it’s actually a decision I personally appreciated. Whether you’re jumping up or falling down, you’re merely accompanied by the distinct sound of nature. What’s also quite fascinating is the decision to have no real music in the game. Much like the gameplay, the aesthetic is also incredibly simplistic, with a pixel art style that’s grown increasingly popular among indies in recent years. This leaves several questions, like: Why is the princess sitting so high up in this tower? Can’t I just take a simpler way around to get to her? And, how in the world did this knight get such strong quads? Additional quips from the gnome during each great fall back down to the beginning add to what is layer upon layer of frustration. There is nothing in terms of a story outside of this simple premise, where your knightly protagonist is just trying to meet up with said lady.
In reality, he calls the princess a “hot babe” and coaxes you forward towards your destiny, but I digress.
Ayakashi: Romance Reborn Dawn Chapter & Twilight Chapter Switch NSPĪs you begin this adventure, you are met by a wise, gnome-like man who tells you it’s time to get started on your vertical adventure, as a sweet, sweet maiden awaits you at the top. That being said, the challenge is there, and looking past how indescribably rage-inducing a game like this can be will lead one towards a perfectly competent platformer that can be enjoyed by anyone who can also keep level-headed during everyday situations of duress. To be clear, this isn’t something like Celeste or Super Meat Boy-where the game is just so difficult that it takes skill, precision, and patience to progress through-no, Jump King’s goal is to piss off the player repeatedly with unfair mechanics. Pain and suffering in jump form.įollowing suit with irritating platformers, such as Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, Jump King offers a new take on the gruelingly-hard version of the genre. To gain any height, you have to hold the button until his power builds, and then let go to see him take off and cross all your fingers and toes that he’s going to land where you’d hoped. The Jump King doesn’t jump normally a quick tap of the jump button will barely move him unless he is travelling sideways when you press it. Well, I say the jumping, but it’s the falling that really causes players to liberally throw out the F-bombs. It doesn’t immediately seem to be the case – after all, how hard can a platforming game with no enemies to contend with really be? But it quickly becomes apparent that the true threat here is in the unforgiving jumping. The game gets off to a fine start by promising a ‘smoking hot babe’ at the top but gives nothing away at to how difficult it will be to actually get there.
