Whoa, this new Ian MacLarty developed white-knuckle dodge’em-up is straight outta Melbourne!
You may be asking, what exactly is this game? Well, let us tell you, at its essence, JUMPGRID is a bullet hell hyper-Pac-Man. The player must survive an ever-moving cosmic obstacle course by deftly teleporting between nodes on the “jump-grid”. Clear all nodes to open a wormhole to the next level. Success requires only a few seconds of precision finger ballet, but touch any of the pulsing hazards and the level instantly resets, ready for you to try again, and again, and again… This is a game about honing your muscle memory until you learn to dance with your fingers!
- Skin-of-your-teeth gameplay with easy to learn controls
- Over 100 uniquely challenging levels
- An original pulse-pounding electronica soundtrack
- Flaunt your skill and find fame on the speedrun leaderboards
- Adjustable game speed
Jumpgrid will be hitting PC/Steam, Mac and Itch.io on February 12 for US$4.99 / £3.99 / €3.99 / A$7.50.
