Jump King, the challenging 2D platformer originally released on PC in 2019, has begun its Android soft launch! Developed by Nexile and published on Android by UKIYO, this free-to-play title is currently available in select regions.
Soft Launch Locations:
Jump King's soft launch encompasses the UK, Canada, the Philippines, and Denmark. A wider global release is planned soon.
Gameplay:
Jump King's core mechanic revolves around precise jumps. The objective? Reach a "Smoking Hot Babe" at the summit. Expect no mid-air adjustments or safety nets; skillful timing is paramount. A charged jump is executed by holding, then releasing to initiate the leap.
Prepare for punishing falls. Each misstep sends you plummeting, potentially erasing significant progress instantly. You'll contend with gravity and your own frustration, starting with 20 hearts that deplete with each fall. Replenishment options include a daily fortune wheel offering 5-100 hearts or in-app purchases.
Expansions Included:
Beyond the main game, the Android version includes two free expansions:
- New Babe+: A familiar yet distinct challenge, testing your mastery of the jump mechanic.
- Ghost of the Babe: A desolate journey beyond the Philosopher's Forest, prompting existential questions about your climb.
The cycle of leaping, falling, cursing, and retrying is the essence of Jump King. If you reside in a soft-launch region, download it now from the Google Play Store!
