“The game's source code repository will also be available in the coming days…” Welp, that aged poorly. Hello! It's been almost two months since the game was released, and as promised, I've published the game's source code on GitHub, available here ! My original plan was to make it easy for anyone to build it, hence why such a long delay. I encountered many issues related to my sub-optimal C# pr…

Changes: · Updated localizations. · Updated changelog release dates. · Changelog can now be closed by pressing ESC. · Repositioned one of the jump…
Hi! Jump Adventures is finally available here on Steam! Thanks for all your support during the development! As outlined in the previous post, some things will not make it for this release. My current top priority is delivering Linux support for the game, with World 3 coming in one of the future content updates. The game's source code repository will also be available in coming days, licensed un…
Hi! After so much time, I'm happy to announce that Jump Adventures finally releases on April 24th, 2024! Unfortunately, some features won't be making it for the release. Namely, World 3 and Linux support. World 3 still needs some ironing out, and I believe delaying it to a post-launch update is a much better choice than shipping an unenjoyable mess. The additional time was spent polishing and i…
TLDR: Jump Adventures was put on hold with the store release date marked as "Coming Soon". I'm taking a few months break to work on a new game. Hello! Two months have passed since the last devlog, and Q4 is steadily coming to an end. Along with that, the game's release date was marked as "Coming Soon". What's going on? Well, in short: the game is delayed, once again. Only this time, without a v…

Hello, and welcome to the new devlog! Since the last development update, the game saw numerous behind the scenes changes in its code, as well as improvements to the UI and general user experience. Additionally, there's been a ton of work towards balancing World 2, making it more forgiving and less challenging. Current Development Status With the removal of Challenge Mode as outlined in the prev…
Hello! It's been a long while since the last devlog. I spend the time polishing up the visuals for the rest of the worlds, implementing small enhancements, but also took a long break from the project to clear my mind after some built up frustration. Now that I'm back in full swing, I realize that I won't be able to finish the rest of the game by the planned date of August 31st. Therefore, I've…

Hello and welcome to another devlog! It's been a month since the first World 2 preview, and two since the last devlog. During that time, I managed to finalize World 2's gameplay, finished the initial work required for the Challenge Mode, and made some quality of life improvements. Along with that, I begun planning for World 3. This time, I don't have any shiny new screenshots, but instead I hav…

Hello! It's been a while since the last update on the development of Jump Adventures. I've been mostly working on spoilerish and technical stuff that I won't cover deeply in this post. However, I want to shed some light on a brand new upcoming mechanic and change of plans regarding the level editor. Game Modes As previously, let's start with something more fun: Game Modes ! Playtester feedback…
