Infinite Jump

Infinite Jump, developed and published by No.25, is a minimalist platformer that thrives on simplicity and delivers a concise yet effective gameplay loop centered around timing, reflexes, and repetition. Built with the casual player in mind, it offers an experience that is easy to pick up and play, asking very little in terms of learning curve or mechanical complexity. The premise is straightforward: guide a bouncing arrow through a series of increasingly challenging obstacles, using only jumps and, in later stages, projectile attacks. At first glance, it appears unassuming, but this simplicity is both a strength and a limitation depending on the player’s expectations.

The price reflects the amount of content well in this case. Aside from the main challenge, there's also an infinite mode, where you can jump till the end of the universe or your hands fall off. Overall, I neither love nor hate this product. Low expectations are required to gain any enjoyment from this budget title. Certainly, it could be way worse. The background and menu art is fairly standard at this price point. Budget assets and design that would look…

30 mins of one hand gaming, time well spent.
