About Jump The Gun

About This Game

“A game I made For a certain kind of person To hurt them.”
-Bennett Foddy

Jump the Gun is a Foddian style, 2-D, shooting, platformer centered around a robot making its way out of an extremely difficult and unforgiving cave. The player uses multiple guns to propel themselves up at angles to perform precise double (maybe triple!) jumps. This game was made for fun by a group of friends and is meant to be an introduction to the Foddian Genre.
-Use a combination of shotgun and rocket launcher shots to perform strategic jumps

-Learn from your mistakes

-Have guidance with that voice in your head

-Learn, Fail, Repeat.

Don’t just jump the gun. Be the gun.

✦ AI summary

Jump The Gun is a challenging skill-based game that players find genuinely fun once they push past the initial learning curve, with speedrunning appeal for those who stick with it. However, the game is notably frustrating, with frequent deaths and seemingly mean-spirited commentary that can test players' patience, leading some to compare it to notoriously difficult games like Cuphead. Players seem divided on whether the satisfaction outweighs the frustration, with some finding it rewarding while others find it exasperating.

Takes a while to get the hang of it but oh boy is it fun once you get going! Very fun game to speedrun and hone your skills on after first completion. Highly reccommend for anyone that likes those kinds of games!

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
