Jump Boy - C64 Arcade Platformer [WIP]

[Chupup Games]

Hello,

 

i am working on this little retro 2d platformer, especially to study and

improve my pixel art abilities. I use the c64 color palette & 8x8 tiles to achieve

a retro look.

 

You can already test/play some levels at itch.io -> http://chupup-games.itch.io/jump-boy

Well, thats pretty cool,

 

a little difficult at first try, but one gets used to it.

 

I give extra points for the real retro feeling.

 

edit: i supported your game with 2.50$, consider it i payed you a beer for it, everybody gogogo.

 

regards

@oddskill: It's a bit difficult, 'cause games these days were more hard to master

But i will balance it more, once it's finished & the levels are short, so no too big problem when the player dies.

I want achieve, that the player gets a bit angry when he dies but still wants play on...kkkkkkkkkk

 

Thank you for the beer!!!..i mean support ^^

 

regards,

UPDATE: I worked more on the graphics, put some new game elements & changed the level design process to Tiled, so now i can make new levels much faster. 

Please try the game out (link in first post) & tell me what you think,
what could be improved, if you like the art style or if it's way too retro etc.
Any feedback is welcome.

Does something like "way too retro" even exist ?

 

I dont think so, i like it very much.

this game has potential, very retro and unique. It's a little difficult at the beginning but makes it more fun this way - you really want to pass the level  Nice one, keep it up.
