CHECK IF YOU'VE GOT 17 TROPHIES AFTER THE JUMP...THE JUMP DOWN TO HELL, OF COURSE.
The Trash Game Swarm is back...
More videogame junk.
Today is Gump Jump.
Yep, they've placed an Iceflake in the jumping trajectory.
The is actually a reskin of Lump Jump. Instead of a racoon jumping on a forest, you're a Koala jumping in an cold mountain landscape. Both Lump and Gump objectives are reach 1000m, that's the goal of the game. Your only enemy is the iceflake (a bee in Lump Jump) and going offscreen by falling off a platform. Basically it's the trash version of the Mission 2 jumping segment of Metal Slug 2, you know the boss one where you get a bunch of Heavy Machine Guns and a Slugnoid. This is the crappy version of it with slippery controls and badly placed obstacles.
At first it looks like idiotic obstacle placement leading to an unplayable game, but guess what, you have to double jump in order to avoid it. The game doesn't tell you about double jumping and unless you figure that out by yourself, you would never know. Back to the gameplay, you can also pick coins that only serve to increase your score and they're part of the trophy progression of the game. Zero strategy involved, just jump the way up and you're done.
CONGLATURATION ! ! !
YOU REACHED END !
WITHOUT THE VIDEO GAME LET'S TRY ANYTHING ELSE !
It is also a very short game that is not even worth the investment, since there's not even a decent ending. Just reach the top at 1000m and there you go, "END", there's nothing more to do than move around the damn marsupial you're controlling. But the best thing to do here is to close the app, rate it with one Star and uninstall it 'cos it is more than obvious that you're not gonna play this shit again.
Graphically, it is your basic Flash game where everything looks more like a drawing rather than pixel art. The snowy theme of the background feels a little off place for a Koala character. If there was an explanation or a small plot to justify it, then it will be OK, but NO, just this lazy "Is there because we are too damn lazy to explain". The music is a calmed tune that sounds like those copyright free music works that anyone could use on YouTube's videos.
Shizuka Sakai: "MiSsIoN CoMpLeTe". Shut up already.
Gump Jump, Lump Jump and its latest sequel Bump Jump are just poor attempts to a cheap videogame. I mean, these might work on a ticket machine at amusements or on a Chuck-E-Cheese, but not on a PlayStation 4. I don't know what's more embarrassing, playing this game or the fact that the PlayStation store staff was stupid enough to let this thing enter the store.
"EMILIENATED" that's what this pic means.
