Jump Gunners Reviews

There's a turkey hunter mode, and that's about all you need to know.

not lots of people play it, but it is tons of fun when playing multiplayer!

This game is pretty cool, especially considering it was made by a single developer. Kudos to you. I was hoping it would have online multiplayer capability, but what's there is very well done and I'm impressed.

Alright so this game is technically pretty good, nothing special in terms of gameplay, but it does get a few of its basic concepts well. The pixel art style is much like the gameplay, good but nothing not done before. If you're looking for a great couch game to play with friends this could be for you. So why the negative review for a simple platform party game, I mean I have sunk many hours into Duck Game which uses similar concepts. My problem is the fact that in the tags of the game it is incredibly misleading, the Dev put both multiplayer and local multiplayer same deal with the co-op. Now my experience with Steam would imply that there is both local and online multiplayer, because what would the need for 2 tags be otherwise? Well I thought wrong, this is a big deal breaker for me as I'm not sure who actually plays local multiplayer any more and I certainly don't, I would suggest to the developer to do one or two things. Peer to Peer multiplayer which wouldn't be that difficult to add or be honest with your consumers and say in the tags what it is from the get go. I'm sure somewhere the Dev stated that there was no online multiplayer, but the first thing I do and most Steam players do is check the tags. Also if you're looking for a solid singleplayer experience you'll be disappointed, the SP modes consist of a horrendous Turkey Hunt, which is just Duck Hunt but you have 3 bullets and if you miss you have to wait for the turkeys to fly low enough to jump on them, a Challenge mode which consists of very poorly designed levels that awards you for not doing one of the actual complex features of the game, which is the gun jumping, you get medals for conserving ammo which defeats the entire purpose of the actual game. So I do feel a bit bamboozled but since I payed 3 bucks for this game it isn't too bad, but the point still stands that its very misleading to put multiplayer and local multiplayer with out having internet multiplayer. at least remove the multiplayer tag until you have online. Edit: The dev has responded to this and updated the steam store, you can look at the comment thread below for confirmation, as such the review has been changed to a positive recommendation.

Just play Broforce or Duckgame. Would do middle thumb if possible. Not a BAD game, just outshined by similar titles.

It's decent as a party battle game, still, I expected a lot more. Controls are very nice though.

If it wasn't for the Steam Summer Sale I probably wouldn't have known about this gem. As a child of the 80s, this appeals to me in every way: from the art, music (omg the music!), and fast-paced action. I haven't had any multiplayer sessions yet, but I'm sure it's rage inducing haha One of the cool aspects is using the guns to propel yourself upward too so you're not stuck on the platform where you spawn. Show the dev some love and pick it up.

Love this game! Very fun local multiplayer: played with some friends online using Parsec and had a blast! The only improvement I'd like to see is the ability to remap controls, or at least have a few pre-configured control options (just because I'd prefer using bumper to fire, rather than trigger). Highly recommend this one to play with friends!

It did not have a lot of rewarding skill involved. Compared to games like towerfall and duckgame this has very little local multiplayer progression. Also it lagged quite a bit.
