+grips03 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I did not know there was a demo at Reboot site until today. Thanks for pointing that out. Game does control really well. Only had issue with the big boss at the end, perhaps he only gets hurt when looking away from the hero when you jump on his head. I did defeat him, but took several tries. Is the hero a frog guy? I'm asking for my son. Music and sounds are all on point. Control scheme works great. 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5198317 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control scheme works great. jump 4x on his head until he stuns, during stunt place a bomb near him. It works in both directions. The hero is human, he is wearing a green mask. His unofficial name is "moth". 4 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5198458 Share on other sites More sharing options...

alucardX Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I finally took some time to try this game and I really like it so far. It is very charming and fun. I really like the addition of the little "digital assistant" helpers to teach you abilities at the beginning of the game. They seem like they could have come right out of a MegaMan like universe. They have a lot of personality and they're fun. The game itself is very solid. The character moves nicely and the level designs are well thought out. I have nothing but praise right now. I wanted to find something to nit-pick so that I could give some useful criticism but I'll have to sit with it longer for that. Great work so far! 2 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5201143 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+madman Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Looks good, it's always interesting seeing the progression of the Reboot releases. I probably would've gone nuts if we had YouTube as a kid where I could drool over videos of a future SNES release. 6 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5202826 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlidellMan Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Cyrano, I have to say that this is shaping up to be a Top Ten Jaguar games contender. The song used in the latest build sets the mood quite sublimely. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5240430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 The more I see of this game, the more it reminds me of Droid on the Atari ST, or at least appears to be a spiritual successor to it. Which, coming from me, is one hell of a compliment. 2 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5240524 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droid was a surprisingly polished ST shareware/freeware title back in the day. I spent way too many hours playing it, and have wanted a game with some similarities on the Jag ever since.

+cubanismo Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 This is indeed looking to be a beautiful game. Nice work guys. I haven't played since the demo that was out at PRGE, but it looks to have come quite a ways since then. 2 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5241031 Share on other sites More sharing options...
agradeneu Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 One of the initial influences/starting points for me was Micro Mages for NES, basically I imagined how it would look on the Jaguar as a simple platfomer. The tilesets and the main character fit the bill. At some point we were pondering about including autoscroll levels. 6 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/330925-jumping-at-shadows-wip-platform-game-from-reboot-games/page/7/#findComment-5241098 Share on other sites More sharing options...
