Jumpless

Game Description

In ancient times, a man asked a sly jungle fairy for eternal life. They agreed, but on one condition: the man will always be chased by an immortal, antropomorphic snail who can kill him by one touch. But the snail has one weakness: he lacks the ability to jump.

Key Features

• There is no jump: the main character can only walk and dash.
• Use your surroundings: various things around you can propel you upward.
• Thrilling storyline: a plot inspired by the famous Reddit meme  "You and a super intelligent snail both get 1 million dollars, and you both become immortal, however you die if the snail touches you. It always knows where you are and slowly crawls toward you. What's your plan?" with a fantasy twist.
• 3 different time periods: travel through the ancient jungle, war-striken medieval castle and a deserted post-apocalyptic city in order to achieve your goal.
