Closing the game and reopening it is the only way i have found to make it go away. ### 4/5 — Glitch *2022-08-08, version 1.8* Somewhere in the green area I think it was the Bossfight there was a small problem whenever I try to jump on his head there would be an invisible barrier that would take health I so it was saying that it was standing up but and he was actually sitting down I other than that it is a good game **Developer response:** Hi! thanks for playing and thanks for reporting this, will check with the team! ### 4/5 — Glitched dyingy *2022-06-01, version 1.8* So you know how when I want to move on I respond next to me was a saw so I went towards the saw just when I respond and then I died but then the normal dying thing didn’t happen I just didn’t die so it was like an infinite death I had to go to the home screen please fix that🥺 **Developer response:** Hi! We are glad you are enjoying the game. Thanks for reporting this, will check with the team! We are checking all the comments to improve the game. ### 4/5 — Desertum *2021-12-23, version 1.7* I really do love this game, but I feel the game has a challenge balancing what is easy vs hard game play wise. Up until desertum, it was smooth sailing, albeit some hard but fair challenges. But then it amps up to 11. I’ve looked online, and on serval forums, but no one can find the key to desertum. I’ve bought desertum’s map and have scoured everything with no luck. Not to mention how Calabria is honestly some of the hardest gameplay I think I’ve ever done. I really want to finish it, but with no key in sight, as well as that sleeping beast that I honestly have no idea what to do, I feel kinda frustrated. **Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for your comments and thanks for playing Jumper Jon! If you need help please feel free to contact us sending an email to steve@ogrepixel.com we would be happy to assist! 😀 ### 3/5 — Initially Chose Wrong Difficulty, No Going Back *2021-05-08, version 1.5* After starting the game I was given a choice to do no time limit (easy mode) or only 30 seconds. I initially chose 30 seconds and hated it. I started a new game save and chose timeless and then was still given the 30 second time limit. There is seemingly no way to change the game mode after a choice is made either. Not a fan. 3 stars only for the graphics and concept. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for playing Jumper Jon! That seems to be a bug, the game is supposed to allow you to game mode on a new game. Please send more details to steve@ogrepixel.com 🙂 We are constantly updating the game and all the comments help us to improve it! 🙂 ### 4/5 — Need a tutorial video! *2021-03-30, version 1.4.3* I love the game but I can’t figure out how to do certain things like break the bricks. It’s super frustrating. So a tutorial of the game would be fantastic. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for taking the time to play our game, here is a hint... *SPOILER ALERT! You can break the bricks with bombs! Get the bag of bombs item and you will be able to collect them :) ### 2/5 — It’s okay. *2021-03-01, version 1.4.3* I really enjoyed the game but it isn’t very helpful. I’ve been stuck and cant seem to find a way out. I’ve gone through the maps multiple times and cant seem to find a key for a door and I cant figure out how to wake up the demon thing. It’d be nice if there was a helping option or something. I wish there were videos but not a lot of people who post videos play it to where I am, and I don’t know anyone to ask for help. Really wished I could continue but I see no way. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for your comments, you are right, it would be great to have an option to help. We will consider it. If you are stuck on a certain place or need help with something please send us an email to steve@ogrepixel.com 🙂 We will be happy to help! ### 3/5 — [Fixed] Major Glitch 2 *2020-08-31, version 1.4.1* Edit 2: Latest update fixed the glitch! Edit: After sending the developer an email with a screen recording of the bug, they said they will fix it in an upcoming update. There was a previous review titled “Major Glitch” mentioning a bug where you can’t proceed in the area after getting the backdash since the only opening that you should be able to go through, there seems to be something blocking your passage that’s out of view. This was supposedly fixed in a previous update but I am still experiencing it now. **Developer response:** Edit: Hi! Thank you again for playing Jumper Jon! Thanks for sending the email, that helped us a lot to fix it in the latest update. We are glad you are happy with the fix. New Jumper Jon content coming very soon! =) ### 4/5 — Eh *2020-08-27, version 1.4* It’s a fun game but I can’t seem to find items I need. Every pot, light and enemy gives me a coin or heart. It looks like there should be dynamite or other supplies but no clue where. ### 4/5 — Newest update *2020-08-14, version 1.4* A huge fan of the game sad to see the main story line is ending. I have fun playing it, chose no time limit. Gonna restart some and try the 30 second challenge. Ran into bugs in chapter 4 and chapter 5 has a major bug 😱😱😱Chapter 4 I couldn’t fight the pegasus boss even after the Chapter 5 update it just allowed me to move into chapter 5, also got the glitched key from up in the first area added for the glitched door, (didn’t experience the glitched door though). So I couldn’t pick up the key in area 5 so it’s also just sitting there Chapter 5..I got the extra heart capsule thing so now I have 8 hearts in total but it’s stuck at full health even upon dying, restarting the app, going through new areas..so beating this final boss is almost impossible..I’ll get it eventually but I can’t see how many hearts I have to know when I need to drink the health potion ☠️ Also have like 3 rooms on the map that show from buying the area maps that I can’t seem to access/make show on the map.. Support email to send videos or pictures to? **Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for playing Jumper Jon, we are so happy you like it and made it to the final boss! Yeah it is challenging but it is 100% beatable :D. We are constantly updating Jumper Jon, we are considering all your comments and will continue improving it, thanks for the info. Please feel free to send more info to ogrepixel@gmail.com :D ### 4/5 — Great game but stopped due to glitch *2020-08-04, version 1.3.2* I saw a glitch reported in the reviews and I’m also experiencing it. Where a door is missing that allows me to get back to the beginning making me stuck essentially after about 20 min of play. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for playing Jumper Jon! That glitch was fixed on v1.3.1 (SPOILER: there should be a new key on the first level to continue advancing), could you please send more info to ogrepixel@gmail.com? We will be happy to help :) ### 3/5 — Stuck *2020-07-28, version 1.3.2* I love this game. I’ve deleted and re-downloaded this game multiple times and I can’t get past to the next level. It’s just a wall that I’m running against and I can’t move to the next chapter. Any suggestions? **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for playing Jumper Jon! What Chapter are you playing right now? Please send more info to ogrepixel@gmail.com and we will be happy to help :) ### 4/5 — Glitch? *2020-07-13, version 1.3.1* I’m having a great time playing this game. My only concern is I can’t put the options back on the screen after taking them off? Maybe I’m missing something but I’m just confused **Developer response:** Hi! We are glad you like Jumper Jon! You mean the screen buttons? There is an option on settings menu on game pause to turn them on, that should work. We just tested it on latest version and it is working. Please try that, if you have trouble with it, please send an email to ogrepixel@gmail.com :) ### 2/5 — It could’ve been great *2020-07-09, version 1.3.1* (I have gotten to the beginning of the library area) I recently played minute, a game where you have 60 seconds for a life. It was fun, and I picked this game up for it’s similar premise. I was disappointed. I have many frustrations with this game. Bosses you have to try 20 times to beat even though you know what to do, being instantly killed just by walking around, it taking forever to get anywhere, rooms you can only unlock if you come back later, unhelpful npcs, a bland story, and having no idea what’s going on, but they all boil down to one in the end. It’s not fun. It was at first, when I was exploring freely and earning new abilities, but it quickly became repetitive and lost its sense of achievement and fun. Defeat the boss it’s taken you 50 tries to beat? It looks sad and then explodes for no apparent reason. Finally find Jane? Three tiny minions you could easily defeat show up and carry her off, for no reason that I can tell. Why do I even have a thirty second life? All I know is that “you’ve made a terrible mistake!” And “that blue flame must be because you don’t belong here.” Neither of which help me. Listen, I like the premise and the game started out fun. Make it less frustrating, hire some testers and story writers, and I’ll try this game again. But until then, there’s not enough to keep me here. I hope we’ll see each other again. Goodbye. (Edit: what’s up with the paintings and the souls? What does the fairy mean, this is a magical place in everybody’s head? Why did it cost one souls at first and then five souls later? Do the paintings do anything? It’s baffling) Edit 2 (response): first of all, I’m sorry about how I phrased my review. I was in a bad mood and looking for someone to take it out on, and I know it hurts to get something so negative on something you’ve worked hard on. Secondly, I do like the difficulty and the element the timer adds to game, I just don’t like the tedious and it being difficult for the wrong reasons. (Like the double jump not working sometimes for no reason.) Thanks for your response, it cleared several things up. I didn’t even realize Jon was dead 😅. I still have some criticisms, but I hope they help you. 1) some form of fast travel would be great, and it would be nice if you could go from area to area more quickly. (ie not only being able to get back into the first area through someplace that takes a while to get through) 2) a clearer story. I don’t know why Jon’s cursed, who Jane is and why I’m trying to find her, or why I’m even fighting these bosses. 3) better controls. Sometimes the double jump doesn’t work or doesn’t work as expected, the backlash isn’t very helpful, and it would just benefit from better maneuverability overall. 4) having to go back to unlock stuff/it taking awhile to get anywhere: sometimes I like going back to unlock stuff. It feels like a reward for checking and looking around earlier areas when you’re stuck. But it usually only works if a) there’s a hint/reason that you should go back b) doesn’t take to long, and c) is a good reward. A is okay (usually) in that you remember that there’s blocks you couldn’t destroy/get past, but it can still be a hassle trying to find them. B is not great. C is interesting because they might be good rewards, but I have no idea what I need souls/paintings for and I never use potions because they’re rare and not too much help. Maybe I typed too much, but I hope this is helpful and makes up for my first review. Have a good day! ### 4/5 — Major Glitch *2020-06-27, version 1.3* The games has been awesome! I got about 20 minutes in and found myself stuck... thought I was missing something. After messing with it for almost half an hour, I got frustrated. I went up in the room where you get the back dash. You can’t go back down and there is supposed to be a door that leads you back to the starting point, but it’s not there on mine and I can’t proceed. I’ve started a new game twice and I can’t get any further due to the glitch. **Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for the rating! Today we found this is a bug on our side, today we fixed it and will submit a new update to fix this. Please accept our apologies and stay tuned for new version 1.3.1 with the fix! ### 4/5 — We love this game *2020-05-13, version 1.2* My kid lives that it is “spooky”. One problem is apparent lack of controller support on MacOS. Our Nimbus Controller works on iOS though. Any chance that can be addressed? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game center button makes it unplayable *2024-05-25* The game center button covers the left arrow for on-screen controls. Its rendered the game unplayable because all i do is open game center, close it, die. And i cant just be careful about it because the entire premise is 30 seconds to go. Feels like a great game for the bits otherwise. ### 1/5 — The new update title as a reference to super smash bro’s Ultimate *2021-07-03, version 1.5* And I hate this game so 1star mainly because of that reference ### 1/5 — So many bugs *2021-06-02, version 1.5* I really like this game, but it’s clear that the studio behind this game has moved onto their next venture and have all but abandoned Jumper Jon. Many, many bugs remain unresolved - it’s unclear whether or not the developers play their own game. After *finally* beating the final boss (which was difficult since with eight hearts, the life meter never decrements if you get hit) and playing through as Jane, I can’t beat the first boss because after hitting the boss, the left-right controls don’t respond. That happened with the final boss too. I’d really like to see some serious investment in this game or just pull it down from the App Store. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for playing Jumper Jon! Thank you for your comments! We are constantly updating the game and improving it, about the final room it is a problem on our side, we sent a fix for this latest version but it seems like players are still having trouble, we are working on it. Please don't think we are not supporting Jumper Jon, we keep working on it! Thanks again ### 1/5 — Stuck *2020-08-10, version 1.3.2* Fix supposedly for 1.3.1 was to fix the door that is missing if you get the back dash move by going down and around. Still can’t go through the door, as it’s missing. ### 1/5 — Liberya *2020-05-26, version 1.2* The game was fun until you reach the Liberya section where you have to jump on top of the green one eyed bats and then use the dash ability... I spend days trying to pass this zone and tried everything. Frustrating, no fun at all. Remember: GAMES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FUN. I’m okay with challenging levels but this is poor game designing. ### 1/5 — Stuck at the beginning *2019-11-03, version 1.0* What?! ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2019-11-03, version 1.0* This game seems appealing but I can’t figure out how to get the first special ability. If I need to google how to use a game on the first level, something is wrong ### 1/5 — Gameplay *2019-11-02, version 1.0* Game is absolute trash, simple button mechanics with no tutorial on how the game works what so ever. And to add onto that, they have a “special ability” option apparently that no players have access to. Even one of the characters says to use the special ability in one of the first courses and doesn’t even tell you how to use your ability. Not worth the time, absolute waste of time.👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 ### 1/5 — Glitch? *2019-11-02, version 1.0* The first ability didn’t work... if I could get past maybe I would change the rating :/ ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-11-01, version 1.0* Can’t even do the first ability ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Game *2024-07-25* Jumper Jon is a really great game! I love all of the details there are, like on the merchant, you can see all of the items on his/her back…one thing I was confused about was the final room that leads to the final boss, I tried everything and I’m just very confused… ### 5/5 — Awesome 🤩! *2022-08-03, version 1.8* A huge fan of this game with a very beautiful 😍 end!! I recommend this!! ### 5/5 — V fun but bug? *2022-03-02, version 1.7* I love this game and it’s a lot of fun, but I’ve beat the evil one twice and when it happens I just see the credits, then it exits my save then it restarts to before I beat him. Otherwise super fun. **Developer response:** Hi! We are glad you are enjoying the game. Thanks for reporting this, will check with the team! We are checking all the comments to improve the game. ### 5/5 — Timer Glitch? *2021-01-22, version 1.4.1* Love the game, everyone should play. If you like platform adventure games this is perfect. Plus it is a good looking mobile game with an unique concept. Honestly, I bought Apples ridiculous “arcade” and this one game makes it worth it. Saying that, mr/mrs developer, my timer isn’t active anymore? I’ve played the game with the 30 second time limit for about a week and when playing today it was just gone. I really don’t want to have to reset the whole game just to get the time restricted element back so please let me know if it’s a glitch when you see this <3 thanks ### 5/5 — Fun Puzzle Platformer! *2020-09-02, version 1.4.1* I’m really enjoying the game. It is not too hard and not too easy - just right. Definitely a must for anyone with Apple Arcade that likes platformers or Metrovania type games. **Developer response:** Thanks for playing Jumper Jon and thanks for your comments. We are glad you like it :D ### 5/5 — Great game, but unfortunate glitch in Cold Cave *2020-08-17, version 1.4* This game is one of my favorites, with an intriguing storyline and lovely art. However, I have noticed a problem with the Cold Cave, especially in the final boss fight. I have collected all eight lives, but I seem to die after being hit three times, even though my lives never visibly decrease. Please fix soon! :) **Developer response:** Hey! Thanks for playing Jumper Jon and thanks for your comments. We are constantly updating and improving it. We found the issue with the hearts and will fix it on the next update v1.4.1 :). Thanks again! ### 5/5 — Great Game! Prepare to be Challenged! *2020-07-23, version 1.3.2* Love this simple but addictive game. The graphics are rich and fun and the gameplay is challenging but not unbeatable. The 30 second timer really makes you work to explore. I’ve read many other reviews saying it’s too difficult but I disagree, I wouldn’t make it any easier. You have unlimited lives, it just takes some repetition to get it dialed in. A couple things that I think would improve the game would be: 1) You should be able to zoom in on the map. The purple line showing connections between rooms can be pretty difficult to see so zooming would be useful. 2) Rooms with feathers (once discovered) should have an icon on the map. It would help you go back and explore areas later on without spending so much time retreading ground you’ve already covered. 3) I’m at 99.2% completion and I’m stuck in the last room. I’ve climbed to the top of the Caeremolium map and tried everything but there’s nothing there. It seems like this is where a final boss would go but instead I just run around trying all my tools and nothing happens. Am I missing something or is this just not complete yet? **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for playing Jumper Jon and thank you for sharing this! We are glad you liked it! We are constantly updating the game and improving it, your suggestions are great, will check them internally. About the final room it is a problem on our side, we are working on it. Thanks again :D ### 5/5 — Can you switch modes during levels? *2020-07-10, version 1.3.1* I am stuck on a level, but I don’t feel like starting a new game. I wish I could switch modes on the level I am on. This way I won’t have to start the whole game over and I don’t have to worry about the timer. If you can switch to easy mode or normal mode during levels please tell me how to do it? If I can’t change modes during gameplay, could you update so it is possible please? I know I am stuck on chapter 1, but please make a chapter 4 with this update. So I can enjoy the game for even longer. **Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for playing! We are glad you like it :). That feature is a feature that has been asked by other players, we are considering it! Upcoming chapter 4 has improvements on game difficulty, please stay tuned and thanks again for playing! ### 5/5 — Scary I think 🤔 *2020-06-25, version 1.3* Who made this? ### 5/5 — My favorite game in Apple Arcade! *2020-03-30, version 1.2* This game is so much fun! It is fun, fast paced, and super easy to pick up. Do yourself a favor and try it out. I can’t wait for chapter 4. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
