Jump Gunners launches on Xbox One tomorrow!!

I am truly very excited to announce that Jump Gunners launches on Xbox One on the 23rd July, with pre-orders available before the release day on 3rd August. We couldn't have got there without the support of the community and those who have supported me by buying the game, so my thanks goes out to you all. If you have an Xbox and are a Mixer streamer, then please get in touch if you can do some local multiplayer streams, I'd love to hear from you. Kind Regards, James.

1.5.1 Hotfix released, addresses Turkey Hunt bug and more

Hi all, it seems that 1.5 had a bug that prevented Turkey Hunt from playing correctly under certain conditions, and the turkeys would endlessly fly around and the round never continued. This has now been addressed, and please accept my apologies if this bug has impacted your gameplay experience. The fixes included in this hotfix are: 1.5.1 - Hotfix - Fixed turkey hunt mode getting stuck endlessly without the birds flying away - Fixed flashbangs not affecting movement controls - Fixed issue with high frame rates causing water to rise very quickly, along with screen effects (only affected users not using Vsync) If you have any further issues, please do contact me for support. Kind Regards, James.

1.5 is here, now with 6 languages!


Hi fellow Jump Gunners, 1.5 is live and brings new content and fixes. The most important update is that the game is now localised into 6 languages! English French Italian German Spanish Russian Pretty much everything that can be translated has been done, with the exception of the awards at the end of the round. They are tough to translate, so I am looking to simplify those for non-English languages and this will come in a future update. Many bug fixes are also in this version: - Fixed achievement bugs, especially with AI bots contributing towards achievement scores - Turkey hunt high score is no longer cumulative each round - Fixed spelling errors on main menu - Backdrops in menu's are darker to make it more readable - In game name label sizes have been increased - If you have a sniper rifle and pick up the flag, your laser sight no longer persists to show without the weapon equipped - Turkeys now move more erratically and leave faster - Horde mode no longer breaks if you retry in local coop There are also a few additions: - Watch out for coconuts, they hurt if they hit you on the head ;) - More hats added

  • Weapon re-balances across the board, and increased bullet collision accuracy
  • Major camera tracking improvements
  • Gameplay re-balancing, fixed a lot of issues with the overall game feel
  • Major performance updates, faster level load times
  • Tons of bug fixes
  • More hats of course!
For a more detailed description, please check the patch notes in the discussion forums. If you have any issues, feedback or suggestions for new features, as always please get in touch or post on the discussion forums, I am always keen to hear from the players! Now, work begins on the Xbox and PS4 versions, which should be coming soon. Stay tuned for more updates as we enter the console certification process. Happy Jump Gunning!

From GDC to EGX Rezzed


Hey everyone, now that GDC is finished, we are heading to EGX Rezzed in London with ID@Xbox as once again, Jump Gunners is featured by Microsoft as a highly anticipated indie title launching soon on Xbox One. GDC was an amazing experience, and we got great feedback from other developers such as Mike Bithell (Thomas Was Alone) and Tommy Refenes (Super Meat Boy) and some of the team at Mojang! The feedback was hugely positive, and it was great to see some of my gaming heroes playing and enjoying Jump Gunners! I must have played several hundred rounds of multiplayer with visitors to GDC during the week, and most have wondered why they haven't played it sooner, as everyone was having such a blast! Everyone loved playing 4 player local multiplayer rounds, and it was a title everyone was keen to get into their gaming nights :)
Yeah, that's Jump Gunners being showcased next to the new Super Meat Boy... crazy I know! There was also a lot of feedback and suggestions for game balancing, new updates and highlighting some bugs, which have all now made it into the upcoming 1.4 update, and also includes the new BOT AI so you don't need friends with you to play multiplayer! 1.4 is now just around the corner and will of course be a free update as always. Stay tuned for more info, and if you are going to be at EGX Rezzed, drop by the ID@Xbox stand and play some Jump Gunners!

Update 1.4 is coming


Hi everyone, now that GDC week is over, work continues on v1.4 which aims to bring a ton of new content, fix a lot of issues and address some balancing problems. GDC saw hundreds of people enjoying playing Jump Gunners, and the feedback on the game was so positive! However, it did highlight a few issues that need addressing in the game, the most important of which are balancing the levels, fixing a bunch of bugs that came up and fixing major performance issues with certain Capture the Flag levels and the particle systems. This update will also add a whole bunch of new features, along with some pretty major content additions, so stay tuned for more info. 1.3.1 was on its way, but it makes sense to merge those fixes into the 1.4 update. 1.4 is likely to be the branch that will head to Xbox and PS4. We have a switch version planned, but the control scheme needs changing completely to support local play with the Joycons. As ever, if you have any feedback, issues or questions, please do get in touch! Happy Jump Gunning!

EDIT: UPDATE 1.3.1 is now live, and I am confident that this makes the game experience a whole lot more enjoyable, based on the several hundred multiplayer maps I played with other designers / developers at GDC. Additions - Many levels completely re-balanced to make them more fun, some levels removed entirely (ones with overuse of spikes) Changes - Players can no longer Bullet Jump off the top of the screen, making players on the ground impossible to see - Removed the fire effect from all explosives with the exception of Rockets and Explosive Barrels - Sudden death now triggers both effects at the same time, not one or the other - Many environmental hazards were downright unfair, this has been fixed - Powerups and hazards are now far more random - Camera smoothly recenters now when a player dies, makes the transition less jarring - Player one can only control the main menu now - Players pressing cancel on multiplayer screen, no longer quits back to main menu - Player menu select sounds now disabled when player ready to play - Player gib parts no longer persist indefinitely, causing performance issues Bug Fixes - Bullet accuracy greatly increased - Player gib parts no longer persist, causing slowdown on many levels - Sniper scope laser no longer shows when player dies in Capture the Flag - Sniper laser no longer shows above smoke - Minigun now no longer makes other sound and music mute - Fixed issue with players using controllers for players 3 and 4 when player 2 or 3 are not playing

1.1 Update now live


Hey all, 1.1 is now live for PC, Mac and Linux and brings the following changes. Changes / Additions

  • New Music - Retro Reborn. A new option is available to switch between the superb classic soundtrack by David Gucwa, and the new Retro Reborn soundtrack by Alexander Giacoma. Both composers bring a unique flavor and musical style to the game, and I am so pleased to have collaborated with them both on this game.
  • New Weapon - Grenade Launcher. The devastating grenade launcher can now be found inside weapon crates, and is capable of clearing terrain (and other players) with ease, but be careful of friendly fire!
  • New hats - We all love more hats, right?
  • New levels - More levels have been added to the multiplayer game modes
  • Increased controller compatibility
  • Weapon balancing
  • Change the default round timer to 30 secs, no one was hitting sudden death with a 60 sec timer.
Bug Fixes
  • Fixed shotgun recoil
  • Fixed grenade collisions
  • Fixed cluster bomb collisions and auto detonation
A Christmas update will follow soon, bringing some festive cheer to Jump Gunners for the holidays :)
