Pumpkin Jack

This is a wonderful little 3D platformer that knows exactly what it is, and tries as much as possible to recapture that feeling you got from PS2-era platformers as a kid. Being someone that played a lot of Jak, Rachet+Clank and the like, Pumpkin Jack absolutely delivered. Short runtime, but well worth the experience!

In Pumpkin Jack you play as a rather likeable and stylish pumkin-headed dude. It is obviously inspired by Medievil, but surpasses it on many many levels. For those who don't know Medievil: I'm sorry. But not to worry, here you get you fix on running, jumping, hitting enemies and collecting various things all mixed up in a nice and interesting story. You want to relax after work, not think too much, don't talk to anyone because you have to talk during work the whole time? Sit back, relax, get a controller (seriously, you want a controller for that) and play for a level or five. Pumpkin Jack is the type of game where you will be happy just because you will be glad that obviously games like this are obviously still made. Please make another one, it doesn't need to be a sequel, maybe new characters + setting, this formula is just so innocently enjoyable! Tl;dr: good jump&run, want more!

Good game. Polished, great graphics, smooth gameplay, nice weapons and puzzles. Only remark is the lack of replay value. Once you're done with it, you're done with it.

A easyt-to-moderately difficult platform game with some button-mashing combat and minigames. It has lots of eye-candy spookiness, especially with raytracing enabled. I particularly enjoyed the Cemetery and Christmas Village levels. I wish the weapons felt a bit better to use. The gun has a predictable dash attack, and I wish every weapon was given a guaranteed dash attack. Other than that, it was the perfect October game!

it was fun
