About Soviet Jump Game
Developed by Fantastic Passion and published by Game Grumps, Soviet Jump Game is a free to play battle royale pixel platformer available on Steam where a huge mass of online players duke it out until only one is left standing. This game is putting a modern twist on the nostalgic 2D platformer. The game pits players in a 50-person battle royale with matches lasting between 4 – 7 minutes. There you fight to survive using a wide variety of power-ups or by jumping on their head. The game has been in the early access stage and after rounds of testing and updates, version 1.0 is now available.
“It was a really interesting challenge to merge these two genres that have never met. A huge, looping map was created with eight biomes, each one about the size of Mario’s world 1-1. Familiar concepts to Battle Royale games like the map’s shrinking radius were translated into things like The Pain Wall. Where a large spiked wall spawns randomly in the map and grows outward” said Arin Hanson, co-founder of Game Grumps.
This is the second game from the multi-platform digital brand Game Grumps (who have amassed an amazing 7+ million followers online), with their first game, Dream Daddy, garnering tons of buzz and attention when it first launched in 2017.
