We’ve been following the release of the upcoming Metroidvania puzzle platformer JackQuest – The Tale of the Sword since March, and our forums are super stoked for the game. The game’s developer, Jose Neto (aka NetoX), just posted a full-blown gameplay trailer that in about ninety seconds will completely sell you on being excited for JackQuest:
We don’t have any details on when exactly JackQuest is going to be released beyond it being “almost there," but that’s good enough for me. This game totally looks like the kind of game that would have been released during the premium platformer glory days of the first few years of the App Store- And it’s super refreshing to see a developer keeping that particular candle burning.
Whenever JackQuest finally hits, I’ll play it.
Played in Beta, game was difficult and fun! Very excited for this.
Also played in the beta. I’m very excited for this game. The trailer didn’t show the sword talking while he was going through the levels. I suggested that it would be fun and bring more life to the characters and show some backstory and personality of the sword if they’d kinda have little convos as you adventure (sort of like swordians in tales of destiny) which he did add in and I loved it and not just because it was my idea lol. Hopefully it’s still in the game.
I’m definitely in for this one! Sign me up! 😉
