Hive Jump Kickstarter Launches!

Hive Jump is a fast paced 2D action platformer for 1-4 players, combined with run-and-gun gameplay. You and your friends will take on the roles of JUMPERS – mankind’s last hope for survival against a hostile alien race. J.U.M.P. Corps’ mission is to go planet-to-planet, wiping out alien hives into extinction. You can check out the just-launched Kickstarter here!

Graphite Lab explains the game as Spelunky meets XCOM. The levels of Hive Jump are procedurally generated, giving a unique and unpredictable playthrough every time. The game will require strategic planning amongst you and your friends, as you “Jump” through the hives, discovering relics, fight massive hordes of unique and challenging enemy types, until you get to none other than the Hive Queen. Each hive will vary in different biomes, and will require tactical planning prior to entering.

The game features music by Jimmy Hinson, a.k.a. Big Giant Circles, the composer of AAA titles such as Mass Effect 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, and Borderlands 2.

Hive Jump looks like an absolute blast, while maintaining depth and replayability. The Kickstarter goal is set for $50K, and by donating only $10 you can get a download code when the game is released. Hive Jump is set to be release for PC, Mac, Linux, and Wii U!

The game is already Greenlit on Steam, and you can check out the Steam page here. Be sure to keep up with everything Graphite Lab-related by liking them on Facebook and following them on Twitter.
