- Jump Gunners launches on Xbox One tomorrow!! - 22 July 2018
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 - 9 July 2018
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.

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…

- Update 1.4 is coming - 26 March 2018
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. 1.4 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 questi…

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