Joggernauts
Release: 2018
Jog! Jump! Switch! Coordinate the crazy conga line of teleporting alien athletes in this autorunner / puzzle platformer for 1-4 players.
Joggernauts is a cooperative switching game where you try NOT to kill your friends! Coordinate a team of auto-running characters through deceptively difficult color-coded platforming puzzles. Help the Joggernauts find all of C.O.A.C.H.'s missing trophies. Challenge yourself to play two characters at once, or gather your friends and family for some frantic fun. People who love Bit.Trip Runner, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Space Team, or even Bop It should be right at home in this game. Yell colors at your friends and family!
History
After two best friends played a particularly rowdy all-day session of Bit.Trip Runner, Joggernauts was born as a brutally difficult multiplayer auto-runner prototype with a switch-who-is-in-front mechanic. That original demo was tested by Zach Johnson in the Minneapolis, MN game development community. That's where Zach met artist Tommy Sunders and musician Robert Frost (no relation). The team of three formed the company Space Mace, started touring festivals, and ultimately landed a publishing deal.
Our process has been about frequent public playtesting with an iterative approach to game design and level design made possible by the support of our awesome local community in Minneapolis.
