A Neon-Drenched Platforming Adventure

In this high-energy 2D platformer, you will aid the titular character, Mr. Run and Jump, as he faces off against the terrifying Void. Collect all the Power Gems, defeat the nefarious villain, and save both his trusty canine companion, Leap, and the vibrant Realms of Color!

Dodge enemies and navigate through hundreds of challenging platforming hurdles across multiple captivating levels. With precise controls and silky-smooth gameplay, Mr. Run and Jump is a speedrunner's utopia!

A Classic Reinvented

What makes this game even more special? It's a modern revival of a classic! Originally designed in 2021 as an Atari 2600 game by John Mikula at Graphite Lab, Atari has joined forces with the studio to produce a contemporary version for modern consoles and PCs. And trust us, it's a sight to behold!

Excited to jump into the action? Mr. Run and Jump is now available on Steam for $22.49 (10% launch discount until August 1st). The game seems like it will run great on the Steam Deck due to its minimum specs and visual quality and, to sweeten the deal, the game also has a native Linux build!

To heighten the nostalgia, Atari will open pre-orders for the limited edition 2600 version of Mr. Run and Jump on July 31st. This version, available in an authentic cartridge format, can be found at Atari.com
