Evaluation

Rico-Jump is a solo-developed, free-to-play Early Access game that launched on January 24, 2021. The developer — a single person working on the game as a hobby alongside a full-time job — shipped a steady stream of updates through early access, including major content milestones like Tier 2 (Bunny-Hopping, February 14, 2021), Tier 3 (Wallrunning, March 6, 2021), a Map Editor update (June 19, 2021), a Replays system (April 23, 2023), and a Spectator Mode (April 30, 2023). In total, 7 major content updates shipped across the game's lifetime up to that point. However, the last developer communication of any kind was on May 1, 2023 — a minor patch following the Spectator Mode release. There have been no posts, patches, or announcements since that date. As of June 2026, this represents over three years of complete silence. The game remains in Early Access and has never reached a 1.0 release. The April 2023 update noted that improvements to the Map Editor were the next planned step, but no follow-up has materialized. Given the developer's self-described circumstances (solo hobby project, full-time job), the game may simply have been set aside, but no official statement has been made about the game's future, a pause in development, or its conclusion. The game is still available and purchasable on Steam.

About this game

Welcome to Rico-Jump!


Rico-Jump is a single-/multiplayer 3D-Platform racer, where you try to beat the leaderboard by skillfully maneuvering through a futuristic obstacle course.
The movement mechanics are similar to the popular e-Sport title "Counter-Strike" and should therefore be familiar to most people.
The concept of using the jump-pads and maneuvering mid-air is easy to learn, but be assured, it is hard to master.
A map editor offers the possibilities to create your own Rico-Jump courses to challange your friends and the world.

Additionally, it offers 3 extra game modes, where you are able to throw balls at one another trying push other people off their platforms.
This is implemented as a Deathmatch-Mode as well as a Battle Royal-mode, with falling platforms.
The third game mode is a coop-based team-game.

This game is in early "Early Access" as I am developing it besides my full-time job as a hobby.
So expect some bugs and unpolished UI.

I hope you enjoy it and feel free to hit me up with your opinions and suggestions. :)
