Our take on Cannon Jump
The defining mechanic is using a cannon’s downward blast to launch the character upward, making the climb a sequence of jumps and potential falls.
What is Cannon Jump?
Cannon Jump is an action climbing game built around rocket jumping.
A cannon provides the force for upward and forward movement as the character climbs toward a mysterious island and its rumored treasure. The game features high, long, precise, and inaccurate jumps. Poorly timed or aimed jumps can lead to falls, so reaching greater heights may take many attempts. Its structure centers on repeated jumps, climbs, and falls along an upward route. The game pairs atmospheric graphics with a soundtrack and draws inspiration from Jump King and Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy.
