Busy Busy Busy.

  I have completed quite a bit since last update, too much for me to remember, I will try and say all that's new when I release the next update.
Current Version 0.81(Not Released)
  To give you guys an idea of how much I have done, I just Finished the Last Level for the most part, Just need to add some finishing touches. I am not releasing any playable versions because everything I have made starts locked, but I have yet to add in the ability to unlock any of it, so...

  That's all for now.

Not Really a Demo, is it?

I have decided to stop referring to my releases as "Demos" since they are not really demos, but more like, releases of an early Unfinished version of a Game.
 So from now on, they will be labeled as:

Jumping Jim ver. x.xx

we are currently on

Jumping Jim ver. 0.63

...That's it for now.

Demo Ver.0.63

Well, I was playing through Level 2 of the demo when... I found out that it was too difficult without the Special Skills unlocked...So I made it easier...
As you can see, I was able to complete it now.

 I will have both Demo ver. 0.62 and 0.63 available for download, so you can see if you can do what I could not.

Quick Demo Update

I removed the Demo that I uploaded yesterday and replaced it with a ...hmm, Demo i'm more comfortable with. Here's what's different:

1: changed the Save file, it is now More difficult to edit (Hopefully)
2: Removed the "F" Key cheat, which I forgot about, and was only for debugging purposes (it made you fly, in case you were wondering)

That's all.

oh, about the song in the game, it is a temporary Place holder, it was made for my last game, but I found it too bland...but it was all I had available that I made, so for the demo, you are stuck with it.

My current best time on the demo, can you beat it...(I fell, like, 8 Times, so it should be easy to beat. "F9" takes a screenshot.)
