Blind Jump is a simple action/adventure game, featuring procedurally generated level maps, collectible items, fluid animation, and meticulously designed color palettes. Supports multiplayer with a link cable.

Evan Bowman started the project in late 2015 while in college, and resumed work on the code after a several year long hiatus, during which he was teaching himself oil painting.

Originally developed for macOS, the game was rebuilt from scratch during the 2020 pandemic, with a new custom engine. Blind Jump now compiles for various other platforms, including Linux, Windows, Nintendo Gameboy Advance, and Sony PlayStation Portable.
