Game summary

XUMP is a puzzle game by Psilocybin Development. The game is simple but will keep you busy for hours, and thats a promise! The game consists of a 20x12 playfield which is filled with various types of blocks. Your job is to make the blue blocks disappear from the playfield by stepping on them. There are five main types of block, each of which behave differently. The first levels are for 'easy entertainment'. At first the levels are small, then get bigger and harder at each stage. Even if you do not read the instructions here, you should be able to handle the game when you start at level 1. To make everything a bit more tricky keep track of the time, but don't panic. If you solve a level without fault you will get a 'well done'. This 'well done' is worth one extra chance, otherwise you will just get a 'done' without any bonus. A 'well done' is the only possibility in this game to get an extra life. Xump has participated in the 16 Days Coding Competition.
First released: Oct 2005

Play Xump: The Final Run on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Xump: The Final Run on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.

Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.

Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
