Headup‘s spooky 3D platformer Pumpkin Jack is available on the PlayStation Store, playable on PS4 and PS5. You can also get the soundtrack; it is available for several digital platforms, all listed here on ffm.to.
Pumpkin Jack is set in a dazzlingly eerie world – imagine a mashup of Jak & Daxter and MediEvil made with Unreal Engine 4. Even though it was created by just one single developer, Nicolas Meyssonier, the 3D platformer features a hair-raising array of gameplay mechanics providing an entertaining playtime of 5-8 hours (one run).
