Features

The fight for survival continues! It's been a productive couple of months since the last update. We’re excited to share a new demo and have a survey live here where we’d appreciate any of your feedback on how to keep improving Hive Jump 2: Survivors.

  • New Jumpers have been deployed!
    • Cryo Jumper - This Jumper brings a chill to the heart of the hive, turning the tide of battle by slowing and stopping enemies, allowing allies to maneuver and strike with deadly precision.
    • Exterminator - Designed for dealing with dense alien infestations, the Exterminator Jumper is a formidable force in bio-control warfare.
    • Gold Jumper - This elite variant enjoys enhanced health and maximum equipment capacity, along with the ability to glean extra goo from pickups—a testament to its luxurious efficiency.
    • Marksman - Armed with precision-engineered mag slugs, this Jumper can eliminate threats from a distance, with their attack range increasing with every level.
    • Plasma - The plasma charger they wield sends devastating bolts of energy that not only damage but also forcefully repel enemies, with increasing knockback strength gained at each level.
    • Tank - Equipped with the Brass Blessing, a weapon as robust as the Jumper itself, this variant is significantly slower due to a massive movement speed debuff but benefits from considerable increases in health and defense.
    • Techno Jumper -  This Jumper variant comes equipped with a Smart Turret utility, an automated defense system that provides both offensive and defensive support.
    • And more!

  • All new store interface with re-designed UI, new animations, and additional statistics!
    • The price will always be at the top followed by the content.
    • Three columns instead of quads.
    • Less clicks to see the info you need.
    • No more star ranks. They were confusing everyone.

    • Blue - Enhanced Tech (uncommon)
    • Purple - Advanced Tech (rare)
    • Red - Quantum Tech (epic)
