Jamboy (or Jamboy, A Jelly Cious Hero, to give the game its full title) is a new retro-style 2D platformer that appears to be simply oozing with charm.
In Jamboy, players take control of a doughy hero who – along with his faithful companion Billy – has been swallowed by the giant Damien. Inside this biological labyrinth, players will traverse fleshy tunnels and face off against foody-fiends in a stomach‑churning mash‑up of action, platforming, and surreal comedy.
The game offers players two modes: Snack Mode for a relaxed experience and Buffet Mode for those with a stronger stomach. Post-campaign, players will also be able to indulge in Lost Levels, adding a further course to the proceedings.
“Jamboy was always a perfect fit for Switch and a handheld experience,” said Nakama Game Studio founder Pedro Antonio Seco de Herrera, adding “we’ve crafted a platformer that stirs fresh ingredients into a familiar recipe, ideal for devouring on the go.”
You can get a taste of Jamboy by tying the free demo on Switch or Steam right now, and if you find that the demo is a tasty treat (as we did), you’ll be able to get stuck into the full game when it launches on Switch and Steam on September 25th, 2025.
