Bamboo Jumper is a casual 3D platformer game designed for smartphone. You play as a tick, jumping up the leaves of a bamboo plant in order to reach the cute giant panda grazing on higher leaves. Lower levels will have heaps of leaves and plenty of opportunities to jump, where-as higher levels will require more skill due to having more gaps and smaller landing spaces. The gaps themselves are the only obstacle. The game world is 3D, meaning that the player will need to rotate the screen in order to see the leaves better at times, but the tick will automatically land if you change direction as you jump (video game physics at its' best ;] )

Movement is done using the motion sensor on the phone as well as the touchscreen.. With the phone held horizontally (this is obvious due to the layout of the game on the game screen), tilting the whole phone right will move your tick right, and vice versa with left. Holding your finger on the screen will charge your jump, and the player can release at any time during the charge (including right away) to use the jump command. Rotating the screen would be done by holding the very side of the screen to the direction you want to go, and if you change your mind about a jump when you already have your thumb/finger held down, you can cancel by dragging to this area too.

Rewards for completing a level include star ratings, and an adorable picture of a tick loving its new host (no gore, just hearts and smiles). The target audience is casual players and kids.
