Jet Kave Adventure is a rock-solid (pun intended) platformer that doesn’t outstay its welcome and offers addictive, retro-style gameplay. If you’ve ever enjoyed any of the Donkey Kong Country titles, Jet Kave Adventure is an earnest tribute that you’re sure to enjoy.
Jet Kave Adventure is a fun action/platformer that anyone can enjoy. It’s a little on the short side (for the price) and could use some extra features to keep the player interested, but it looks great and is easy to play.
Great sidekick to Donkey Kong. For $20 this game has great value. Graphics great. Gameplay Great. Music Good. Its overall very fun and enjoyable to play. Challenging and not easy as I thought was going to be. This is my first review on Metacritic. I especially did this once I saw this game was not getting the praise it deserves! I'm experienced Gamer 30+ years. This game should be a top seller on Switch! Don't be fooled by the low price. You can tell a lot of effort was put into this game. Should be rated much higher than a 5.5 that is a disgrace to this game! This is one of the best games on Switch for sure!!
Easily accessible to players of all audiences, Jet Kave Adventure doesn't break new grounds but does a competent job at delivering a good experience with competent level design and well implemented mechanics.
Jet Kave Adventure is a 2D platform game that has everything to be a great game: very beautiful graphics, good melodies and great playability. It fails in something as important as the design of levels, since they are too conventional and do not contribute anything new to the genre. However, it is still an enjoyable title.
Jet Kave Adventure looks good but feels uninspired and altogether too easy for the type of game it is. Considering the strong competition on the Switch, it's hard to recommend this one to any but the most die-hard platformer fans or the younger gamers out there looking to dip their toes in the genre.
Getting a few things right just isn’t enough when the core of play — the platforming — is this troubled. Jet Kave Adventure was so awkward and problematic that I had to stop playing. When I see games with problems, I usually want to offer suggestions on how things could have been fixed, but the issues here run too deep — all I can say to the developers is that I wish them better luck next time.
Donkey Kong kaveman 2
I've been playing platformers for over two decades, it is my favorite genre in gaming.
Jet kave Adventure is an indie platformers in it's pures form. The game feels mostly inspired by Donkey Kong Country 2. Some of the scenery are actually beautiful, platforming through levels feels great. The game has decent controls and the music is atmospheric. I can see the developers put a lot of time and effort in the game. I would call this game a hidden gem in the Switch library.
I recommend this games for people like me who like to buy a platform game on Sunday morning and finish the game on Sunday afternoon. If this game was made by a tripple a developer, I would give the game a 6, but since it is made by an indie developer Jet kave Adventure deserves a solid 7 out of 10. If you are a 36 year old man-child thinking about those wonderful Super Nintendo platform games from the 90's like me, you'll feel right at home with Jet Kave Adventure. I bought the game for €3,- and do not regret that for one second. Also if you are a veteran within the genre, I highly recommend to not upgrade your hearts to keep the game challenging!
Jet Kave Adventure
A decent donkey kong game
Jet Kave adventure is a 6 and a half hour long platformer very similar to the likes of a donkey kong country game, here you play as a caveman that was chased out of his tribe for being an awful hunter, you of course get jet pck, and you travelthrough a variety of levels, simply surviving, this is a pure platformer, dodge, attack, find secrets and go forward, secrets that are actually worth finding ad you can spend them on upgrades, increasing your health, rocks you can throw, food supply you can save up to regain health, get from checkpoint to checkpoint, its really cute and enjoyable, that Is for a couple of hours.. however jet kave adventure feels so generic that it gets pretty stale after only 2 hours of playing.. at least it did for me.. it doesn’t do anything new and its level design all stick to a theme until you defeat that areas boss, so needless to say, you aren’t excited to play the next level, wondering what its going to throw at you.. because you just saw what its going to throw at you in the past 5 levels.. you get 9 levels of the same thing with the ocassional awkward dodge mini games and the awkward boss battles … it wont do anything to excite you or have you kraving more.. but as gneric as it is jet kave adventure is decently enjoyable, just not a must have for yout collection..
I give Jet Kave Adventure
a 6.5/10
