JAZZ: Trump's Journey Just Might be the Most Intriguing Upcoming Platformer on iOS

Posted by Rob Rich on January 5th, 2012

Egg Ball and BulkyPix are about to release a new platformer on the App Store. Please hold all sarcastic golf claps until I've finished. It's not exactly an under-represented genre, but JAZZ: Trump's Journey certainly looks to be a stand-out title.

It's not just the traipsing through New Orleans circa the 1920's. It's also the awesomely stylized graphics, as well as the plot (inspired by the life of one Louis Armstrong no less) involving bringing jazz music to life for the first time in human history. Then there's the way the game's music will build, layer upon layer, as Trump begins recruiting musicians. There's so much about this game that sounds awesome.

Of course, we'll have to wait for it to come out before knowing if it lives up to expectations. It certainly looks like it will, though. Fortunately it won't be an incredibly long wait. JAZZ: Trump's Journey is scheduled for a universal January 19th release. No word yet on a price but I'm going to assume that whatever it is, it'll be worth it.
