From the Steam store

Jump, roll, smash, survive. John is a single player 2D platformer packed with prehistoric creatures, dangerous obstacles, and secrets worth taking a detour for.

Turn movement into your weapon. Carry your rolling speed into long jumps, smash enemies from above, break through obstacles, and time your parries to bounce upward. Chain your moves together while managing your stamina to make it through each level.

Face hungry dinosaurs, snapping plants, and bosses who put your timing to the test. Collect bones and spend them at the shop on equipment and supplies to help you tackle the next challenge.

Explore for hidden hats and easter eggs, fill your Discovery Log with the creatures you encounter, or chase faster completion times as you master each route. Want higher stakes. Take on The Plentiful Gauntlet where you have one life and no checkpoints.

This release includes Plentiful Plains, the first chapter of John. Later chapters are not included in the current version.
