Blockhead 2D

Blockhead 2D is a competitive platform game starring the Blockhead family: James, Jeb, Jack and Jill. You use each sibling’s special moves to defeat opponents by jumping on their heads. The game draws on 8-bit influences such as Mario Bros, Bubble Bobble, Joust and Balloon Fight, with local split-screen and LAN play alongside a single-player mode against the CPU.

Game modes

In Player VS CPU, you face an opponent controlled by the computer. Split-screen and LAN matches use the same head-jumping combat with friends. The game also has holiday modes with different objectives:

• Halloween: Smash 10 pumpkins as quickly as possible in a gloomy level with matching music.
• Thanksgiving: Smash turkeys that fly away, scatter when you approach and herd together. You can play alone or with friends.
• Christmas: Chase Santa Hanz, jump on his head to make presents fall from his bag, and smash as many as you can before time runs out.
• Valentine’s Day: Catch Cupid by jumping on his head before his fast homing arrows kill you. He is difficult to catch in the air.
• St. Patrick’s Day: Avoid Leprechaunz, a gold guardian who throws whiskey bottles, pokes players to death and taunts them in Gaelic. You must capture the pot of gold on your own.

The Blockhead family

Each character has distinct special moves and taunts:

• James: The patriotic ex-boxer uses burps to propel himself toward enemies. When uninjured, his Mega Burp instantly kills anyone he touches.
• Jeb: James’s brother has been hit in the head many times and is now slightly slow. His flatulence boosts him upward, and his Super Fart can hit anyone above him.
• Jill: The colorful, fast little sister is good at evading her brothers and does less damage. When hit, she can scream to enter a temporary berserk mode that increases her speed.
• Jack: A psychopath whose jump is higher than his speed, Jack can climb to greater heights. When injured, his loud screech kills anyone nearby.
