Log Jammers

Log Jammers is a competitive arcade game for online and couch multiplayer. You throw axes at your opponent’s goal, block incoming throws and defend your own goal to win the Log Jam. Its fast matches are easy to learn, with room to master the competition, and you can also play a solo tournament.

Modes and matches

Play locally with friends or compete online against other players. In Multi-Species Cheerleader Mode, cheerleaders float on trampolines in each end zone and act as a last line of defense: axes that get past you can hit them and knock them into the water. Twitch and Mixer integrations let chat take part through interactive features.

Power-ups can change the course of a match. They let you unlock character-specific special throws, catch stray axes with magnets, throw flaming axes or spill oil to make your opponent lose their grip.

Characters

The crooked mayor of Bateman Hills has assembled eight contestants, each with a distinct story, abilities and stats:

• Rad Carlton: A local beach bum and the son of Sheriff Thad Carlton, the mayor’s enforcer. The mayor blackmails him into competing with an ordinance that would ban surfing.
• Zombear: A massive undead woodland creature who seeks revenge on the mayor for starting a forest fire with illegal fireworks that killed him.
• Zombie Jack: Zombear’s archnemesis, drawn into the competition while in Bateman Hills to chop down its legendary border birches.
• Bruiser Bogartus: A strongman obsessed with wood. The mayor promises to fund his wooden exercise-equipment business if he wins.
• Mayo Monsoon: Once an employee of the Bateman Hills Mayo Company, he fell from a catwalk into a vat of mayonnaise. The company’s executives and the mayor covered up the accident, and Mayo is ready to confront the mayor.
• Ollie Oilsack: A local vagrant crushed by logs in an explosion at the Lincoln Timber Company. He knows the mayor ordered the explosion to drive the town’s homeless population away.
• Spare Rib Bonaparte: An animated skeleton and party-loving musician who never stopped rocking after the 1980s. After his antics disrupted the town, the mayor made sure he went out of a hotel window.
• Hot Foot Francis: The pride of Bateman Hills, competing with her athleticism to protect her community.

Each character has a story and personality, and their different stats and abilities let you choose a playstyle. Razer Chroma support adds lighting integrations, and mayonnaise is also part of the game.

Bateman Hills arenas

Matches take place in detailed levels tied to the town’s seedy history. The Mayonnaise Factory Spill is where Mayo Monsoon met his end, while The Bone Pile brings together skeleton spectators in colorful sunglasses and novelty beer hats. A Peaceful Beaver Pond places the match over a stream, with a beaver dam as the net, showing the forest as it was before the mayor’s fire.
