JumpmanJumpman is an early platform game from Epyx, written by Randy Glover and released in 1983. It has 30 levels and was published for Commodore 64, Apple II, IBM PC and Atari 400. Jumpman was also the original name for the Nintendo character Mario in his first game Donkey Kong. When Nintendo realized this name was taken, they changed the name of the character to Mario. Sequels Jumpman was followed by Jumpman Jr., which was available for Commodore 64 and ColecoVision. In 1991 Jumpman Lives!, written by Dave Sharpless, was released by Apogee Software. However, since Epyx still owned the rights to Jumpman, Apogee was forced to withdraw the game. In 1998 Randy Glover became aware of the many fans of Jumpman and started working on Jumpman II, but several sources state that development has now stopped on this project. In 2000 Midnight Ryder Technologies (http://www.midnightryder.com/) received the rights to develop Jumpman: 2049. Levels "Beginner" Levels (1-8) Easy Does It
