The Game

Just Keep Running is a parkour platformer that seamlessly blends fast-paced problem-solving and freerunning player movement. Delve into a thought-provoking narrative that explores superhuman abilities, governmental ethics, and the future of humanity.

Race against the clock as you navigate intricate test chambers meticulously designed to challenge your quick wit but also your ability to execute your plans swiftly. Hone the power of your freerunning skills to beat your and others' best times.

Just Keep Running offers a unique aesthetic, drawing visual inspiration from popular voxel-based games such as Teardown, The Touryst, and Cloudpunk. Prepare for heart-pounding action as you embrace gameplay mechanics reminiscent of beloved titles like Mirror's Edge, the Portal series, and Ultrakill.

🥳WE’RE ₛₜᵢₗₗ ALIVE! - V. 2.3.0, JKR for Charity, and Project T-1000

May 2 2024 News

👋Hi! You might be wondering where we’ve been.

Well, first of all, I.M.I.Self is mostly a one-man operation. So when life requires me to prioritize other important aspects of it, I get busy! And while JKR is a lot of fun to work on, it’s also very time-consuming. This is why we haven’t been as active on here or on socials, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t stood still completely!

I’ve been busy working on and playtesting Project T-1000 (which we’ll talk about later!), hanging out with ours and other creator communities, and we’re getting back into the swing of JKR! 😀

🥳V. 2.3.0 COMING THIS WEEKEND!

That’s right! We have some new stuff to add and improve before Steam Fest kicks off, and some of these things you’ll find in this next version coming (hopefully) this Saturday! (Worst case, Sunday)

“Hiding” Feature Showcase

We’re working on some new features for players who prefer to play more stealthily. One of the features you’ll notice in 2.3.0 includes Hiding spots! These give you the ability to hide behind and/or under certain furniture without getting spotted by Roof Turrets and/or Security Guards (so long as you haven’t been spotted entering a hiding spot.)

We are still prototyping more potential Upgrades and features that enhance the “Stealth” elements of the game, and other useful one-time buffs, plus some QoL stuff that both new players and veterans will appreciate, so stay tuned!

End Screen Upgrades - notice the new prompts at the bottom

One other thing we want to highlight quickly is that you can now enable/disable and apply Upgrades after beating a level! This will make Upgrades more accessible and, hopefully, make them play a more active role during the game :)

🏃❤️Just Keep Running for Charity

Yup! We’re running a SALE for Just Keep Running THIS SATURDAY, and ALL PROCEEDS ARE GOING TO CHARITY! We raised over $70 for Heart to Heart International last time, so let’s try to BEAT THAT RECORD! ❤️

For just a dollar, you can get Just Keep Running as well as some other benefits, such as HQ Downloads of the Soundtrack, Bonus Content, and Steam Keys for Just Keep Running! (Once we launch in Early Access)

100% of all Net Earnings from the Sale and Twitch Revenue will be donated to World Central Kitchen, which prepares & serves fresh, nourishing meals to communities and areas impacted by natural disasters and during humanitarian crises.

If you wanna support the cause, you can either PAY FOR JUST KEEP RUNNING via the sale, or you can WATCH VSWEDEOFFICIAL on Twitch, where Victor does Gaming content and Dev Streams of Just Keep Running & T-1000, and contribute via cheering, tipping, subscribing, or watching ads!

You can read more about the I.M.I.Self Hope Initiative here!

Project T-1000: Now in Playtesting!

We’ve been running Balancing Playtests for Project T-1000 for a research paper and to get the gameplay balance right for the game! The plan is to adjust certain gameplay elements to make the game fit a broad majority of playstyles, and hopefully, by Q3 of this year, we’ll have a public demo available for y’all to play! 😀
