Synopsis

JJ is an action game developed and published by Square for the Famicom in 1987. In English, it is sometimes called, Jumpin' Jack, or by its subtitle, Tobidase Daisakusen Part II. The game was only released in Japan. The sequel to Tobidase Daisakusen (known in North America as WorldRunner 3D), JJ is a typical scrolling shooter, but it incorporates a third-person view, where the camera angle is positioned behind the main character. As in the previous title, the main character Jack must travel through different worlds, armed with his laser cannon and jumping ability, to defeat the serpentine beasts that have invaded the planets. JJ was Square's last game to use "3D mode" and 3D glasses, and was Square's last work before the creation of the popular Final Fantasy franchise. JJ's soundtrack consists of eight tracks, and all of them are remixed or reused in the game's prequel, WorldRunner 3D. The game was scored by Nobuo Uematsu, and is Uematsu's 16th work of video game music composition.
