98xx

About this game

The 98xx was an old computer OS from the 90s that’s recently been discovered after many years of being lost. There are still a few working files within the OS that can be explored, but there are a few unexpected glitches. One program in particular which goes by the name of "Jumping Julian" on the surface seems like your typical 2D platformer, but as the game goes on, weird things start to happen. Play at your own risk!

  98xx Rebooted

  Hey everyone! I wanted to make this post because I’ve had some people reach out to me, still asking where 98xx Rebooted is, and for those that don’t know, a while back, I announced its discontinuation as I have been working on a brand-new project instead. There are multiple reasons why it was canceled, but the main reason was that I wasn’t enjoying making it anymore, and I had a feeling it wouldn’t be worth it in the end. If you’re not passionate about your project, then don’t even bother forcing it, and that’s the decision I had to make. For those who are disappointed and want to know how the game would have ended up, along with the story/lore, I posted a bunch of short stories titled “98xx Stories of the Past” on the 98xx Discord back in May. A YouTuber who goes by the name of FlightlessBird read each story in video form, so if you want a better explanation of the full story, then you should check him out! I will link his playlist below. I’ve felt good with this decision since I’ve become burnt out with the whole horror genre, as I was doing it for over 2 years at that point. Plus, the whole 98xx thing with Julian & Friends has kind of died out now, and trying to milk it for the sake of relevancy is never a good idea. I hope you all understand my decision, and I can assure you I am much happier working on my new project since I’m extremely passionate about it! Much love to all of you guys, and thank you all for the support over the years. Remember, when things get tough, never give up hope. -Jackson98xx Stories of the PastMy new game is available for Wishlist!Wishlist

  Thank You

  HUGE thank you to everyone who bought a sticker and supported Nathaniel’s Childhood Cancer Foundation! You guys have made many children very happy. As the 98xx rebooted series sadly had to be discontinued, I still wanted to do one more thing, since I’ve always wanted to use what I do to help those in need. This now ends an era, and I’m so thankful to everyone who supported these projects from the beginning. But not to worry, you’ll always have these games to return to since they’ll always be there for you to play anytime you want! Also, mark my words, Julian and his friends will return someday! Much love to all of you! – JacksonClick here if you want to continue to support the foundation!
