Comic Jumper: The Adventures of Captain Smiley is an action game blending shooting, platforming, and beat 'em up combat, developed by Twisted Pixel and released exclusively on Xbox Live Arcade in 2010. It was the studio's third original title, following The Maw and 'Splosion Man. Players control Captain Smiley, a comic book superhero whose own series has flopped. To save his career, he travels into other comics across different genres, with his appearance and arsenal adapting to match each comic's distinct visual style. The gameplay shifts to reflect these genre changes, creating varied combat scenarios throughout the adventure. Critics gave the game above-average scores, with Metacritic recording a 73/100, and widely praised its comedy writing and comedic timing. The difficulty drew comparisons to 16-bit era games. The title sold over 40,000 copies in its first month and surpassed 103,000 copies by the end of 2011.
