Hello! I'm Ben from Octopirate Games and I'm proud to announce the release of our first game Cactus Jumper!
You can view a small trailer and see screenshots on our Google Play listing:

I urge you not to dismiss it as an endless runner on first glance. The gameplay is actually very different.
Instead of running forward at an automatic speed you have to choose to jump 1, 2, or 3 spaces, and try and land in a square with no Cactuses.
It may sound very easy and simplistic but as soon as the pressure is on from your thirst meter draining (because you're in a hot desert) you must jump forward fast enough to collect water canteens.
It has a pretty unique feeling to it I haven't really seen in any casual games. I think it's a ton of fun and I urge you all to give it a quick try before dismissing it.
If you find the gameplay fun, there's a whole lot of content to keep you busy, over 40 missions to do each round, 40+ achievements, over 30 different hats you can equip that give you special abilities. 8 different characters including some just for the luls like a Velociraptor and a whale. (Surprisingly the whale is not so good at jumping.)
Basic example of gameplay
There's different areas you eventually reach which have different challenges. For example in the cave the Thirst bar is replaced by a torchlight bar and your light radius slowly shrinks if you can't collect torches. Different hats give you different powerups, and the miners hat seen above makes your light radius in the cave much brighter.
Raptor character in the Jungle zone
The tuque makes everything freeze for a little while, turning the cacti into harmless snowmen.
Wizard hat gives you a bubble boost when you collect enough magic.

I'd love for everyone to give it a try and leave me some feedback!
Also a rating and +1 in the Google Play store would go a long way to helping me get this game noticed. Thanks for your time!
