Inspired by the classic DOS game Jump ‘n Bump, Build ‘n Bump retains all of the same head-stomping, multiplayer fun with a twist. You can build your own levels right before you play on them! The game features:
- 2-6 players simultaneously (4 controllers, 2 on keyboard)
- Local and online* multiplayer
- Five block types to build with (regular, spring, platform, spike, and dissolving)
- Unlimited number of save slots for levels
- Extra “hats” folder to import custom images into the game
- Practice mode against stationary targets
- “Level master” mode where one player edits the level in real-time while everyone else fights
* Note: The online mode is limited to one connection between two computers. Familiarity with port forwarding is required; there is no dedicated server or lobby.

Great 2D multi-player Brawler, the main objective is to jump over your opponents head, no power-ups and no attacks. clean and easy to use menus to setup matches, fast and fluid level builder and you are able to save your favorite created levels to use them again. controls are tight and responsive. overall the game is really fun and i can see myself playing it again and again and having some laughs with my friends and family when playing it.
P.S. as you can read in the game's description, the online play setup is not that simple though and might be a little tricky for people who has little knowledge about computers and networking.

As the information said, this is a head-stomping brawler game.
The game can only be played multiplayer (2-6 players).
In Build 'n Bump, you will need to build the level first before stomping head.
This is indeed a great small fun game to play with your friends.
Too bad I can't enjoy this game because I can only play it in single player.
In this type of game what makes it good/bad is the community that played it.

It is time to engage with this building map simulation alongside a remarkable community where the maps can be either whimsical or extremely intense! This game has been popular since the Xbox 360 era, so be sure to give it a try if you have not done so already, and the achievements remain enjoyable and relatively easy to earn! Build 'n Bump is a local multiplayer 2D platformer created by Roppy Chop Studios. Launched in 2015, the game introduces a distinctive twist to the traditional Jump 'n Bump concept by enabling players to construct their own arenas prior to participating in head-stomping confrontations.
-Multiplayer: Participate in rapid, head-stomping battles with up to six players locally. The game accommodates various multiplayer formats, including split-screen and LAN PvP.
-Gameplayer: Prior to each match, players have the opportunity to personalize the battlefield using five distinct block types: regular, spring, platform, spike, and dissolving. This functionality contributes an additional layer of strategy and creativity to the gameplay. It features a "Level Master" mode where one player modifies the map in real-time while others engage in combat, introducing dynamic challenges to each round.
Build 'n Bump distinguishes itself as an inventive and entertaining local multiplayer game that merges platforming action with level-building elements. Its focus on player creativity and fast-paced gameplay renders it an excellent option for gatherings and casual gaming sessions. Nevertheless, prospective players should be mindful of certain user-reported concerns regarding controls and user interface that may influence the overall experience.

I think that Build n Bump is a great game however, I think that it is hard to play multiplayer. I think there should be an option to invite friends so that I can do that without having to create or join a server. I think that in the future if things are layed out like this it could be great. Set it up like Castle Crashers or Monaco with a private option and a invite friends option.

Very fun I definatly would favor the build battle mode, but you do need 3 players.
I love the fact that youcan play on a laptop with WASD or ←↑↓→
Thank you.

Build 'n Bump is an incredibly simple game, but it's almost certainly proved itself at this point to be great value for money. It's my go to couch multiplayer game when I don't have controllers or a high-end PC to hand. It takes nothing to run, is super easy to set up with multiple players on a keyboard, and is intuitive and simplistic.
I've played this with all kinds of people, from kids with zero experience with games to experienced gamers. No matter who I play with, everybody seems to get a little kick out of playing it. The element that ties it all together is likely the ability to create custom stages. Building you own stages allows for you to:
Create genuinely balanced stages that are pretty fun to play.
Create utter hell nightmare scenarios, designed to kill you over and over.
Create levels that are just based around writing crude text insulting the other player.
The controls are rudimentary as anything: you move and jump, trying to land on the other player's heads to score kills, and thereafter, points. Contrary to popular belief, it's very possible to mess up the feel of a 2D platformer, and luckily Build 'n Bump doesn't, with the controls and character weight always feeling just right. The great game-feel is likely owed to the fact that the design as a whole is so simple, and focus was mainly put into the gameplay itself. Not to say that the gameplay is anything spectacular, just that it feels polished.
Build 'n Bump doesn't try to be anything it isn't. It also doesn't try to be much more than it is, which is its downfall. Its feel is akin to an old Flash game. It's nothing particularly deep or unique, but it's good fun to drop into for half an hour or so.

Build 'n Bump is a game where one can build a level and play/fight on it. There are various teams and bots to choose from, though a limited selection, it is a small game. The game stands out in local multiplyer, as the game can provide up to six players at a time;two with keyboard and four with controllers. It has Xbox 360 controller support. The game may be fun to play, but gets stale with a lack of people to play with. The game itself is a nice concept and would look forward for future updates.
