@@phoenixwhiler943 If you have the motivation and time (or pay money) to. Not everyone has that. I reached a point where I completed the Dexes but couldn't keep grinding coins and diamonds for the pond booster, decorations, and friendship items.
As a game designer, this was a very curious experience. It’s basically a simple idle/"clicker" game (think Cookie Clicker, with all the purchasable boosters, and the idle elements being food because it can accumulate even when the game is offline, and training because these have long recharges) in all aspects, but they went all in on the Magikarp theming and it resulted in a very fun experience overall as a result. I remember spending an irresponsible amount of time on this during my university days… Generally the enjoyment of idle games like these is derived from seeing the variety among the repetition. And Magikarp Jump was pretty fun at this. Apart from the aforementioned pattern variety (and they had a Dex for those), there were numerous silly Magikarp themed events which could boost, retire or kill your Magikarp in silly ways, and numerous absurd training minigames you can buy which involve your Magikarp performing ridiculous exercises The designers really put their hearts into the sheer number of silly Magikarp shenanigans, and that made the game fun despite its simplicity. In a current mobile market full of microtransactions and live service games constantly demanding attention, it’s kinda nice to see Magikarp Jump just… casually exist on the App Store, no update or anything required. And I hope it continues to stay around as a cute experience
Honestly, I never thought tapping random berries in the water was going to get me so addicted, but Majokarp jump ended being basically my entire life for 2 months straight 😅
Random note, I’m still so heartbroken that Pokémon Duel got canned. That game was absolute fire and, unlike many other competitive mobile games, not all that pay-to-win
@@dragonmaster3030 Tbh, that makes me torn. Love masters for some of the outfit designs and the expanded lore for characters we wont see in a mainline game for a while. On the other hand, Duel is such a better game on the gameplay side than Masters. Shame we could only have one...
@@the_godbodor7026 I prefer gameplay and to be honest, masters doesn't really have that, also all things considered I was kinda invested into duels original characters like Sharon, another thing to note is duels music, time to time I still hear the menu theme in the back of my head. I remember using gabite on most my teams, really interesting what that thing could do, just wish it didnt take till final update for mega chomp to release
@Dragon Master Fair fair. And either way, Duel was dealt such a dirty hand being taken down so quickly. Imagine this game still being supported today, there would definitely be a tournament scene around the game (especially if one formed around GO’s basic battle system).
@@the_godbodor7026 didn't duel already have a small tournament scene, I remember their being some sort of exclusive figures given to high placements during event times though maybe thats something else
I wish more Pokemon games delve into the pet raising aspect of it. Like make a standalone game all about Pokemon contests and you have to raise your Pokemon how a Pokemon Coordinator would by taking care of its fur, feeding it and just making the Pokemon happy.
I will say, I really appreciated the attention to detail with shinies in the game, as the Corsola and Luvdisc could be shiny, and the shiny golden Magikarp would even be red if it accidentally evolved. As a meme game, it was quite enjoyable xD
I played this all the way up to 2020, and I think one of the coolest things that ever happened for me was seeing one of the background Luvdisc be shiny
i hope this game gets to stick around a good long time. i don’t want this sweet little overblown joke to get wiped out by planned obsolescence just yet.
Crazy to think that, af all Pokémon mobile games, Magikarp Jump overlived Pokémon Duel, which was also a phenomenal game with potential to be even better. Man those days were good...
Thank you for featuring not only this game, but also the non-Pokemon conterpart and briefly Pokemon Duel! I played all these games in 2017 and you definitely unerthed my nostalgia! I am glad we can actually put more focus on good mobile games because not only do they exist, but are so so overshadowed by the hungry giants! I am still nostalgic for mobile games from 2015 before the microtransaction boom and I am stupid sad I can't find them anymore!
It's like a hidden gem of a game and I feel sort of happy that many of the mainstream folks don't know about it, It almost feels like an esoteric piece of art out there.
I remember I was so happy when getting rewards on special event, until this one event that it's either I get a reward or Pidgeotto will get it. My jaw drop to the floor when Pidgeotto catch my Magikarp.
I love magikarp jump! I still have my original save and occasionally pick it back up. I’ve caught so many shinies in it that I get disappointed they’re shinies instead of a rare pattern. 😂 I finished all the battles a long time ago but still go through phases of playing it a ton to try to complete my pattern dex. It’s a great mobile game for sure!
This game is very simple, yet the low stakes give it a very zen and calming atmosphere that gives players a chance to unwind and relax. While most mobile games push aggressively push and are built around microtransactions this game is actually pretty ethical about it. There's no button for thr store on the main screen and you have to click through a few menus to even get to it.
I literally just redownloaded it last night! I never got far enough in to see all of the events and patterns, so learning that they actually change colors, other than the shiny, is completely new to me and now I HAVE to get them
This came out when I was in college, and frankly I spent an absurd amount of time playing it. I had unlocked every single pattern and every single death (including Dratini) and played through the entirety of the jump league that was available at that point haha. It was a fun time. It’s funny you mentioned Surprise Mola Mola because I also spent an absurd amount of time playing that game too 😂
I can agree with axecon, as a younger kid i LOVED this game and never stopped playing it! i remember catching a golden majikarp once and screaming about it. seeing this brought back some good childhood memories
I played this game quite a bit ago and enjoyed it! It has a lot of charm and it is very addicting. I don't think it could be anything bigger like Im not exactly sure if I should ask for a console version or a sequel, but I think if anything else comes out of it then that would be great (didn't know the there was an anime episode with it, that's nice). Also I like the protag they created for the game. One of those protags you can't tell the gender of and they kinda stand out with their design doing good for that aspect in that you couldn't really tell just from their design, it's actually kinda charming. Finally... This is one of the only free mobile games I spent money on XD. I am not proud of it, but I guess it is one of the better ones, so... Ehhh. It did have this weird diamond system where if you pay more you get more, and I can see how that makes things more tempting to buy more, but it does also feel like we 'have' to pay a certain amount to really get the most out of the game, so.... I am just unsure I admit on that aspect I admit.
Anybody remember that annoying caterpe babysitting simulator in hey you pikachu? You know. The one that would make you bald yourself as a kid? That one? Yeah. That's the follow up we need to magikarp jump! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!
My favourite thing to do in that game was go “WELCOME TO MAGIKARP BOOTCAMP! WHAT WE DONT DO HERE IS SLACK OFF,IF THERE IS FRUIT TO EAT WE WILL EAT IT AND IF THERE IS TRANING TO DO WE WILL DO IT!”
this game was always such a charming thing to play for a bit and see what happens. also interesting thing to note when you tap manaphy and the corsola and luvdisc show up there's a very small chance one of them will be a shiny corsola or luvdisc
I'm definitely going to download this game but I wasn't expecting to see you survive mola mola cuz I play The Battle cats and that game collabs with the Battle cats pretty much every single year
Wow, I havent played this game for a while. I really loved it while the hype lasted, considered replaying it sometime but for now i think Magikarp Jump is incredibly addictive
3:12 pains me every time... I like that they did that tho. Wish there was a way to see all the gens. However, other than they randomly appear swimming in the background of our comically large pond... that might be connected to the sea. Show me my 140+ babies dammit 😂
I never knew this was a thing, but after this video I looked it up and it’s still available! I’m on my 5th Generation rn, he’s a Gold Magikarp named Garden, and I’m loving it so far! I especially love that they give you diamonds for EVERYTHING-I can’t spend even a dollar on games but playing totally free for just one day I have 347 diamonds and I’m getting ready to pick my first pond decoration. Thanks so much for introducing me to this!
I played the hell out of the both Magikarp jump and pokemon duel I still play jump today, and I really miss duel..I was pretty good and had a jacked team (lunala, Mimikyu, haxsorus, groudon, darkrai,& shiny metagross) I still have a screenshot of a match where I managed simultaneously block both of my opponents entry points and knock out their pokemon on the board
This game was fun! I forgot why I stopped playing but it was such a wholesome game. I loved all the different types of Magikarp. It was kind of nice to see one of the most useless pokemon get some love. Edit: Really glad the game is still up the title mislead me a bit
I remember playing this, I would play all night just to raise one Magikarp, also tried to download survive mola mola as well as reinstalling magikarp jump to see the differences but the app isn't available since it was made for older devices, ah well, I'll have fun training up Magikarp again
I remember playing when it was launched. I cried the first time my magikarp was kidnapped by a pidgeot, I remember I didn't touch the game for one week over the trauma.
This is so fun because i am playing magikarp jump right now. Back when it released, my phone didn't have the storage for it (only 4GB in total....) and then downloaded it in 2021 when i got a new phone, and started playing it again recently because i forgot about it. It's really fun to play, it doesn't require your full attention during the entire day and i find it fun raising so many different magikarps
It came out while I was at London MCM comicon and well, adored the theming. Would probably be willing to spend money for a little idle like this, if it didn't have microtransactions.
I found a bug in the game that lets you get an infinite amount of gems a long time ago, finished the game in just over a week, and didn't even bother looking for the end game magikarp colours
Man, I miss this game. It really was just a nice, feel-good game with no pressure or money gouging. I was so sad when I beat the game, because then there was nothing to do anymore, and I eventually juat got bored and uninstalled it after doing everything and unlocking everything.
I used to love this app! I had to stop playing cause one day, around 1am after a long, stressful day at work. I decided to go dip in the pool, and also decided to play some more magikarp jump, while in the pool, sitting over the deep end. Well, My phone decided to copy magikarp and jump into the pool. Rice could not save it from the deep end.
i was obsessed with Magikarp Jump in high school ...... when i had to get a new phone though something went wonky with the backup and it lost half my data :[ i gave up after that. but i had the game 100%'ed by then, unlocked everything and won all the tournaments.
I thought it lasted as long as originally planned. I did wish we could transfer the cool magikarp designs to PoGO and subsequently console games. The song was also in the game if you tapped the TV, same with ghost girl.
Magikarp Jump is great *because* it doesn't have all the bullshit other mobile games have. It's got a bit of grind, but I went F2P until the final stretch and then bought the diamond miner just because I loved the game so much. No loot boxes, no bullshit, just pure Magikarp.
If you still have your old phone, you can manually back up the game then input a code to restore that backup onto any device. In case you wanna play your old save. I'm currently on my 3rd phone with magikarp jump (been playing for years and up until my current phone I would upgrade every time my contract ended)
my favourite moment playing this game is the time i got 3 shiny magikarps in a row after each retired i was so confused how it happened but loved that it did.
I 100% this game and did it over an entire summer completely F2P. I don't know why other than this game was stupidly addictive.
Yeah, definitely is the king of game that works for that!
You're probably one,of the few,people who 100% this masterpiece. Kudos
@@WardofSquidreally isn’t that hard tbh
@@phoenixwhiler943 If you have the motivation and time (or pay money) to. Not everyone has that. I reached a point where I completed the Dexes but couldn't keep grinding coins and diamonds for the pond booster, decorations, and friendship items.
@@WardofSquid took me a while but it’s definitely doable, I was addicted to it but once I beat it I trashed it
As a game designer, this was a very curious experience. It’s basically a simple idle/"clicker" game (think Cookie Clicker, with all the purchasable boosters, and the idle elements being food because it can accumulate even when the game is offline, and training because these have long recharges) in all aspects, but they went all in on the Magikarp theming and it resulted in a very fun experience overall as a result. I remember spending an irresponsible amount of time on this during my university days…
Generally the enjoyment of idle games like these is derived from seeing the variety among the repetition. And Magikarp Jump was pretty fun at this. Apart from the aforementioned pattern variety (and they had a Dex for those), there were numerous silly Magikarp themed events which could boost, retire or kill your Magikarp in silly ways, and numerous absurd training minigames you can buy which involve your Magikarp performing ridiculous exercises
The designers really put their hearts into the sheer number of silly Magikarp shenanigans, and that made the game fun despite its simplicity.
In a current mobile market full of microtransactions and live service games constantly demanding attention, it’s kinda nice to see Magikarp Jump just… casually exist on the App Store, no update or anything required. And I hope it continues to stay around as a cute experience
personally im hoping that someday these magikarp variants get implemented into the main games somehow. a real alcremie moment for magikarps.
I guess it's just like a magikarp "they can survive in the harshest of ponds" or something like that lol
Honestly, I never thought tapping random berries in the water was going to get me so addicted, but Majokarp jump ended being basically my entire life for 2 months straight 😅
?
it’s not really an idle game, are you sure you’re a game designer ?

I remember getting a shiny Magikarp once, they got snatched away by that damned bird. 6 year old me was crying.
I love the fact that you can see the previous generation magikarps in the background. It's such a nice little detail
I still miss Pokémon Duel. That game was fun as all hell.
Really wish I would’ve played it a lot more before it shut down 😔
@@GatorEX same
Same 😢
Me too
Same I wanted to see more of the story

Was high up on the priority list! Had to talk about my friend, Magikarp.
I used to love this game! Definitely gotta re-download it
Man, hearing Magikarp Jump and Pokemon Duel brings back fond memories. I miss my younger days.
It's like a hidden gem of a game and I feel sort of happy that many of the mainstream folks don't know about it, It almost feels like an esoteric piece of art out there.
I would love to see the magikarp patterns, partly because it would be funny to see it in the top traded pokemon on HOME
That game still feels like a fever dream that I can't tell if it happened or if we were all living in a simulation at the same time.
I remember I was so happy when getting rewards on special event, until this one event that it's either I get a reward or Pidgeotto will get it. My jaw drop to the floor when Pidgeotto catch my Magikarp.

Yeah! "Can you just give me another Skelly or something!? Seriously, I have over 15 Golds, I don't need more!" - Me when I played this game.
i had 9 shinies after my first run and became the magichamp but none of the cool blue or gray ones

Why do all mobile Pokémon games just have the universal ability of dying?

YES THE FUNNI FISH GAME
FUNNI FISH GAME 🐠
This game was the “oh right this exist” on the road trip and then proceed to grind it out for hours
I started replaying this recently, cool to see a whole video on it
I did 100% in this game, and I still play it to this day, I want to get all the friendship items and decorations, everything in F2P
Fun fact: you can also find shiny luvdisc and corsola, I've found both hehe
Space fighter magikarp
fun fact: if you evolve a shiny magikarp the gyrados will be shiny as well

Still got this on my phone. I truly wish they would incorporate the shiny variants into the mainline games. Those violet ones are 👌🏻
I really hope we'll have another chance to see again the many magikarp patterns, they really made this game fun
I can't decide what is a bigger time waster that I loved! 😂 This or ZenKoi! Same thing, same time period.

Wish there was a way to see all the gens. However, other than they randomly appear swimming in the background of our comically large pond... that might be connected to the sea.
Show me my 140+ babies dammit 😂
I wish there were some connectivity of these games for the core series games: like, you'd gain a shiny magikarp if you reached certain threshold
great video you summarised the game really well
This game was way better than it was meant to be.
I was going into this video expecting an essay on Magikarp Jump and its message on mortality
Dude seeing the Duel screenshots gave me flashbacks, I miss that game
You also made me re-download magikarp jump lol

I still actively play this game between classes and named a Magikarp after each word of the whooper song and I think it's funny
I played the hell out of the both Magikarp jump and pokemon duel
I still play jump today, and I really miss duel..I was pretty good and had a jacked team (lunala, Mimikyu, haxsorus, groudon, darkrai,& shiny metagross) I still have a screenshot of a match where I managed simultaneously block both of my opponents entry points and knock out their pokemon on the board
I remembered this game existed a few weeks ago and redownload it, I almost cried when Voltorb blew up my Magikarp
I actually found an old iPad and saw this game and the nostalgia rolled through…
I would have loved to have seen the entire pattern dex filled out.
This game was fun! I forgot why I stopped playing but it was such a wholesome game. I loved all the different types of Magikarp. It was kind of nice to see one of the most useless pokemon get some love.
Edit: Really glad the game is still up the title mislead me a bit
0:20 i beg someone tells me rhis gane nane shown here i remember playing it and having such overpowered Pokémon years ago
I remember playing this, I would play all night just to raise one Magikarp, also tried to download survive mola mola as well as reinstalling magikarp jump to see the differences but the app isn't available since it was made for older devices, ah well, I'll have fun training up Magikarp again
I fucking loved this silly little game. While the GO craze was everywhere, I actually found myself spending way more time playing Magikarp Jump.
I remember playing when it was launched. I cried the first time my magikarp was kidnapped by a pidgeot, I remember I didn't touch the game for one week over the trauma.

I really enjoyed this (and Duel) back during High School
I remember my Shiny Magikarp getting blown up
It came out while I was at London MCM comicon and well, adored the theming. Would probably be willing to spend money for a little idle like this, if it didn't have microtransactions.
Reminded me of the mini game in Stadium
I still have it on my phone but it was initially region blocked... maybe it still is
Dude, I remember having a golden magikarp that got swiped by a bird while I was training it. Needless to say, I couldn't keep playing after that.
Magikarp is the perfect pokemon. That's WHY.
I remember playing this in mid 2017 I was stuck at a bad job and hated it but this game kept me busy and happy during my breaks
I used to intentionally fall into traps to kill magikarps so i can discover new patterns,until i found out you can retire after a training 7 times
1:32 hell yeah baby 😂 I played that more than the main game
Lickytongue and Ratata mobile game when? 😂
i liked the support pokemon cheering for u and i rlly liked magikarp jumps art style too ):
It had a good run. Played for a bit in the past. Wish it had more a gameplay.
NGL this game sounds interesting from the way you described it. I'm gonna go download it and give it a try
I slowly chipped away at this game over 4 years and I have a lot of good memories of it
I remember this game from my early years in high school! I 100% the entire game and when I saw it being referenced in the anime, it took me back
I found a bug in the game that lets you get an infinite amount of gems a long time ago, finished the game in just over a week, and didn't even bother looking for the end game magikarp colours
I forgot about it for years until my friend was playing it a month ago
I still play this game :) I used to randomly lose my save, so i'd just restart and continue on
