<p>Headup has announced that the “comically creepy” 3D platformer <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/pumpkin_jack"><strong>Pumpkin Jack</strong></a> will be getting spooky on a Switch near you from 23rd October.</p>
<p>The game, developed by Nicolas Meyssonnier, has you jumping, dodging and carving your way through enemies and puzzles in a battle of evil against good. You’ll come up against a variety of dangerous situations, rollercoaster-like minecarts, and more, and you can even use your trusty owl companion to unleash long-distance attacks. Here’s an official description:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Pumpkin Jack is a spooky scary 3D platformer in which you embody Jack, the Mythical Pumpkin Lord. Dive into an epic adventure through otherworldly landscapes and help the Evil annihilate the Good!<br /><br />Follow the will of the Devil himself and slay your nemesis in an epic quest that will take you on a journey in the Boredom Kingdom, a mythical realm shattered by the curse. You will meet friends along the way, from a haughty owl to a snarky crow!</p>
<p>Discover stunning atmospheres in a colorful yet spooky scary Kingdom. Travel through epic and dramatic settings, with each level having its own eerie atmosphere. Using a vibrant palette and high-quality lighting effects, Pumpkin Jack invents its own unique cartoon universe inspired by the classic PS2 graphic style, made with Unreal Engine 4.</p>

<p>The game is said to offer tight platforming sections, riddles to solve, and “a hair-raising array of gameplay mechanics” that total a playtime of 5-8 hours for one run. If you’re keen on giving it a go, make sure to keep an eye on the eShop later this month.</p>
