Sonic Jump Anniversary (Android) - Demo
A downloadable mod for Android
INTRODUCTION
Back in 2005, Sonic Jump was released via the "Sonic Cafe" mobile service in Japan. Then, in 2007, a remake was released internationally via the "SEGA Mobile" service (also known as Sonic Jump 2 in a few regions). And in 2011, an Android port was released via the "Puyo Puyo! Sega" mobile service only in Japan.
And in 2025...
Sonic Jump Anniversary is a game mod project in collaboration with GdGohan to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Sonic Jump!
PRESENTATION
Sonic Jump Anniversary is a mod of the 2007 Sonic Jump's Android port that gives quality of life improvements to the game and extra features such as Modern Android Compatibility, Soundtrack Select Menu, Language Settings and many more surprises!
This mod is a followup to the Sonic Jump Classic mods, which include improvements such as Better Controls and Improved Audio Quality.
However, while Sonic Jump Anniversary is still in development, a demo is now available since the Sonic Jump's birthday (February 21st). Making the demo a perfect celebration to the Sonic Jump legacy!
GREAT NEWS: The first level crash has been fixed! Meaning you can now play this game on Android 8 and above!
This fix is the most important update of them all, as many players were disappointed about the game not working properly on their modern devices.
After the loading screen, you will be granted with a Soundtrack Select menu, instead of the original Enable Sound menu. The Soundtrack Select menu is a tribute to other versions of Sonic Jump made by Hardlight to celebrate the legacy of Sonic Jump. This menu is also available in the OPTIONS menu.
Here are the different soundtracks that the game provides:
CLASSIC (OGG): This is the initial soundtrack of the game. The music tracks has been turned into .ogg files to improve the audio quality, as some music tracks didn't sound good.
PRO: This is the soundtrack from the 2012 Sonic Jump (also known as Sonic Jump Pro). Not only it features music remixes of the original Sonic Jump, but it also features additional music tracks for each level of the game (except for Cosmic Zone and Bonus Zone, which only uses the Cosmic Zone theme from Sonic Jump Fever).
FEVER: This is the soundtrack from Sonic Jump Fever. This soundtrack features fast-paced music tracks, great for clearing levels at high-speed!
The next feature is the Multi-Language Feature.
First, a Language Select Option is available in the OPTIONS menu. Additionally, thanks to the Auto-Language Detection, the game automatically sets the language based on your device language when booting the game for the first time!
The available languages are English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Traditional Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese and Simplified Chinese.
A new challenger has arrived. It's Shadow the Hedgehog!
Shadow the Hedgehog is an additional playable character alongside Sonic, but he has different physics than Sonic. He can jump higher, but his double jump ability is smaller and falls faster when using it.
Shadow the Hedgehog is meant for expert players with faster reaction times. It's more difficult to defeat bosses with him, but with great reflexes, you can clear levels faster than with Sonic.
You can select Shadow in the brand-new CHARACTER SELECT menu.
Here are additional features to mention:
- IMPROVED GAME CONTROLS: The "Super Jump" input is no longer limited to the icon. Thus, you can now touch anywhere on the screen while playing to perform a double jump (only when the Virtual Pad option is deactivated).
- SOUND TEST: The OPTIONS menu also feature a SOUND TEST where you can test the sound effects and music tracks of each soundtrack.
More features will be available in the full version of Sonic Jump Anniversary. If you have watched a few videos of the beta versions on YouTube, you may know which surprises the game will provide!
Because Sonic Jump Anniversary is only available as a demo, the Sonic Jump Classic mods are still available to download. These mods has been updated in order to make them playable on Android 8 and above!
However, the Sonic Jump Classic mods are a limited edition. Meaning that they won't be accessible when the full version of Sonic Jump Anniversary will be released.

Nice to see the Simplified Chinese you updated
Although some places may no look perfect
The game name can be changed to '索尼克飞越巅峰'(Because there is a Chinese version of this game translated as '世嘉索尼克飞越巅峰' Remove the word '世嘉(SEGA)', the rest is a more reasonable translation)
Two characters in the game can translate their names like this:
Sonic: 索尼克
Shadow: 夏特
If there will be other roles in the future,I will recommend some more official translations
Amy: 艾咪/艾米
Tails: 塔尔斯
Knuckles: 纳克鲁斯
cream: 克里姆
And also,If possible, would you add the diagonal jump like that Pleasant Goat game into here?
PS: The intro animation of that slot machine is exclusive to China Mobile's Game service,，although this service has been suspended for a long time
About Classic Music ,You can try using SF2 file remix those midis
but Java/J2me Edition and Android Edition have different midis though not so big
And why this icon can't full showing in my desktop? where is the stageselect menu?
There is actually a Chinese version, but it has been lost
Hello there !
Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see your comment ^^'
Well, thank you for the info. I'll try to search for it at one point.
By the way, do you know why the game isn't working when playing on Android 8+ ?
UPDATE:
I actually tried to search the Chinese version of the game. I did found a few sites where you can find the game, but there is no download link to the game. Instead, there is only a link to the store app.
I don't know why it can't run on higher versions of Android
Perhaps this software is too outdated
But a Pleasant Goat game based on this production
This game is called''喜羊羊大跳跃'
This is the download link I used from a free netdisk
I don't know how to download from here

Oh ! This is interesting !
Looks like this game is using the same assets as Sonic Jump.
Come to think of it, this reminds me of Contra 4 Redux, which there is a bootleg version named Classic Rambo ^^'
Anyways, I'll take a look about this goat game soon.
Well... this is something that I'll take care of.
After modding another game, I guess I found the problem, but I'll take care about it soon.
At least this game is officialAt least this game is official
As early as Pleasant Goat，Before partnering with Disney, Sega was already a partner in China
Perhaps Chinese version of the game like this will be better than the original one?
I haven't found the Chinese version of Sonic Jump yet，So I dare not draw a conclusion
By the way, the JAVA version of this game has not been lost，So I think you can provide these versions, the entire Chinese version
Alright then. I'll do more research about the Chinese version of Sonic Jump.
In the meantime, I managed to play the Pleasant Goat game, and I have to say that this is not only an official game, but also better than Sonic Jump ^^'
In fact, I believe that this Pleasant Goat game feels like the true successor to Sonic Jump and what Sonic Jump 2 could have been ^^'
Also, this game actually works on my phone using Android 8. Meaning that there is a possible way to make this version of Sonic Jump running on modern hardware. But I have to figure out how to fix it.
By the way, I have a question : Do you think it's a good idea to make mods of that Pleasant Goat game ?
Game crashs on actual hardware can you fix it? Please?
Unfortunately, I can't do much about this issue :/
Which is why it's recommended to play this game using BlueStacks.
I wish I could fix this problem, but I need an Android programming expert to see where the crash comes from. If the crash will be fixed somehow, the game project will be fully updated as the "Definitive Version" of the game.
Ok, so I guess for now I'm gonna have to wait to get a pc or I can try a virtual android on my tablet and see if it works
I can probably help you out w your problem. Hmu if you want my help :)
Hello !
If you want to help me, I hope you understand Java/Smali programming and Android compatibility, because this crashing issue comes from the game's code.
Pretty much, yeah. I know how to write code in Java and know my way around Android Studio. Do you have the official source code of the game? Can't do much without that as I'm not fluent on reverse engineering
Alright !
Though I prefer we can discuss somewhere else to see our comments faster. Do you have a Telegram or Discord account ?
Hello !
I wonder if you are still around. It's been a while since we haven't contacted yet.
Hello ! Are you still around ?
I'd like to know if you are interested of improving on the Sonic Jump mods ?
