Strictly Limited Games, in partnership with 7Levels, is delighted to announce the pre-order start for exclusive and highly limited boxed editions of Jet Kave Adventure for Nintendo Switch. This exciting release of the 2019 platformer is scheduled to launch in autumn 2023 and eager collectors can pre-order their exclusive Limited Edition, starting on Sunday the 12th of February!
These editions will only be available at Strictly Limited Games and will be the only physical version of the game.
About Jet Kave Adventure:
Take on the role of Kave, a caveman, in this action platformer featuring an exotic stone age setting. Disclaimer: 7Levels and SLG make no claims of historical accuracy. While it is proven dinosaurs and cavemen did not exist at the same time, the same can’t be said for aliens.
Kave used to be chief of his tribe, but was cast out for failing to provide food. But when aliens threaten to erupt a volcano to jumpstart their crashed spaceship, destroying everything in its vicinity, he doesn’t hesitate to try putting a stop to them. Sounds crazy?
To help him on his quest, he can make use of the best of two worlds, primitive stone age tools and spaced-out sci-fi gadgets. What would a caveman be without his trusty club? Exactly. Bash away at dinosaurs, giant fireflies and other critters to your heart’s content. Can’t or don’t want to get close up and personal? No worries, Kave also carries the most advanced ranged weapon technology of his time: the rock. Show those pesky fire breathing lizards who’s boss. Finally, there’s the jetpack. This is what you are here for after all, isn’t it? Kave picked it up from the crashed alien spaceship, and it allows him unprecedented mobility for a caveman. Hover, fly and boost your way through varied, 2.5D environments ranging from jungles to caves, sandbanks and volcanos. All these tools, as well as your health, can be upgraded with shells at the shaman’s shop. This gives you an edge over your enemies.
Features:
- Crazy mix of distant past meets distant future. You heard of Cowboys vs. Aliens? Well, we have Cavemen vs. Aliens.
- Fast and fluid 2.5D platform gameplay
- Upgrade Kaves’ abilities between stages: Hover longer, take more hits, get a bigger club. It’s up to you.
- Colorful and vibrant Stone Age graphics
- Hidden collectibles and time trials with online leaderboards for additional replay value
- In-game trophies! Can you get them all?
- A caveman with a jetpack!

Infinite Beyond the Mind gets physical, powered by Strictly Limited Games. The Limited Editions for Nintendo Switch™ can only be found there.

With Portside Game Assembly, Gamecity Hamburg is welcoming studio heads and directors from successful indie game studios on a conference ship and other extraordinary locations in Hamburg on June 27. Benjamin Laulan, Co-Founder of Evil Empire, (Dead Cells, The Rogue Prince of Persia) will give a keynote on the Triple-i Initiative started by the French studio. At the Triple-i Showcase 2024, over 30 “iii games” were announced in 45 minutes, and 150,000 views were achieved on YouTube alone. Further speaker on board is Philomena Schwab, Founder of Stray Fawn Studio (Dungeon Clawler, The Wandering Village).

Portside Game Assembly is set to be a platform for decision makers and studio leads to exchange ideas, learn from each other, and face the challenges of the games industry through collaboration.
As the first announced talk of the conference, Benjamin Laulan (Co-Founder of Evil Empire) will present a keynote on the Triple-i Initiative and how to create your own announcement space and talk directly to your audience when you can’t really relate to other existing showcases. In addition, Philomena Schwab (Founder of Stray Fawn Studio & Publishing) will give a short talk about ways for game idea validation.
The program of the Portside Game Assembly will consist of keynotes, short talks, and roundtables.
