"K-Power" rated the Commodore 64 version of "Jumpman" 7 points out of 10. The magazine stated that the game "has very good—not great—graphics, color, and sound. But because it's so enjoyable to play, it will be a long time before it's put away." Stating that "the care that goes into its products is obvious in Jumpman", "The Commodore 64 Home Companion" wrote that "it's really 30 games in one, with seemingly endless variants on the simple jumping theme to keep you interested".
