Jack Lumber is a video game developed by Owlchemy Labs.[2][3][4] The iOS version was the first game published by Sega's third-party publishing program Sega Alliance.[5][6]

In addition to mobile stores, the game is also available on Steam. This version was released independent of Sega because, according to Owlchemy Labs founder Alex Schwartz, "[W]orking with publishers has been a big experiment, and so far it hasn’t been financially successful for Owlchemy." There are also plans to release it on other platforms that "don’t involve a publisher."[7]
