Yes I found a few half finished projects but nothing that really explained this does this - to help me understand the physics of jumping or anything

I learn best from examples

well, jumping is really quite simple. Firstly, you need a collision system so that your player doesn't go through the floor. Then, you need a gravity system so your player goes down again. Then ,You just need to propell your player into the air and the other systems will do the rest.

Hope you understand this.

Part of solving the problem is actually noticing that the problem is there in the first place

I have a unfinished side scroller project. Its really messy and improperly coded and the jump has fake gravity.
It may help for an example. The demo is here:http://www.ajtaji.ath.cx/loststuperplumberbros.sfx.exe

Take a look at it. If you like it, I'll send the code to ya to learn from, as long as you don't give it to anyone else. I'm going to clean it up and finish it someday.
