This is just a lazy name cash-grab.

It's a fairly basic score-focused platformer from the era.

I wouldn't call it bad as it's actually a fairly decent time if you're into this simple kind of experience. You dodge enemies and pick up bits for points until you pick up enough bits to progress to the next level to do it all again but harder.

It works and it's fine, but not really the kind of thing I'd replay over and over personally.

A multi-tiered platformer where your goal is just to jump and collect powerups flying overhead while avoiding enemies. As you go up in the levels, things get faster and tanks which fire shells at you replace some enemies, ratcheting up the difficulty a lot very quickly.

This is just a simple score-attacking game and it's definitely above average for the 2600.

3 - Decent: An acceptable, playable game with notable appeal
