Each level contains various powerups and enemies.
Reception

The floppy disk version was also generally rated higher than the CD32 version.

It's an original, enjoyable and challenging platform romp" and gave it a score of 86%.[2] Amiga Power called it a "simple", "old-fashioned", and "cute" two-player platform arcade game and gave it a score of 90%.[3] In contrast, the Swedish technology magazine Datormagazin gave it a 2/5.[4]
