Game description:

Released by Ceilick in 2009, this DOS action-platformer is an ambitious fan-made sequel that continues the classic series. Built on the original engine, it brings back the familiar pogo-jumping and exploration-heavy gameplay, challenging you to navigate a hazardous new desert world.

How to play

Explore each stage to find keys, gather items, and reach the exit while avoiding local hazards and enemies. The game uses the original MS-DOS keyboard controls: use the arrow keys to move, Ctrl to jump, Alt to use your pogo stick, and Space to fire your stunner. Press ‘Right Alt’ and ‘Enter’ to toggle fullscreen mode.

Tips

Master the pogo stick earlyโ€”it allows you to reach hidden ledges and cross otherwise impossible gaps, but it can bounce you into danger if you are not careful with your momentum. Conserve your stunner ammo for enemies that cannot be easily jumped over or safely bypassed.
