“a double-barreled appeal to nostalgia”
4/5 –

“pixel perfect (circa 1989), and the off-colour monochrome is spot on”
7/10 –

“the visuals are delightful, and serve as a nice homage to the classic handheld games of yesteryear”

About This Game

Jack was nimble,
Jack was quick,
Jack whipped every candlestick...

Leap and dash across spooky hilltops, gothic cityscapes, dank dungeons and more! Whip candles to multiply your score, and use your environment to slow down and stay in control of the action; but watch out for obstacles that block your path!

With a score system based on player accuracy and distance traveled, timing and skill are key to achieving a position atop the leaderboard. Are you nimble enough?

High speed side-scrolling action
Authentic retro Game Boy era visuals
Accessible single input control scheme - just jump and whip!
8 characters to choose from
6 endless, increasingly difficult levels to master
Thumping chip tune soundtrack
