• Game Play
  • Levels
    • Levels are unlocked sequentially.
      • Only the first level is playable at the start of the game.
      • The very first level acts as a tutorial for the entire game.
      • Finish one level to unlock the next.
    • You can replay any of the levels you’ve already unlocked.
    • There are 10 levels in this game.
  • Basic rules
    • Move up the platforms.
      • Most of the platforms are too high up for either brother to reach via jumping. To reach the platforms, you must switch from one brother to another.
      • The brother that you switch away from will be frozen exactly where they stand, including midair.
      • You will, in effect, turn one of the brothers into a intermediate platform by switching mid-jump.
    • Collect all the stars.
    • Reach the end of the level.
      • Because you often need to make one of the brothers a platform, you cannot bring both to the end.
      • You only need one of the brothers to reach the exit marked somewhere in the level.
  • Tips
    • This game involves a lot of backtracking.
    • Each character acts as a temporary platform for the other.
      • Sometimes you have to slightly underjump one character so that the second character which jumps can land on the first.
      • If the characters are jumping directly up and have a fixed platform under them then you can keep repeatedly resetting the jump until the second character is high in the air and the lower character is stopped at the peak of its jump, so that the higher character can reach a higher level.
    • When you get toward the later levels sometimes you need to use the slide boxes in multiple different positions multiple times to make it through the levels.
      • The final level requires jumping a character off of the slide platform directly up & then freezing that character at the apex of its jump as a platform to jump the second character off of.
      • Note that the second character already needs to be in midair above the peak of the lower character’s jump so that it can fall onto it & then jump higher.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for players who like level escape games.
  • The game has no adult themed content.
