Screenshots1 / 2

A side-scrolling action scene displays a player character in red and blue standing on a brown platform, with two identical red enemies nearby. Snow-capped mountains form a parallax background layer. A large golden structure with multiple cube blocks rises in the center-right, while smaller golden platforms and blocks scatter the lower terrain. Green grass forms the ground level. The HUD shows score 0602800, a green life bar, and ball count 053 in the upper-left corner with a black-bordered white band.
