The game is a classic arcade game for children and not only for them. In the game, our task is to swing the ball through dozens of levels of varying difficulty. We have a free hand in choosing the order of the levels from the beginning. The ball is prone to sharp edges and falling off the platforms while solving the levels, the goal in each level is to collect food and jump to an open exit, which opens only after collecting all the food. There are several types of platforms, from basic brown ones, to blue water ones that slide insidiously, to green ones that disintegrate on contact. Some walls only let you go in one direction, lever mechanisms shoot you like a puck from a hockey stick, and the combination of all traps creates a fair amount of puzzles in the game environment. The difficulty is average, but sometimes you have to torture your brain.

Game review

Classic arcade. in the game you jump with a tiny ball, prone to sharp edges or moving cymbals (if it's a different tool, correct me). Your task is to collect as many points (mostly food) and enroll in the Hall of Fame. After collecting everything that can be collected, a secret exit opens, after which the level is completed. There are not many Levels, but even so it goes - average. Body plus. At some levels, I lost unnecessarily many lives. This is not just about jumping, but also the effective timing of jumping. Gradually, new types of walls and reflective surfaces appear. The classic one is brown, the blue one is watery and glides, so you move on smoothly according to Newton's laws of motion. The green plate will disappear under your feet over time (?), You are a ball, so it just disappears. Some walls will only let you go in one direction, either verically or horizontally. So there are many variations. And so that no one will stone me, they are not variations, but combinations.
The difficulty is not great, it can even be said that it is small. However, in order to complete the individual levels, it is sometimes necessary to involve the gray cortex. The combination of a floor that kicks you somewhere and water that won't stop you is quite deadly if there is a bayonet at the end. Wittily.

The controls are really primitive, the gameplay is good. Only the game could contain more difficult levels. If you like arcade game Bumpy will definitely not disappoint you.
