About the Game

Boby’s girlfriend has been abducted by a witch. Your goal is to rescue her by completing a series of fast-paced levels.

Run and jump through levels filled with obstacles, enemies, and hazards that require precise timing and movement.

The game includes 3 worlds and 18 levels with increasingly rage-inducing difficulty.

Can you beat it in under 5 minutes?

A message from the developer

This was one of the first games I ever made, originally developed back in the mid '90s when I was around 10 years old (which probably makes it a true retro game by now).

It was later included as a hidden game in Fjong, but it was never released on Steam as a standalone title. I thought it would be fun to finally release it as its own game.

Most of the game has been left untouched, with all of its original flaws and jankiness still intact—for memory’s sake.

The only real additions are Steam achievements and two unlockables for completing the game fast enough: the Speed Cap and the Jump Cape.

The game is extremely short, free to play, and can be completed in one sitting (in under 5 minutes).
