About the Game

After being kidnapped from his beautiful home, Kao must find his way back to Australia. Armed with comedy-sized boxing gloves, Kao hops, skips, and triple jums his way across magnificently colored landscapes. Legs the size of a professional bodybuilders aren't the only means of locomotion for this furry bundle of fury. Use hang gliders, motorboats, snowboards, and even a space scooter.

  • 5 worlds with more than 45 levels!
  • Many vehicles to ride - snowboard, space scooter, hang glider, alligator, and more!
  • Tons of enemies: pig with a lollipop club, a sailor who would love nothing more than to swab the deck with Kao, an angry Eskimo, a happy Aborigine, and a shark hungry for a kangaroo sandwich and more!
  • Incredible graphics!
  • Three difficulty levels!
  • Bonus & Power-Ups to collect, such as energy, coins, power gloves, checkpoints, freeze, speed-up!
  • Awesome music & sound effects within each level!
