Bouncing Berty is an extremely fast-moving game in which you need to keep your wits about you at all times in order to get anywhere at all. You, Bouncing Berty, bounce happily around the screen on your page stick. The area which you must keep inside is made up of a pyramid of cubes and you must colour in the top surface of each cube by bouncing on it at least once. You bounce up and down in a diagonal direction only but beware of bouncing too far for Berty will quite happily bounce right off the edge of the pyramid to his death if you do not keep him under control.

That is not the only danger that can befall poor Berty in his mundane task of colouring in the pyramid, bouncing balls which home in on Berty's bounces are out to get him. Once Berty and his bouncing fees collide all is lost, or at least another life is.

To assist you in getting to the top of the pyramid, if the balls get in your way, there are two spinning coloured discs, one on either side of the pyramid. If you leap on to one of these discs (beware, it is not easy to do so without missing), it will take you directly to the top of the pyramid, from where you may bounce down away from the balls instead of towards them.

Good luck with this game because in my opinion you need it. It imposes a great challenge in that you deserve a gold medal if you can get past the first pyramid. I have no idea what comes after the first pyramid, I didn't get that far but I expect someone is clever enough to have far more success than I did. Anyhow, it wouldn't be any fun if it was too easy.
