A notch above your average platform game, with plenty of original features, this is a right bargain. Read Review

Large cartoony and lovable sprites... The levels are rather large, and it provides a reasonable platforming challenge for those who like to leap from block to block.

A playable, enjoyable game that can get a little infuriating because of the questionable sprite detection. Read Review

You already know what this will be like. Nice big sprites and diddeley-doo musak. You can also steer while you're in the air, so that makes things much easier. Read Review

Introduction
Funny things these time tunnels: One minute you're chiselling a quick slab to the milkman for one extra dinoegg and a pint of milk and the next bam: big spirally squiggles, flashing neon lights. Before you know it, you end up slap bang in the middle of 20th Century New York. The people here wear the funniest loin cloths, when I told one guy, he didn't seem to take it quite right and got a bit angry. Honestly without my club for protection, I feel positively naked! I have found a place to camp on the by a tribe called zoo. There are lots of animals here, but they don't half choose to live in funny places. Some of them live in cages and wait for zoo tribesmen to come around and feed them! Tomorrow I'm going to show them a real good time! And I don't care what the zoo tribe say.
The Story So Far

He camps by the side of a zoo in New York and is horrified that the animals are not roaming wild and free. He decides he must rescue all the animals.
