In this version there are four types of combos:
-normal combo: kill goombas without touching the groud, another player or trampoline,
-multikill: kill more than 1 goomba in one jump,
-jumpkill: kill goomba at higher height,
-multijumpkill: kill more than 1 goomba that don't touching the ground.

Points from combos:
-jumpkill: bonus points + jumpkill,
-multikill: bonus points + multikill * 10,
-multijumpkill: bonus points + multijumpkill * 100.

coins = (killed goombas - time) * highest combo + bonus

Public Opinion
Overall Rating: 6.0
  • 5Fairly addictive. Fall speed and 'invisible-corner-of-your-character-collisions' sometimes mean the end of you. 2-player mode is fun because you probably end up killing eachother.
  • 7Controls in version 0.85 are a bit weird (gravity is too slow, mainly), but it's a fun arcade-style game.
