More about this game
Your goal is to collect 15 hearts dropped from the top of the dock to clear each of the 5 stages. Run and climb ladders to navigate the platforms while dodging bottles thrown by your rival. The difficulty increases as your rival moves faster and throws bottles more frequently in later levels. Grab spinach to become invincible for 4.5 seconds and punch your rival or his bottles for extra points. The game ends if you lose all 3 lives.
Tips
- Spinach spawns every 18 seconds and makes you invincible for 4.5 seconds. Use this brief window to safely clear out bottles and punch your rival.
- Punching your rival while powered up awards 500 points and temporarily removes him from the stage for 4.5 seconds, giving you a safe window to collect hearts.
- Hearts drop every 1.35 seconds from the top of the screen. Track their falling path and position yourself on lower platforms to catch them easily.
FAQ
- How many stages are there?
- There are 5 unique dock stages to clear, including Harbor Hoist, Slanted Pier, and High Dock. You must collect 15 hearts in each stage to progress, and completing all 5 stages wins the game.
- How do I defeat the rival?
- You cannot permanently defeat him. However, collecting a spinach power-up allows you to punch him, which awards 500 points and removes him from the screen for 4.5 seconds.
- What happens if a bottle hits me?
- If a bottle hits you while you are not powered up, you will lose one of your 3 lives. If you have the spinach power-up, you will destroy the bottle for 25 points.
