The game uses single-screen, level-based stages viewed from the side. Players jump, move left and right, and blow bubbles to trap enemies. Popped enemies may drop items or bonus fruit, and bubbles can also be used as temporary platforms to reach higher areas. Clearing all enemies advances to the next stage, and maintaining a fast pace can unlock special routes, bonus stages, and the true ending in later loops.
