Help the madbeetle find his way out of the underground cave system without falling victim to the many traps.

The caves where built and are protected by the purple crinoid creatures and they have befriended the flying mosquito. Don't get close to any of these as they kill on contact.

To protect their caves the purple crinoid's have set traps all over that only they know how to avoid. Use your skill and cunning to progress through the system and find the way out.

Object of the game
Control madbeetle through the maze of tunnels on his journey to escape.
On the way you have to aviod enemies and traps with the help of platforms, ladders, switches. The switches operate by touching them, these in turn can operate various devices from disabling traps to moving platforms.
You can also pickup bombs that have been scattered along the way but use them wisely as you can only use them on the level they are found in.

Game play

It has been a while since I last played a platform adventure game, and this one
initially appears to be easy, but you soon find out how difficult it can be.
On your journey there are bombs which you can pick up but also coloured bottles, once you have colected five bottles you are awarded an extra life. You can only have a maximum of five lives at any one time but it does not take much to start losing them.
An interesting feature in the game is if you get stuck on a level you can restart it without losing any lives, this can be a bonus when you run out of bombs.
