Gameplay-wise, the game was planned to feature 10 zones, 8 with 2 acts and 2 with 1 act. The original version was intended to contain levels named Peak Panic, Wood Works, Resort Run, Desert Dash, Cosmic Chasm, Golden Gate, Chaos Central, and an unnamed final level. Only a demo containing the first two zones from 2007 is currently playable.

Ensure your virtual control overlay is active before launching the game executable. For the best experience, connect a physical Bluetooth gamepad (such as an Xbox or PlayStation controller) to your phone. Most emulators automatically detect external controllers, allowing you to map inputs easily.
