After being kidnapped from his beautiful home, Kao must find his way back to Australia. Armed with comedy-sized boxing gloves, Kao hops, skips, and triple jums his way across magnificently colored landscapes.

- Three difficulty levels!
- Bonus & Power-Ups to collect, such as energy, coins, power gloves, checkpoints, freeze, speed-up!
