[edit] Gameplay

The aim of the game is to paint all of the blue tiles purple by jumping up and down to reach each "layer" of tiles. Each level consists of a variety of obstacles to make the game more challenging as well as moving platforms, teleporters and other collectables that may be useful.

[edit] Game Types

Game Type Description
Standard Game Play from the starting tutorials at level 1 all the way up to level 50. This mode is only available in single player mode.
Time Attack Race against the clock to paint all the tiles on the map as fast as possible and earn medals - either gold, silver or bronze. This mode is only available in single player mode.
Co-op 2 Players can work together to paint all the blocks on the map purple. If either player is killed, both players have to start again. This mode is only available in multiplayer unrated games.
Paint Off 2 players compete off to paint as much as the map as possible in their own colour - either purple or blue. In this mode, you can only pick your own colour of paint and any paint you pick up is immediately replaced. Also note that you cannot paint the blocks that the paint pots are on. When the time limit is reached, the player with the most blocks of their colour is victorious. This mode is only available in multiplayer games.

Image:Deathblock.png Trap Danger: this block will kill you!

[edit] Collectables

Image Name Level Description
Image:Paint Bucket.png Paint Pot All Contains enough paint for five tiles; comes in blue or purple.
Image:Coin.png Coin 2, 6 This is worth 100 points, the equivalent to painting 10 blocks.
Image:Dynamite Vertigo.png Dynamite 7 Lets you destroy blocks around you; use it to save paint.
Image:1up.png 1-Up 8, 14, 19, 21, 31, 42, 50 Pick this up to gain an extra life!
Image:Jetpack.png Jetpack 4 Lets you jump higher than normal. Each jetpack has enough fuel for one use. You can use it by completing two spacebar presses really fast.
Image:Savestar.png Save Star 7, 50 Saves the level so that, if you die, you'll start from where you touched it, with all the tiles and paint the same as they were when it was touched. This can be unhelpful, however, when you have messed up the level before you collected the star.
Image:Compass.png Compass  ? Shows the entire level to aid navigation. By jumping, the view will disable. In multiplayer Co-op (see above), both players will see the level, and if one player jumps, it will disable for both players.
