Then there is the Spider, which is similar to the ball but instead of switching positions up and down it uses teleportation. There is a cube, which once used allows the player to jump a specific height, there is a robot which would allow a player to control the size of the jump, a ship that lets you move up and down freely, a ball which changes a players position from bottom to top and vice versa, and a UFO which is basically a combination of a cube and a ship.
Moreover, there are certain in game-boosts, or vehicles that the player may use to their advantage.
While the icon will move forward automatically, the only control the player will have over it is to make it jump, and while this sounds very simple and boring it actually isn’t since the player must time their jumps accordingly in order to dodge the obstacles properly, the obstacles also begin to appear more frequently once the game progresses. The players are in control of a square shaped icon, and using touch controls, a mouse and keyboard, or even a controller. Although the game has had many sequels since its initial release, the layout of all the games is technically the same.
