is pretty standard stuff. \u00a0Press one button to jump over obstacles and another button to roll under them.\u00a0 Keep in mind that when you press the roll button, you\u2019ll continue to roll unless you hit the jump button again.\u00a0 Collect fruit for points, and certain fruit can give you powers when you press the R2 button.\u00a0 These include destroying all dangerous obstacles in the way, or pulling fruit toward you like a magnet.\u00a0 When you hit an obstacle, the game is over.\u00a0 Each time you play, the stage is randomly generated.<\/p>\n<p>The game has a few minor problems.\u00a0 Hit detection feels a little off, especially when trying to jump over obstacles.\u00a0 An upgrade system or some other progression indicator would\u2019ve been nice, too.\u00a0 I\u2019ve certainly played better continuous runners out there, but at least this one is still pretty cute.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/kong_screen\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
