A charming little 2D platformer that's equal parts level-based and exploration-driven, as you explore various planets across a star system to re-acquire parts of your wrecked ship. You also get expansions to your jumping prowess, allowing you to revisit planets to discover new areas. You have to complete an entire level for newly acquired items to be saved, with no warping between checkpoints or anything, but it's plenty charming. A pity it's never seen a rerelease since the platform's closure.
This playthrough zooms straight for the objectives and essential upgrades, and is by no means a 100% run.

This video visits the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 5th planets.
