This game is inspired by Bugaboo The Flea / La Pulga and on each screen you have to collect all the gold and then escape through the portal that will appear when the last gold have been collected. All the other creatures have to be avoided, you will meet a fly, a worm, a flea like yourself, and a static boss in the middle of the game.

You control the flea by moving left/right, and depending on how long time you hold down the left/right key you will make a jump. It is possible to move normally to the sides by just one character by pressing left/right fast, so move the flea in position for making the big jumps to the other platforms, and then hold down the keys for long jumps.

Once you get used to that this is actually a pretty good and relaxing game that is easy to get into. It is not as complicated to calculate the control of the flea as in games like Scorched Earth where there is wind and that kind of stuff.

The game is pretty forgiving if you make a wrong jump, only two of the levels has water you may not get into, else you just have to be sure not to jump into the other creatures.

The controls in this game are simple and works well , it is a fine colorful game, and the animations and movements of the sprites are very good considering the game is participant in the Bytemaniacos Basic Competition.

There is 6 levels in the standard game, when completing these it opens up for 4 more levels, so if you start the game again it will be with 4 new levels. These levels is a tribute to Tetris, and is off course tougher than the first ones. When making your way through the Tetris levels you will finally get to your beloved!

A different game and instead of the scrolling screen in Bugaboo The Flea / La Pulga the one-screen / static screen system here is much easier to navigate in. This is definitely a game worth checking out!

The game was made by Carmelo Muñoz in 2020.
