Robby has caught something; probably one of the cold or flu viruses that are prevalent in the winter months. Caught in what feels like a fever dream, he scrambles around collecting paracetamol to help contain the virus, reduces his temperature and make him feel better.

Is it a dream? His house didn't look like this earlier? Where did these death robots come from? And those blood red spikes surely must be decorative, right?

Robby will go from room to room, collecting all the paracetamol he sees; all the while avoiding robots, spikes, and awkward social situations. (I might have made that last one up!) When all the pills are collected, the door will open and Robby can leave. One of these doors must lead out of this nightmare, right?

Robby can jump, but Robby can only jump high or long. He can't jump long and high. To do a long jump (to jump from one platform to another) press JUMP and a DIRECTION and Robby will do a fast, long jump in that direction.

To do a HIGH jump, press JUMP and do not press any DIRECTION.

MAGENTA platforms cannot be jumped through. Blue platforms can be jumped through.

When all the pills are collected, the door will start flashing and sound it's siren. Touching the door will either lead to another room, or complete the game. (Currently 16 screens are available; more may be added in the future).
