What can I expect to see?

The aim is to get your Flibbidy Jib to the GOAL PLUNGER in order to push it in and stop the machine before the TIMER hits zero. You ascend the play area using the FALLING BLOCKS AND TOKENS. Remember that falling blocks and tokens can seriously squash you so be alert! If you are squashed then you are brought back into play from the top of the screen inside a RE-INCARNATION BLOCK. This drops you from the top of the screen into the column you got squashed and you will be shrunk for a short period of time as a penalty for being a worthless Jib. You can only jump up one block high at a time, although you are able to jump three blocks distance left or right. You can only push single loose blocks to help you make a stairway to the top. You are able to crack blocks open by KICKING and BUTT BREAKING and on your way up there a various power ups you can collect to increase you abilities and assist your way to the goal plunger or hinder your opponents trail there.

The PUZZLE BLOCKS are built into later levels of the Flibbidy Jibs. The levels become more puzzle orientated as you progress through the game. You'll see puzzle blocks in the levels blocking the level plunger and sometimes blocking each other. They have to be destroyed in what ever order required to open the plunger.


Goal plunger

Your aim for each level is the same, STOP THE MACHINE! To do so you must get to the plunger and push it in. The plungers will be located in different locations throughout he levels. Sometimes the plunger will be blocked by the coloured puzzle block, which means you have to free it first. 

Timer and stats pipes

The Timer appears at the top-middle of the screen. The Stats Pipe appears at the top of the screen and it displays your characters face, along with your score, your current weapon and quantity of the current weapon.

Falling blocks and tokens


You can find out about each and every one on the blocks and special items page.

Reincarnation block

When you are squashed you will be dropped in this block with your characters face on it, from the top of the screen in this block. You'll then pop out of it and will be shrunk for a short period of time as a penalty.

Kicking and butt breaking

Kicking blocks is done by standing next to one and pushing left or right and then simply press the KICK button. Kicking blocks makes them crack and destroys them. If the block is a special item them kicking it causes a token to pop out that when collected give you various different abilities. Butt Breaking blocks is done by standing on top of one and simply pressing the KICK button, this again destroys the block and releases a token if it is a special item. For information go to the controls page.
