Perseverance is the key in Little Leaps to make it home safe. A classic fast-paced action platformer that’s anything but complex, just survive, repair your rocket, and escape, only to fall down again. Jump, build, fly, repeat.

If you’re into fast-paced action platformers reminiscent of games from the early days of MSX, you’ve come to the right place. Veteran game programmer bitsofbas has entered the show with his latest title, Little Leaps.

In the 22nd century, it’s not unusual for rocket pilots to grab a space burger at a fly-in, only to run into trouble on the way home. That’s exactly what happened to Captain Neil, who ended up stranded on a mysterious planet with his rocket shattered into pieces. Now, it’s a race to find the parts, repair the ship, and escape this forsaken floating rock. But just when you think freedom is within reach, some nasty neighbors arrive to crash the party.

Clear the screen, hop into your rocket, and maybe take down a space boss or two on your way home.
