Pongo

You guide a character through the islands of Flubber using the Pongo, a device that can be used either as a pogo stick or as a gun.

Traversal centers on bouncing between platforms, with jumps and landings forming the main platforming challenge as you make your way through more than 45 levels.

Switch between movement and combat to deal with enemies, while exploring islands, avoiding traps, solving puzzles, and facing bosses.

Positive comments highlight the unusual pogo-stick-and-gun concept, with some players also enjoying the nostalgic visual style, music, or the game as a brief casual diversion. Other reviews find the jumping and controls frustrating, so reactions to the central mechanic are mixed.
