About Gadget Twins

Gadget Twins is a side scrolling action game where players control the characters Bop and Bump. Their mission is to recover a stolen gem from a villain named Thump, who took it from the Gadget King.

The core action involves navigating six distinct stages, which include both aerial and underwater environments. Movement is not restricted to a single direction, as the characters can fly freely across the screen. Combat is handled with a spring glove, allowing punches to be aimed in four cardinal directions to defeat opponents.

An in game economy is supported by coins, which are collected from defeated foes and from chests found in the levels. These funds can be used to buy upgrades at a shop. The design also incorporates timed bonus stages focused on opening chests.
