This game is meant for the PC and is a flash based game. The mechanics of the game are very simple and easy to learn. The player has the ability to move up and down on the screen as he walks forward towards the end of the level. The player can control the speed at which Beary, the avatar, moves by moving the mouse ahead of Beary, for increased speed, or close to Beary, for lessened speed. The last level, the boss fight, allows the player to move about the screen freely to better avoid the enemy’s attacks.
The enemies include regular yellow cats, flying Beelzenefs, giant balls of yarn, blue cats rolling on giant balls of yarn, and the main boss. The player cannot attack the cats and simply has to avoid being hit by them as the player collects the voodoo dolls of his friends. The voodoo dolls sit in certain areas of the three levels, waiting for the player to walk over to them and pick them up. The enemies try to trick Beary into getting hit before he can get to the doll.
Healing is done by picking up needle and thread that lies on the ground in certain areas of the levels. Damage done to Beary is seen by looking at Beary himself. In the image to the right, you can see that Beary has been damaged and is walking towards the needle and thread to heal himself, though the Beelzenef tries to hit him as he gets closer to the item.
A score would be kept throughout the game and extra hidden room and secrets lay about that only people who have beaten the game would be able to unlock. An online score board would be kept to bring about a feeling of competition for players. These would be reasons for the player to pick the game up again once he has already beaten it.
