The game is a side-scrolling platformer with frame-by-frame hand-drawn animation, a technique that took staff several years to produce. The protagonist, an old man named Goldman, uses a cane that can jump, hang, pull, flash, and block enemy attacks, with new abilities unlocked through upgrades that expand explorable areas.
