Super Bobby is a fun, simple platformer made by Tobias Hassenkloever, and it combines fresh, modern design with fond memories of the original Super Mario Bros. Here are some tips that'll help get you through the game with ease.
How do I defeat enemies in Super Bobby?
Use the old "jump-on-the-head" tactic! Simply leap in the air and land squarely on the enemy's head, and you'll easily bop them. Some enemies won't completely disappear, though. Snails, for instance, will simply pop back into their shells, then climb out again and continue crawling along.
Here's an important tip. When it comes to jumps. you'll want to make sure you land precisely on your enemy. If you land to the left or to the right, they might hit you instead, causing you to lose some of your precious health.
Certain enemies - such as dropping weights or snails with spiked shells - can't be pounced upon at all though. Avoid them completely!
How do I regain lost health in Super Bobby?
As you work your way through each stage, you'll see these yellow boxes that you can jump up into. Doing so will reward you with a prize, and the ones with exclamation marks typically contain more valuable prizes, including hearts that top up your health when you pick them up.
How do I get the pink astronaut in Super Bobby?
The pink astronaut is an ally that can shoot fireballs, as well as pounce on enemies if his fireballs can't quite reach. You can find pink astronaut icons hidden in the boxes marked with exclamation marks. Just bop them with your head and you'll see an icon with an eyeball in it. Pick it up and you'll automatically transform into the pink astronaut, gaining access to his fireballs. Just don't get hit by anything or you'll revert back to the normal Bobby.
What are coins used for in Super Bobby?
There's usually a decent collection of these in each level, and collecting them all increases your overall score. There aren't any online leaderboards to compete in, but you can always challenge a friend in local play.
What happens if I die in a stage in Super Bobby?
If for some reason you lose all your health or fall into a bottomless pit - a classic platforming staple - you can simply start the stage over again without any sort of penalty.
Do I need to pay for anything in Super Bobby?
The game is completely free-to-play, although you do need to progress through each of the levels sequentially in order to unlock them.
