Description
Controls:
Space Select Space + AWSD controls
Return Select Return + arrows controls
Either joystick fire Select joystick controls


Notes:
There is a small change in its physics compared to the original version: when you press the direction at the moment of the jump, it bounces back toward that direction, and if you keep pressing the horizontal direction all the way, it maintains the sideways velocity along the entire trajectory. This is also the case in the original version. However, if you release the lateral direction at any point of the flight path, the air resistance starts to slow down the pumpkin and it hits the ground sooner. With this behavior, you can somewhat control how far you jump.

Items:

Crown The sleeping witch is guarded by a spell, Bouncey must have the crown for protection.
Scissors Use this to cut off a lock of the Witch's hair.
Shield Bouncey must have the shield to walk past skeletons.
Chalice Avoid the "reverse controls" effect. Collecting this item is optional.
Axe Open doors.
Book Needed to cast the final spell.
