It is a simple rising PlatformGame in the vein of stuff like ''Icy Tower'', ''Sonic Jump'' and ''Doodle Jump'': a girl must bounce on top of various creatures until she reaches the sky-high goal of three stages and eventually rescues her lost cat who floated away on a balloon. The A button makes her flap her arms to fly for a limited time and the B button makes her dash up to three times in any direction. The player must bounce and stomp enemies to recharge the two abilities and look out for clock items that add to the time limit.

!!This game features the following tropes:
* AstralFinale: The girl goes into space to save her cat.
* BrutalBonusLevel: The fourth stage, Dream.
* ExcusePlot: OH[[VideoGame/LyleInCubeSector NO]]! TOBUTOBU'S KITTY HAS BEEN FLOATENED AND NOW SHE MUST JOURNEY THROUGH THE WONKED OUT AIRS OF THE SKYSECTOR TO RETRIEVE HER MEOWMEOW COMPANION!
* FreewareGames: The rom and the source files are available to the public.
* GameplayGrading: To earn the best grade, you must both clear the levels quickly and stomp as many enemies as you can.
* GoombaStomp: Landing on an enemy restores the boost meter and stomping on one restores a fraction of the flight meter.
* GratuitousJapanese: "Tobu" is japanese for "jump", so the title translates [[BlatantLies to]] ''Hoppity Flappity Girl's Sky-High Adventure''.
* LevelGoal: A portal lies at the end of every level except the third, where the cat is rescued.
* NoAntagonist: Other than gravity and the time limit.
* NoNameGiven: The heroine is unnamed.
* VideoGameDashing: The girl can dash up to three times in a row, in any direction.
