About this game

Bounder is an action game developed and published by Gremlin Graphics Software. Players control a tennis ball across courses made of suspended tiles, bouncing past walls and enemies while avoiding falls from the course.

Each player begins with seven lives. Power squares propel the ball forward and enable longer jumps, while mystery spaces may reveal extra lives, bonus jumps, or hazards that destroy or immobilize the ball.

Bonus Screens

Completing a course leads to a bonus screen filled with mystery spaces. Players can make 40 bounces by default, with additional bounces available through discoveries on the previous course. Clearing all mystery spaces awards 10,000 points and an extra life before play advances to the next course.
