Overview
Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh World, is Klungo's very first video game, developed completely on his own. The goal of the game is for Klungo to (as expected from the title) save the world (presumably from Gruntilda, the game's antagonist). This, however, is taken quite literally, as in-game, Klungo is shown to be actually holding the Earth over his head to protect it. The gameplay is very simplistic and could be considered the most literal definition of a platformer; Klungo has no abilities other than his jump. Each level scrolls automatically, moving Klungo along with it and players must time their jumps to get over pits, avoid baddies, and avoid being crushed between the screen and walls in order to make it to a flagpole at the end of each level. The game's in-game graphics are simplistic 8-bit sprites, and the game's audio resembles chiptune style. The game screen is bordered by exaggerated anime-esque artwork of Klungo, slender with muscles and holding two laser guns, apparently rescuing a blonde damsel (it could be Tooty) in distress from Gruntilda and a gang of skeletons, under spaceships blowing up the Earth. Klungo's game also is not programmed optimally; frequently, the game will randomly crash and Klungo will have to restart it(Arrrrrrgh! Game crash again, Klungo sssure he have that one fixed! Wait, Klungo needsss to resset...).When players complete a level in Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh World, they are rewarded in the main Nuts & Bolts game with Musical Notes.
Levels
Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh World is made up of five levels, each with a different theme. Levels of Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh World are unlocked as players collect certain numbers of Jiggies in Nuts & Bolts. In addition, in order to play a level, the level before it must be completed.
- Level 1: Teh Holesss: The first level introduces the concept of pits, which Klungo must jump over many of to reach the end.
- Level 2: Teh Baddiesss: The second level introduces the concept of baddies. The baddies in Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh World are red spiky balls with eyes, who do nothing more than look side to side. However, as they are spiky, one hit is instant death for Klungo. The baddies generally cluster together and stack on top of each other, so precision is required to reach the end.
- Level 3: Teh Ssstairsss: The third level introduces varied topography. Klungo must jump to the top of each "stair" properly to get to the end, otherwise Klungo will be crushed in between the screen and a wall.
- Level 4: Teh Previousss Bitsss: The fourth level takes all the previous level themes and sticks them into one long level, arguably the hardest of the bunch. Precision and mastery of jumping each of the previous obstacles is needed to pass this level.
- Level 5: Teh Bosss: The fifth and final level is a boss level. Players are given exactly one jump for this level and pitted against Gruntilda, who shoots a fireball at Klungo after a random amount of time after the level begins. To beat the boss, the player must jump at just the right time so that the fireball misses Klungo, which somehow kills Grunty.
