The single-player, side-scrolling action game takes you through various levels, each with a circus theme, fighting various enemies and bosses until you finally defeat the ringmaster and save your sister.
You start out in the game with little life, and few weapons, but you can collect various icons to increase how many direct hits you can take, keys to open doors, along with various circus items to shot as projectives.
Many of the levels can be avoided all together by just walking backwards and back through the curtain from where you start. This will take you right to that level's boss battle.
