What exactly is Skippy Bus you ask?
Skippy Bus is a bus hijacked by a hero kangaroo named Billy. Billy gives the Skippy Bus amazing power to be able to skip through the countryside and avoid obstacles in its path. Thats of course if you the player are up to it!
Your job as the player is to help Billy navigate Skippy Bus across the countryside, whilst collecting all the passengers along the way and getting them safely to the bus terminal that awaits them at the end of each level. As with all good stories, there is a mysterious twist mid-way through the game to look forward to!
How do you navigate the Skippy Bus?
To successfully navigate Skippy Bus along its journey all you need to do is tap the screen to skip/jump over obstacles in its path whilst remaining on the right course. And remember, your mission is to also collect all the passengers along the way and get them safely to their destination before returning Skippy Bus back to base. You cannot leave any passengers behind!
Navigation Tip: Hold your tap of the screen down for a little longer to get a slightly longer skip/jump. A shorter faster tap of your screen will mean a shorter faster Skippy Bus action. It will take a little while to get use to, as it is a heavy bus after all. Stay patient and remember that everyone else has to get use to how the Skippy Bus drives also.
Player tools at your disposal?
2 x LIVES & 2 x CHECKPOINTS
LIVES
You have a total of 2 x LIVES to use during the whole game (not per level). When you use one of your LIVES the game restarts mid-level (once only) at the last point you failed at.

CHECKPOINTS
You have a total of 2 x CHECKPOINTS to use during the whole game (not per level). When you use one of your CHECKPOINTS during a level, a new restart point will be created at the last point you failed at. This will be your new restart point every time you restart play on this level.

How many Levels does Skippy Bus have?
Skippy Bus has a total of 7 short Levels. The shortest of these levels takes only 44 seconds to complete if you avoid the obstacles and keep Skippy Bus on the right course. The longest level takes 1 minute and 21 seconds to finish if you avoid the obstacles and keep Skippy Bus on the right course.
If you fail during a level (for example, by hitting an obstacle) play will restart each time at the beginning of that level unless you use one of your available LIVES or CHECKPOINTS
