Psycho Hopper is a vibrant side-scrolling action game set on the surreal planetoid called “Dreams” in the Belt of Unreality. You bounce through fantasy castle environments on a gas-filled bounce-bubble equipped with a blunderbuss, hunting four skull parts per level. Enemies include bats and dwarves, and contacting them depletes your gas gauge—if it empties, you lose one of your three lives. Each level has a strict time limit; if the timer runs out, the bubble explodes. With frenetic movement and platforming precision needed to navigate hazards and collect all treasure, the game delivers a challenging and atmospheric arcade experience. Developed by M.C. Lothlorien and published on CPC under the Mastertronic Plus label, it loops indefinitely across its four distinct levels, with enhanced music and intro on machines with 128 KB RAM
