Putt-Putt and Pep's Dog On A Stick (1996, PC) - Longplay

You guide Pep on a pogo stick through a 3d maze, avoiding hazards like oil spills and traps. The dog collects bones, ice cream cones and candy to gain points. As the game progresses, trampolines appear, changing the path of Pep. The game was designed as a junior arcade for 3-8 years old.

Putt-Putt and Pep's Dog on a Stick is a computer arcade game developed by Humongous Entertainment in 1996. It is the only game in the Putt-Putt series where Putt-Putt does not change his color.

Plot
Putt-Putt goes with Pep to the recycling dump to deposit old bottles and cans. While Pep takes the recyclable trash inside the dump, he finds a pogo stick in good condition and starts bouncing on it. The two friends then go around the dump looking for good bones.

Gameplay
The game consists of 100 levels. In each level, the player must maneuver Pep to bounce from surface to surface to collect as many bones as possible then reach the checkers flag, before the time runs out. Pep can only jump between one tier and another in a straight diagonal direction. Powerup items can boost Pep's speed when picked up. When hopped on, a power pad will double Pep's jumping altitude capability temporarily. Critters (such as bears) will hinder Pep's progress.

The gameplay's style is reminiscent to Q-Bert

-- Video creator notes --
The original version of the game was played on Windows 11 using ScummVM. Recorded at 1280x960 and the original resolution was kept to make sure no scaling filtering is applied to retain the pixel art look. That's also why there are borders around the games' screen.
