      It's a terrible game, based on the reviews. Don't get
      it. But if you do get it, at least it's free.
 

I very briefly tried this a couple days ago.  It reminds me of an ancient rather poor PC game, I don't remember what, but it also reminds me a bit of Pitfall, only way worse.  I gave up after beating my head against a dog that survives 3 laser blasts by which time it gets across the screen and one-shots you.  Eventually I figured out I could jump over it with precision jumping and got to another area, where a robot wakes up and one shots you, again your laser not seeming to do anything to him, and both jumping, sliding and crouching his shot hits you.  I tried checking the other ways, but they were similarly apparently impossible. So 1 star, don't recommend.
