The player, as Chakan, starts in a central hub stage, from which he can select one of four elemental-based "planes" of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water, each with three levels. The player advances through each platforming level until completion or death, whereupon Chakan is returned to the hub to choose a new level on either the same or a different plane. The player has infinite lives, but will be returned to the hub if he is "killed". (wikipedia.org).
