Handy Harvy is an arcade action game that draws inspiration from titles such as ''Fix-It-Felix Jr'', ''Donkey Kong'' and ''Wrecking Crew'', but takes the action all the way to the next level.

''Handy Harvy'' is an arcade-style action game which draws inspiration from titles such as ''Donkey Kong'' and ''Wrecking Crew'', boasting simple gameplay with an increasing difficulty level and emphasis on scoring. Harvy's objective is to climb his way up each stage's building, repairing its damaged windows while dodging enemies and projectiles, and eventually reach the rooftop before the timer runs out to complete the stage. To assist in avoiding oncoming threats, Harvey has the ability to hang off the building's various balconies.
  
The gameplay is simple; climb your way up the building while repairing damaged windows and dodging the kettle bells and bombs thrown down at you. You must reach the rooftop before time runs out to proceed to the next stage. As you progress further and further, you'll have to start avoiding kites as well.
+
At certain times, a beer power-up will appear. Collecting it will temporarily increase Harvy's speed, grant him invincibility, and double the points gained from fixing broken windows.  
  
To help you out during the game, a beer will randomly appear. If you drink it, you'll get double score when fixing windows, you'll move faster, AND you're temporarily invincible! You can also hang off of the balconies to avoid bomb explosions or kites.
