What Boogie Woogi Jungle is

Boogie Woogi Jungle is an arcade game developed by Ample Software and released in 1983. It is available on MSX only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Boogie Woogi Jungle is an action game, where your character must collect a number of objects scattered around each screen before the timer runs out. Most of the objects are on ledges, requiring climbing up ladders and across rope bridges. Other characters are also running around the screen, and must be avoided to prevent losing a life. Graphically and game-play wise, it is very similar to Lode Runner, except that instead of digging holes to temporarily trap your pursuers, you can fire either horizontally or vertically to stun them.
