Fly Snatcher

Being a spider, it is your wont to scour the bushes for juicy flies. These are thoughtfully (if randomly) provided by our friendly Vic. A ravenous weasel pursues you with rather greater powers of locomotion than is at your disposal: recalling your tuition in ergonomics you mop up the flies using a tactical route to avoid interception. Success leads to another helping of files power-driven into position by uncompromising sonics. It's even worth being caught, as eventually you will be as the pace hots up: you can watch the weasel chomping away at your own body!

I should like to see an expanded screen version, also a more sophisticated variant for the C64. There is obviously room for the player to develop expertise and enhanced graphics would be beneficial.
