The object of the game is to accumulate as many points as possible by destroying katerpillars, mushrooms and spiders.
Whenever a katerpillar segment is hit, it turns into a mushroom.
If a body segment is hit, the katerpillar splits into two with each half going in opposite directions. Each time a katerpillar is completely destroyed, a new one appears at the top of the screen.
It takes four hits to completely destroy a mushroom, and at the end of a turn, all partially destroyed mushrooms are returned to whole mushrooms.
At random intervals during the game, spiders will fall down from the top of the screen and others will also jump across the screen from one side to the other.
If the player's laser base touches any character except a mushroom, the base is destroyed.
This program uses the right joystick only. The joystick will move your laser cannon left, right, up or down, and the fire button fires your laser cannon. The fire button is also used to start the game.
