Comments and reviews
I played this game back in the day from a floppy diskette. I don't think I remember how to play each minigame, and you have to slow it WAY down for a modern machine. Don't overdo it... it should feel like a moderately well-paced classic arcade game... but not too slow... you'll know if you made it too slow.
The controls are A and Z for up and down and K and L for left and right, but it's not THAT simple. When you control the amoeba you'll see what I mean in that each button press changes the direction it is moving. It is not a straightforward joystick. You'll get it, but it's really ha to explain.
Spacebar often controls whatever special ability the creature has. The Amoeba can become immune to the white chasers for a short time. The tadpole jumps, handy to get over fish or reach for flies. The rodent drops poison. And... I forget the rest.. but maybe as I advance in this game I'll remember.
It's a simple little game, but quite challenging and very random. I played it hours upon hours as a kid. Good luck!
This website should add manuals or "how to control the game" sections. Really hard to figure that out sometimes.
