01Gameplay
The player controls the titular character, which aims to destroy a supercomputer after going through.levels and defeating enemies. The player can punch and kick enemies with the two buttons, but holding them will cause the player to fire a projectile which can move across the entire screen to defeat enemies, at a cost of the player being rendered immobile and a gradual fall in hit points. Guns and bazookas can be picked up and used to shoot enemies.
