Everything is ... minimal :)\r\n\r\nYou are a big strong guy who likes food (don't we all?). This guy just attracts bugs, or maybe the food he has scattered all over does. Anyway, these bugs are just nasty, and if they can manage it, they will steal your food and run off with it. The nerve of those bugs!  Luckily there exists scattered about the playing field, food boxes. These food boxes will secure your food from all insec- no, actually ... not every bug.Grab all the food and put it in the food boxes before the bugs take it. If you can get all the food in the boxes, you win the level, or if you kill all the bugs you win. Also you can win if < 75% of the food is taken, but you really shouldn't let those nasty bugs get ANY food.\r\n\r\n\r\nMove with arrow keys\r\nActivate your bug sprayer with 'Z' to spray those horrible creatures!\r\nIf you run into any trouble, press 'R' to restart a level.\r\n\r\nSpiders are smart and crafty and can steal food that is NOT in a food box.\r\nStingers are territorial. When they sting you, you can't use your sprayer for a time \r\nRoaches are just nasty. To kill them you must step on them.\r\n\r\n * Roaches and Stingers can steal food from food boxes\r\n * When you are carrying food, you cannot use your sprayer\r\n * In addition to disabling your sprayer for a time, when stingers sting you, they also make you drop your food briefly.","title":"Buggers!"}
