Insect Therapy
A game by Oriol Gómez

Do you hate insects? Yes... who doesn't?

+Introduction

You wake up one day, stretch your arms... And you feel a fly in your hand. You find your room swarmed with flies, bees, wasps and other various insects! Disgusted, you grab your shoe (not before shaking off the fly that was inside) and begin splatting away at those pests. But be careful, if they get too close they will sting you and that's bad!

+starting up

When you first start the game you will see the main menu, surely you are already familiar with it from my other games aren't you? Unless this is your first game you play from me of course!
Use the up and down arrow keys, and enter to select an option. There is no learn sounds option this time as the sounds are quite self explanatory.

+playing the game

Playing the game is easy. You have 5 positions (easy mode has 3) from which insects might come from. You start at the center. Use the right and left arrow keys to change your position. You need to match the position of the clicking sound you hear when you move to where the insect is. You'll get the hang of it quickly I'm sure!
When you've matched the position, press enter to smack! that pest away and make it disappear. If you still  hear something from that same position, it means there was another insect as well in that same place and you should press enter again to splat it away!

But that's not all. When you hear a bleeping clonking sound, it means that a bonus item has appeared. I guess the learn sounds option wasn't that bad of an idea after all?
Now, getting these bonuses is slightly trickier as it requires you to memorize some numbers. You start at bonus number 1, which means you must press 1 to get it. Now, if you press it in time before it disappears (you'll know by the wooshing sound if it does) you'll get a  killer. A killer is a new revolutionary insect spray that gets rid of all the pests on the screen. Press space to use it.
Whether you fail or miss, you'll need to press the next number to get the next bonus and this counter goes up to 5. So for example, if you get bonus number 1, and you miss number 2, you'll need to press 3 when you hear the bonus sound. If you get 4 and 5, you'll need to press number 1 when the next bonus comes up. Sound familiar?

Every few insects your level will increase (press l to find out which level you are on). This makes insects fly faster, appear faster, and bonus items disappear in a shorter time. Come on, I'm sure you can reach a higher level than me.

As with most of my other games, this game has no predefined end. It will end when one of the insect pests touches you. Now, go and beat your friends on the online scoreboard!

+Scoring, how it works

Scoring in this game is pretty straightforward. Each insect you kill gives you 20 points + your current level + the distance between you and the bug, so if you kill them faster you get more points!
If you miss however, you get taken away 5 points per level. So level 10 would take away 50 points every time you fail, so make sure you don't fail.

+Sending your score

When your game finishes, a new send score option will pop up in the main menu. Are you better than your friends? We will see!
