In 1978, Earth was invaded by a monochromatic race of aliens from the planet Potaito.

Unfortunately, during the fight Dave’s spaceship was destroyed.

Instructions:

Guide Dave around 15 levels gathering bits he can use to build a new ship, so he may return home.

Default keys:- n: left, m: right, space: jump. c: pause, x: toggle music.

All five keys can be redefined from the title screen by pressing C.
