Core Gameplay
Players control a character who can chomp enemies and obstacles. Watermelons scattered throughout levels restore one heart of health. Spikes and other hazardous objects cause instant death upon contact. Mouse aiming system enables precise shooting mechanics.
Controls
Double-click green flag for optimal start. WASD keys control movement. Mouse aiming and shooting provides precision targeting. Spacebar performs chomp attack. M key silences music, N key restores audio. Type "Skip" at any time during gameplay to bypass the current level. Fullscreen mode recommended but optional.
Health System
Starting health represented by hearts. Collect watermelons to restore one heart each. Environmental hazards like spikes cause instant death, requiring careful platforming. Hidden bonus: typing "love" during gameplay restores maximum health (one-time use only).
Speedrun Features
Integrated timer tracks completion times automatically displayed at level end. Creator's personal best speedrun: 45.2 seconds. Community encouraged to share their times in comments.
