Bubbles (prototype version)

Arcade 1982 Williams Misc.
In Bubbles you control a cartoon soap bubble inside a large sink. The object of the game is clean out the sink. You can safely scrub away ants, grease, and crumbs all the time. But sponges, roaches, brushes, and razor blades are deadly to a small bubble. Don't worry too much though, because your bubble grows in size as it swallows up the dirt in the sink. When it gets big enough it will be able to hit brushes and sponges (but still not razors).

Tips sur Bubbles (prototype version)

* Keep moving... You won't attract dirt if you just stand there. Also, Roaches are like heat-seeking missiles... they won't aimlessly wander because they WANT you.

* Go around the circumference/perimeter off the sink first, since they are the easiest to collect. Then work your way inwards.

* Dirt and crumbs will slowly head for thee drain so you could spin around the drain, collecting them as they come.

* If the drain is flashing RED, back off! A Giant Ant/Roach is coming your way! Seek and capture the Cleaning Lady's broom (if there is one) to counter this threat.

* Do not try to out-run Roaches, because they are actually faster than your poor, slow-poke Bubble. Instead, out-maneuver them. Go in circles around them and pick up materials in the process. Once you have a smile, bid the ugly duckling farewell and head for the drain before you get bitten!

* If there is a low supply of materials abroad and you're not even close to getting a smile on your face... don't get the materials because it would speed your death up. Instead, use the remaining time to wait for the green light and go in! It might take a while. Hell, maybe the light will never come...

* DON'T BE SELFISH! You might want to try to collect more materials when you have a big, big smile on your face... it's not worth it. Take the safe road and go into the drain before someone kicks your head in.

* Try to collect the items around the drain, you get 2x points that way.

* Once you have a smile on your face, you can make the brushes/sponges bounce off without getting blown up. Try to aim them to the drain to add injury to the insilt!

* Not really a tip... but the number of the level you are currently playing is on the top left corner. Once it goes past 99, it comes back to 01.
