Arena

You are a spinning baton in a stone-walled pit lit by torches, facing six foes that drift and bounce off the walls. The baton never stops: the stick turns it up, down, left or right, and it rebounds from the walls by itself. Press the button to throw a shot the way the baton is heading, or aim it with the stick; one shot flies at a time. Touch a live foe and you lose a life, and the whole wave comes back. Clear all six for the next level: new foe shapes, a faster game, and each foe worth the level number in points. Three lives.

Controls: Controller 1 (or 2): the stick turns the baton; the button (either) throws a shot, aimed with the stick.
