Paratrooper

You have ten parachutists and one control: the signal that ejects each from the plane droning overhead. Three pads sit in the water among the sailboats, worth 25, 50 or 75 points, with the smallest paying most. Altitude, wind and the trooper's weight all change on each jump, so a heavy man in a light wind drops like a stone. Experienced mode shrinks the pads.

Controls: Fire or any keypad key drops the trooper.
