Q-Bird

A baby bluebird, too young to fly, hops from cube to cube on a slanted board of 7 x 6 cube tops. Each landing changes a top's colour one step toward the colour shown at the bottom, CHANGE TO, and turning every top to it clears the level. Hop off the edge and you fall. A cat stalks you, toads hop about at random, a hawk sweeps across one row, and a glass marble rolls down the slope. Hold the button as you push the stick for a flapping long jump across two cubes, safe from everything in mid-air. A worm appears now and then as a bonus that freezes the enemies for a while. Later levels need more colour steps or bring faster enemies. Five lives.

Controls: Use controller 1 or 2. The stick hops the bird; hold a side button with the stick for the long jump. On the title, up and down choose the level and a button starts.
