Gameplay

Each of the nine game levels has a predetermined number of "pests". The player must smash all of the pests with his mallet in order to advance to the next level. In the final level, Ronnie's moonbase, the player must also locate a keycard to access the room in which Ronnie waits.

gollark: I don't actually have a car, but it seems like with the increasing amount of computers in them and requirements for mobile connectivity and such in them, they're moving away from this.
gollark: Generally, I think my things should do what I want and not enforce artificial lockouts on things, randomly break unrepairably, report data back to whoever, run unauditable proprietary software, or do weird stuff in the background.
