Abstract

The player will play as Black Death and go through levels where he must defeat all of the malevolent Candy Canes in order to move on to the next level. You are only allowed put down three gumball machines in any one room, as putting down any more would make the game unbelievably difficult. Each level gets harder and only through reflexes and cunning will you make it out alive! Though you are quick and seem to be very resilient to damage (as you have lived your whole life in shame and have a tough outer skin towards outside hostility), you are not invincible. The thought of your family gives you two extra lives to progress and find them. In some levels, there are special powerups such as the Clock Candy that will help the player slow down enemies to defeat them.

Brief Description of how to play the Game:

Move from room to room, using gumball machines aimed at yourself to progress, defeating enemies and eventually making it to the final boss for a showdown.

Win vs. Loss

You win individual rooms by defeating all the enemies in each room and progressing to the next. You win the overall game by making to the end and defeating King Candy. Losing would come at any point in the game in which you have 0 lives and 0 health.

Your main goal is to get from the first level all the way to the enemy boss.
