Gridlee — About this game
The preserved Gridlee prototype places its character on a receding grid beneath bouncing enemies and coloured balls. Catching the balls earns points, while the enemies must be shot as they pass overhead. Their shadows show where to line up the attack. Enemy landings charge dangerous squares, and Igor leaves sticky patches that slow movement. Clearing the enemies advances the level, so delaying the last one can leave progressively less safe ground.
