How to Play The Ooze
Quick start
Move the central head carefully through the overhead maze: a hit to the head is fatal, while damage to surrounding slime reduces mass. Stretch with A around corners and onto switches; use B for a ranged glob only when the lost mass is worthwhile. Absorb dropped ooze, avoid drains and fire, and search for DNA pieces.
Controls
D-pad: Move and aim. A: Extend the body in a close-range punch that can reach switches or items. B: Spit a green glob at range, consuming body mass. C: No standard function. Start: Pause. Protect the central head and replenish mass from enemies.
