BurgerTime/How to play

Controls

 * Joystick: Use the joystick to direct Peter Pepper in four directions. Push left or right to make Peter run in either direction, provided a platform is available for him to run on.  Push up or down while standing on, or in front of, a ladder to climb up or down.
 * Pepper: Press the pepper button to throw a sprinkle of pepper in whichever direction Peter is currenly facing, as long as Peter still has a supply of pepper left to use. If an enemy is hit with pepper, it becomes temporarily frozen and harmless.  The pepper will only appear directly in front of Peter, it won't fly forward any appreciable distance, so make sure that an enemy is right next to Peter when you use it, or it will go to waste.
 * 1-2 Players: Press either button to start a 1 or 2 player game.

Chef Peter Pepper
The master chef, Peter Pepper, greatest hamburger flipper that ever lived, is in for the challenge of his life. He must complete the assembly of massive over-sized hamburgers while outwitting various pieces of food that are descending on him. But Peter is not completely defenseless. He can make use of his award winning pepper mix to send the food in to sneezing fits that temporarily take them out of play. But the pepper is in short supply, and while Peter can earn a few refills, he still needs to use it as sparingly as possible. He can also use the very layers of the hameburger themselves to attack the evil food by dropping them on top of the enemies, or even letting a burger layer drop with an enemy standing on top of it. The added weight of the enemy will send the layer crashing down not one, not two, but three complete layers, bringing Peter a lot closer to his goal. But don't stand still for long, the rest of the enemies are always on the move.

Hot Dog
The Hot Dogs are typically the most numerous enemy in each stage. They attempt to reach Peter by taking the quickest route possible, but they seem to enjoy climbing ladders so much, that they have a tendency to use one even when it would take them away from Peter instead of towards him. Peter can use this to his advantage by climbing a few steps off of the ground, and luring the Hot Dogs to climb up parallel ladders, and drop back down to the ground once they are on their way. Hot Dogs can't turn around and reverse their direction, so you can actually walk behind them for quite a while. They are worth 100 points when killed.

Fried Egg
The Fried Egg is another dreaded foe of Peter's. Everything that is true for Hot Dogs is true for the Fried Eggs, their behavior is one and the same. Fried Eggs are worth 300 points when killed, and there is usually only one egg on the screen at one time.

Pickle
The Pickles make a late entrance to the game, starting on stage 3. Just like the Fried Egg, the Pickle's behavior is identical to the Hot Dogs. They have an odd way of moving about the stage, flipping around as they walk. They are worth 200 points whenever you kill one.
