===Levels of Play and Strategy Hints===
Superfly allows you to advance to more challenging levels of play and score higher points. Follow the strategy hints below to outsmart the attackers.
-----
'''Advancing to New Levels'''
Each time a screen is cleared of all the worms and spiders, Superfly is transported to a more challenging level of play. Eventually, even the most skillful player enters into a level of play where the alien bugs overtake the quickest of flies.
'''
Scoring Points'''
As Superfly attacks enemy insects successfully, the computer keeps track of the points and displays a running total in your scoring box on the screen. You receive 100 points for dissolving a blue worm with the bug shooter, 500 points for dissolving a purple spider, and 200 points for destroying a red spider.
'''Strategy Hints'''
Here are some game play hints to help you achieve a super high score with Superfly.
* Maneuver Superfly to shoot purple' 'egg-laying'' spiders.
* Use the short spurt shooting range as much as possible until you become an advanced player and can do fancy long-distance shooting.
* Use the lethal exterminator spray wisely. Remember, you gain no points for using it, but you can save Superfly.
* Never crash Superfly into an egg.
* Never trust a worm! They turn on you when you least expect it.
* Use eggs as barricades-hide near them and do some fancy shooting at nearby spiders. For example, Superfly can be moved near an egg to ambush attacking spiders from such a vantage point.
