Play Instructions:

 Dodger supports many variations on 3 styles of input. I highly recommend you go into the options section and choose a movement option

• Touch Input: Touch and hold either the left and right sides of the screen to move. The direction of movement is related to the side of the screen that is touched. Ship fires automatically when enemy is in range.
• Touch Input with Static Movement Button: Two arrows appear at the bottom of the screen, these are used for movement instead of tapping and holding sides of screen. Ship fires automatically when enemy is in range.
• Gyro Input: Tilt your phone in the direction that you want the ship to move. Tap on the screen to fire.
• Swipe Input: drag your finger across the screen and the ship will move to where your finger is relative to the X-axis. Ship fires automatically when enemy is in range.
• Swipe Input with Static Movement Button: Slider appears on the bottom left corner of the screen, drag on the slider to move the ship.
• Static Fire Button: Places a button at the bottom right corner of the screen, tap and hold on this to fire.

Press the play button on the main menu to play to game. The goal is to shoot as many ships as possible while keeping yourself alive. Health is displayed on the top left; a pause button is displayed on the top right.

The pause button allows you to pause the game, you can either return to the main menu or continue play.
