CanoeClobber


Crazy Carl loves to fish but he has no fishing pole or net. So, he just runs the river, clobbering his prey. However, Carl has to be careful, too... his canoe gets damaged when he hits the river banks, logs, leaves, or any trash that floats down the river. In two minutes, how many points can you earn for Crazy Carl? Just use the arrow buttons on your keyboard to move Carl's canoe. Give it a try! (Please be patient while the graphics load. And, you must have a JDK1.1 compliant browser to run this applet.)

Instructions: How do you score? Clobbering the items shown below will earn or cost you the following points:

 Red Fish=4  Gold Fish=3
 Boundary=-1  Bottle=-1  Plant=-2  Tire=-3  Log=-4


Usage: Download the canoeclobberO_1_2.zip and unzip it within your HTML directory. A sample page is included. If you use the applet on your site, be sure to put a link to the author's page.
