Project Paradroid

The main goal of the game is to clear all 20 levels of droids, by either taking control of each one, or destroying them.  Gaining access to higher level droids allows you to inflict more damage (and sustain less).
Reports indicate that the droid crew of a galactic space freighter has turned against their masters. A droid Influence Device has been beamed aboard To help you regain control of the situation. Use the Influence Device To destroy the droids by shooting them, ramming them, Or temporarily taking control of a droids circuitry [transferring] to redirect its energy and armaments against its own kind. Your goal is to clear all droids from Each of the space freighters 20 decks. When you have completely cleared a deck of droids, the ships computer shuts down the deck lights And you are awarded bonus points.
The Influence Device, identified by the serial number 001, is a comparatively low-powered machine. Move the Influence Device around the space freighter by using the keys or joystick If your Influence Device is destroyed, the game is over - droids win, you lose.The Influence Device has low-powered laser that is activated by pressing the fire button while the Influence Device is moving. The lasers fire in the same direction that the Influence Device moves. In addition To firing your lasers, you can destroy weaker droids by ramming them repeatedly. However, you need To have transferred To a droid more powerful than the Influence Device Before ramming is effective [see the section entitled Transferring To a Droid]. Occasionally, you also may notice that the presence of your Influence Device among a group of droids causes the droids to attack Each other. In addition, the Influence Device, or any droid that you have transferred to [host droid], will
begin to run out of energy after a period of time. When the energy level is low, the Influence Device Or host droid will begin To flash. At this point, it is of the utmost importance To attempt To transfer To a new host droid. If you do Not, the Influence Device Or current host droid will burn out.
