====Weapons and bonuses==== The dragons' main weapon is their ability to blow bubbles. After being blown, they shoot forward for a short distance, then float upwards slowly. It is possible to jump on bubbles to reach otherwise inaccessible areas. An enemy hit by a forward-shooting (not floating) bubble will be trapped in it. The bubble can then be popped, killing the enemy and turning it into an item that can be collected for bonus points. If left floating, it will become angry and escape the bubble after a while. In some levels, there are special bubbles that appear by themselves: * Bubbles with letters that yield an [[extra life]] and the ability to skip the current level when one collects a complete set - all six letters spell 'EXTEND'. Extend bubbles appear when one has popped several enemies at the same time. They will only appear on levels which have holes in the top or bottom of the screen. * Water-filled bubbles that can be popped to release a stream of water that flows down and drowns enemies, turning them into 7000-point blue diamonds. * Bubbles containing lightning bolts that, when the bubble is popped, shoot sideways (even through walls) and kill any enemies they hit, turning them into 8000-point yellow diamonds. The lightning goes in the opposite of the direction that the dragon that popped it was facing. * Bubbles containing flames that, when the bubble is popped, drop downwards setting any surface they touch on fire for a short time, killing any monsters that touch the flame and turning them into 9000-point red diamonds. * A very rare red bubble with a pulsating yellow spark, which when popped awards 100,000 points and gives the player which popped it the ability to breathe fireballs for the six consecutive rounds. This bubble appears randomly with a 1/4096 chance [http://www.tjasink.com/games/bb/items2.html]. Power-ups include: * Red Shoes that enable faster walking and jumping. * A blue bubblegum which increases the travelling and forming speed of bubbles. * A purple bubblegum which increases the shooting range of bubbles. * A yellow bubblegum that increases the rate at which bubbles can be blown. * A yellow lamp which gives all three bubble-related bonuses. * A red cross which gives the player who takes it the ability to breathe flames until the end of the current round. * A yellow cross which causes several lighting bolts to cross the screen, killing any monster they hit, including bubbled ones. * A blue cross which kills all monsters by flooding the round with water. This takes some 3 or 4 seconds to complete though, and players are still vulnerable. * A red lamp which instantly kills all monsters, turning them into 9000-point red diamonds. * A purple bomb, which instantly kills all monsters, turning them into 10,000-point dark blue diamonds. You can't blow any bubbles after the explosion. * A red trophy, gives you all the basic power-ups. * A purple trophy, a smart bomb that kills all enemies and turns them into diamonds. * A blue trophy, gives you extra points when you run along the ground. * A blue umbrella, advance three rooms. * A yellow umbrella, advance five rooms. * A purple umbrella, advance seven rooms. * A diamond necklace, releases a ball that flies around the screen and turns enemies into diamonds. * A red ring, gives you 100 points for every bubble blown. * A silver ring, creates a stream of stars that kill all enemies. * A blue ring, gets you points while running around. * A purple ring, gives you 500 points every time you jump. * A book, smart bomb that kills all enemies and turns them into diamonds - "Throw the book at them!" * A glowing heart, enemies freeze and you can run into them. * A candy cane that gives large bonus fruits at the end of the round that are 10000 to 30000 points depending on the color of the candy cane. * A treasure chest, similar to candy canes except diamonds fall. * A clock/watch, stops level timer and changes screen color. * A bell, activates alarm that will warn the player that a secret weapon is about to appear. * A skull, turns the enemies fast and nasty. * A potion, fills the screen with various items, collect all of these for a 100,000 point bonus
