Synopsis

In Blobbers, the player controls a mobile laser unit trying to defend against Blobbers, fearsome, giant, amoeba-like creatures that will devour anything they come across. The mobile laser unit moves to ground to the sides of the screen area. The Blobbers will also move along the same sides, and since the laser gun can only fire forward, the moving laser unit must be on the opposite side of the screen to hit the Blobbers.

A Blobber is born as a small, harmless yellow blob, growing into a larger, more purple mass, to a larger, white one until it reaches its red adult form. Only when it is red it can harm the moving laser unit, if they are any other color they will only stick to the moving laser unit until it moves and breaks free from the Blobber. As time passes, an adult Blobber will multiply, releasing a new small yellow spot which will eventually grow towards another adult Blobber. When Blobbers are struck, they are reduced to the previous stage of development (red to white, then purple, then yellow, then deceased).

In the middle of the screen, moving blocks called Magic Transporters move up and down randomly. They are called magic transporters because they can be used to transport the moving laser unit from one side of the screen to the other, if the moving laser unit moves on one of them while they touch the top or bottom of the screen. Blobbers will also be transported by them. Additionally, they are impenetrable by the laser gun, meaning the player will only be able to hit a Blobber when there are no Magic Carriers in the path of the laser.

Blobbers will become faster every 90 seconds until they reach the speed of the mobile laser unit. The player only has one life and does not continue.
