Yars' Revenge

Description:

The player controls an insect-like creature called a Yar who must nibble or shoot through a barrier in order to fire its Zorlon Cannon into the breach.
The objective is to destroy the evil Qotile, which exists on the other side of the barrier.
The Qotile can attack the Yar, even if the barrier is undamaged, by turning into the Swirl and shooting across the screen.
In early levels the player is warned before the Swirl is fired and can retreat to a safe distance to dodge the attack, and in later levels.
The Swirl turns into a guided missile after firing and will chase the Yar until it scrolls off either the top or the bottom of the screen.
The Yar can hide from a pursuing destroyer missile within a "neutral zone" in the middle of the screen, but the Yar cannot shoot while in the zone.
The Swirl can kill the Yar anywhere, even inside the neutral zone.
