Flippy

Flippy is a 1-player arcade game for the TRS-80 CoCo.

The player controls a circus seal an the bottom of the screen, who moves laterally and tries to catch balls dropped from a conveyor belt at the top of the screen. Two creatures at the edges of the screen place balls on the conveyor belt, which randomly fall. As the seal catches progressively more balls, they balance on the tip of his nose until they reach the top of the screen. When the player catches 6 balls, they move to the next level. If the player misses a ball, they can still flip the ball back up in the air with their flippers to try to catch it again, but if it hits the ground the ball is lost. If the player misses too many balls, it's game over.
