You control the Buzz worker with the arrow keys and pick up and drop items with the space bar. You go into the background by pressing the up arrow key and down to go back to the foreground. If you press the left arrow key whilst hovering over the red barrel, it will move you above the back conveyor belt where the food is coming from. Food comes from the back conveyor belt then falls from a tube onto the front conveyor belt. Although you can't pick up the food from here yet, you can drop food onto the conveyor belt to return it to the queue of foods to be dropped onto the main belt leading to the Skeith's mouth. You will begin each level in the same spot where you ended the level before it, so it's a good idea to get into the habit of returning to the front conveyor belt straight away after dumping each food so that you know where you'll be at the beginning of the next level. The goal of this game is to pick up Red Peppers, Blue Jellies, and Green Cake Slices into the red square barrel, blue square barrel, and green square barrel in the background respectively. You have a quota of number of jellies to sort into the barrels and if you meet that, you'll reach the next level. If you let the Skeith at the end of the front conveyor belt eat them, you'll lose a life. Everything else on the belt are safe to let the Skeith eat and you should only focus on the red, blue, and green items. As the levels go on, the both the speed of the front conveyor belt and item quota will increase. Red Peppers are worth 3 points. Blue Jellies are worth 5 points. Green Cake Slices are worth 8 points. Since Red Peppers are worth the least amount of points, try to avoid dumping any red peppers if you can help it; instead focus on the blue jellies and green pies which give you more points. If a red one does appear on the bottom conveyor belt, pick it up and drop it back onto the upcoming foods belt at the back instead. It is recommended that in the first 2 or so levels since it gets harder to juggle the peppers back to the back conveyor belt. Personally for me it's a bit too hard to multitask if you have a million Red Peppers, so I just restarted the game over and over until I got a Green Cake Slice at the beginning and some Blue Jellies. It's fine to juggle the one or three Red Peppers in the first two levels, but after that, grab anything that is red, green, or blue and just put it in their barrels. If you press up to go into the background, know that you'll always appear over the Red barrel, so if you have Red Peppers on you, drop 'em. Blue, just go one right. Green, two right. If you master that, you'll be able to jump back onto the front conveyor belt to be ready to grab the next thing. Just remember that when you go back to the front conveyor belt, you'll pop up right next to the Skeith's mouth, which is useful if you want to grab something out of his jowls, but try to get close to the tube the food is coming out of so you can drop it in the barrels right away.
