About this game
Catch the Scouting Spirit sends a scout after the NSF badges scattered by Dr Mayhem. Its English instructions describe 25 levels across different environments. Collecting a badge can change the cave around you: both badges and stones fall when their support disappears, and they can sometimes slide diagonally.
Move with the arrow keys and push stones horizontally by walking into them. A falling stone or badge can kill the scout, so inspect what is overhead before removing support. The same falling objects can also strike the roaming aliens.
Slime spreads at irregular intervals, adding pressure alongside each level's time limit. An alien that meets slime explodes into badges. The included readme identifies version 2.1, made by Johan Peitz for the NSF Here & Now campaign. Its rules reward planning a route through the cave before rushing toward the nearest badge.
