About this game
Santaman is a fixed-screen platform shooter set in a mutant-occupied factory. Clear every mutant from a floor to move to the next one. The version 1.01 instructions describe ten levels and two different weapon states that are essential to understand.
The green activator capsule makes the bazooka usable and lets its shots freeze mutants temporarily. A red capsule changes it into the Super Bazooka, which can kill them but no longer freezes them. Several shots may be needed, so a frozen enemy and a defeated enemy are not the same thing.
F1 starts, the cursor keys move Santaman and Left Ctrl fires an activated weapon. Space moves platforms, while Escape exits. Presents appear when you cross certain places; collecting all of them earns an extra life after completing the floor. Watch the scoreboard's message box, since Santaman sometimes gives useful information there.

Quick tips
Collect the green activator before expecting the bazooka to fire.
The red upgrade kills instead of freezing; keep firing until a mutant is defeated.
