You control a flying ''''E'''' that may shoot ''''commas'''' by pressing the shoot button (the '''space bar''')
==Description==
You can defend yourself from enemy fire by pressing the jump button (the '''A''' key). Doing this causes the letter E to grow in size, absorbing enemy bullets (''''dots'''') without taking damage. You can only do this if you have enough ''''exclamation marks'''' in the bottom right corner of the screen, as defending yourself costs one ''''!''''. Additional ''''!s'''' can be earned by colliding with them when they appear on the playing field.
