The Game
A title screen is shown, prompting any button to be pressed.
Once the game starts, the cow skeleton to the right shoots out steaks in different patterns, which damage Marzipan when touched. Marzipan must hair whip the steaks to make them disappear. Once enough steaks are hit, a part of the cow reappears on the skeleton. After this, the steaks speed up. This repeats for 4 phases. Once the full cow returns, and Marzipan goes to the center of the screen, this dialogue appears:
Thank you Marzi. You reversed the beef!
...
That will be all.
After this, the game resets.
