rabbit s: "Dott", "Jiffy", "Fizz", and "Mijji", trying to hop onto each other'shead s to squish each other and score a point, while sendinggibs flying everywhere. The rabbits are controlled by players on the same computer, using the keyboard, mouse, and/orjoystick .Although the players' scores are tracked, the game continues indefinitely until it is ended by the players.
