Eyes is a multi-directional shooter arcade game that was developed by Digitrex Techstar (also known as just "Techstar") for the Rock-Ola Manufacturing Corporation, in 1982; as with Jump Bug, it runs on Namco's Galaxian hardware (a Zilog Z80 microprocessor running at 3.072 MHz), but it uses a Namco PSG for sound. The player must use a 4-way joystick and a single button, to take control of a red hat-wearing eye through eight unique mazes and shoot (rather than eat, like Namco's signature character and his wife would have) all the bowtie-like items while getting pursued by four identical-looking CPU-controlled eyes (which are blue, red, and yellow) - and, if your eye shoots a CPU-controlled eye, it will disappear (for the rest of the current round). But if a CPU-controlled eye shoots yours it will lose a life.
