In the first section of the main menu the player is able to choose among firing arms, cold weapons, explosives, objects, liquids, foods, sports inventory, machines, natural phenomena etc. He can also enter a mini-game. The amount of virtual money earned by player depends on the strength of the elements they choose, their effectiveness and the way they use them. Virtual money could be used for buying other items. When hitting Buddy too hard or for an extensive period of time, he gets knocked down for a couple of seconds. Mini-games also contribute to earning virtual currency (Buddy Bucks) and receiving XP. The second section of the main menu allows you to change the setting. The profile section records various awards and achievements
It also includes the statistics. Clothes are totally adjustable (numerous details and outfits are available). The clothes can be generated randomly with the Shop Assistant function.
