How to defeat sea snake in Metal Mutant?
 

Lately I have played this flickscreen arcadeadventure in training mode and I have made it to the second level boss: a sea snake. No matter if I mutate into a dino, athlete or robot, I cannot shoot or punch the sea snake. In the meantime it gets real close and bites in my legs, draining lots of energy.
Has anyone made it past this creature and how?

Below is a pic of the screen with the sea snake on the left. The herosprite is not on the screen because I once again got killed by the creature.

Don't shoot at it or anything, jump on his back and you can take a ride to the other.
Dutch: Niet schieten, gewoon meeliften, je kunt m namelijk niet doden. Succes, het wordt nog vééél moeilijker.

Hey hey. My questions get replied - eventually. ;)
Thanks for your solution, I want to play this game again in the near future to grab some screenshots.

Screenshots are abundant online.
I am now at the End boss, and boy is it a good game

If anyone knows how to finish this game PLEASE post some pics.
The end boss displays certain symbols and you have to mimick it by changing form and perform a move e.g. radar, hack with the axe or use the dinosaur flamethrower.
The problem is I do not know which symbol is which move :blased

this game is indeed great, i played on the original version of a friend ages ago... alas i never went too far in the jungle.
the original box contained also an A3 poster by the UK great artist (a great comic artist and visionary painter) John Bolton, that i don't see in HOL, if someone has it, can he scan it and upload it?
