 		Submarine Game
Controls
My daughter is 9 years old and cannot get past level 4 of the submarine game, if we had a game pad for our computer would she be able to use that to control the submarine? I don't want her to cheat to get to the end however, the reading and the logical thinking is why I let her get involved with this, now she is spending far too long trying to play a game and only getting frustrated??

Any suggestions?

Some tips: it doesn't matter which order you go through the rings, it might be easier to go past the last ring, and go right to left to hit the last ones. (Fig c.)

The other thing I did for the last level (the one with the plane at the bottom), I did a loop in the middle to line myself up better (Fig b.). If she can't make the two sharp turns to make the ring (Fig a.), she might be able to do a loop around to get to the bottom rings.
Code:
                                     /-\
 Fig a.                   Fig b.    /   \                  Fig c.
                                   /     \
