___________________

This is a mouse control challenge. Can you hit and dodge while controlling two balls at the same time?

For the people saying the game is too easy. My high-score: 384725 (screenshot)

Theme

___________________

The theme is control of the elements "fire", "ice", "lightning".

Lightning: you are so fast, the maxiball can blink anywhere, saving you from death or catching the next powerup.

Fire: the miniball gets add-ons that increase the hitbox. Can be good to clear boxes, but can also destroy powerups.

Ice: Freeze the boxes before they get out of screen. Can also be a lifesaver, lasts 3 seconds.

How to win

___________________

Right click: Move Maxiball to grab powerups (combo points)

Left click: Move Miniball to grab boxes (hit points)

How to lose

___________________

If the Maxiball gets hit by a box, you lose powerup and combo points multiplier.

If a powerup gets hit by the Miniball, you lose powerup and hit points multiplier.

Ideas

___________________

I wanted to have a lightning bolt between the two balls.

I wanted to have a fire trail behind the miniball.

I wanted to have a slow force field around the maxiball.

I would also add control of light / darkness, and possibly gravity effects.

If you like the concept, follow me on twitter @VictorRENE_net, and I will make full version of the game at http://logiqub.com. Thanks for playing.
