*A horrible sound behaviour under certain physics situations has been removed by limiting how often boxes will play their drop sounds.*
Oh no! Our planet has far too many squares and cubes on it. We are running out of space for all these objects which have an area that can be described by the length of any given side to the correct power. Your job is to get rid of them. We are firing rockets at the junkyard world to help blow up the garbage, but our military aren't very good shots and always seem to miss the planet's surface.
There are 5 kinds of boxes, which drop faster as the game progresses
Just Boxes: They're just boxes.
TNT: Explodes when near another explosion.
2-part Explosives: If parts one and two touch they will explode.
Decay: If these are destroyed they are worth no points. If they stay on your planet for 15 seconds you will get many points.
Points are gained in powers by blowing up boxes. Squares give you their length squared, cubes their length cubed and decay objects their length to the fourth power because they also have a lifespan in the time dimension (unless they blow up, in which case you cause a nuclear disaster and get no points).
You lose if an object lands outside of the circle!
360/XBONE controller and keyboard are supported. Both are good but I prefer controller.
*360/XBONE controls*
start: pause and play
left stick: vertical and horizontal rotation
right stick: vertical and roll rotation
B: revert the sphere to the starting position
*Keyboard controls*
escape: pause and play
WASD: vertical and horizontal rotation
direction keys: vertical and roll rotation
Space: revert the sphere to the starting position
Alt+F4 to quit (at least in windows, for whatever reason the quit button wasn't working.
These are add-on modes and make the game a bit more difficult.
Crazy rockets means that the rockets can cross anywhere over the planet's surface.
Crazy boxes means that the boxes will come from any side of the planet.
