First level is kinda badly designed, basically you have to create combination of 2 trees until there are 7 trees.

For other levels it is enough to create a word combination stated at the top only once.

Also, bullets are a drop too, they are not hovering in the air (unless you decreased their speed to zero)

Controls:

Main

WASD to move,

Left mouse button to shoot,

Right mouse button to pick words.

M to mute music, N to mute sounds.

Word manipulation

Spacebar to swap non-sign words (empty cells swap too!).

Right click to delete a word.

Word rules:


There are 3 ways to create a statement:
1. Two same symbols: *tree, tree => more trees*
2. Sign (+, -) and object: *minus, ruler => make smaller*
3. Sign and two objects, one of which is modifier (heart, boot and ruler are modifiers): *plus, bullet, heart => bullet will pierce targets*

From level3, each 10 seconds target changes, from player to enemy. Non neutral statement will affect current target, (more trees is a neutral statement, but more bullets is not)

Notes:
1. If you don't get hit, something might happen
2. Movable trees are not a thing :(
