Clear the spheres from the Neopian night skies by gathering them into groups of three or more. Earn additional points by getting on a streak of sphere-clearing shots. Also, keep an eye out for power-ups that might be of benefit (while making sure to stay away from those that could trip you up). Do you have the accuracy needed to successfully make your way through all three lands? There's just one way to find out: ready, aim… fire!
GAME HELP : Here are some tips you can use while playing the game.
GAMEPLAY: Shoot spheres towards the group in the centre of the screen. Match three or more of the same color to clear them and drop others. At the top of the screen in the holder (pictured to the right) are the spheres you'll be shooting next. Press the SPACEBAR to toggle between the two spheres. Use the mouse to aim. Click to shoot. Shot spheres will bounce off the sides of the game area several times before disappearing. For each sphere shot a meter to the right of the holder will be reduced by one if no spheres are removed with that shot. When it reaches zero, new spheres will fly towards the center. Clear all the spheres to finish a level.
LEVELS: The game has at least 15 levels. If you have been able to reach level 16. Then please make a screenshot of the beginning of the level, and mail it to admin@fgn-guild.com. It can then be added to the page for everybody to see :) Below you see screenshots of the first 15 levels. As you can see that the level in the beginning of the game are easy, but later on you start with so many spheres that it is difficult to complete a level.
TOP OF GAMESCREEN: At the top of the game, you see all the info you need to look at.
At the left you see your score (very important if you try to beat AAA or want to get a trophy), and which level your currently playing. In the middle you see two spheres. The bottom sphere is the current sphere you need to shoot towards the spheres in the middle of the gamefield. The top sphere is the sphere that you get after shooting the bottom sphere. It is good to know which color sphere this is, to score more points. More about that below. And then the right side, there you see a couple grey spheres.
You begin with 5 of them. Each time you shoot a sphere without being able to remove spheres from the game, one grey sphere disappears. When all the grey spheres are gone, the gamefield receives a random amount of colored spheres. Watch out after these spheres have been added. When the hit the border of the gamefield, the game ends. Shoot these away first!
SPHERES: There are lots of 'normal' spheres in all kind of colors. But as aspected, there are other kind of spheres too. Here you see them, and what they can do to help you in the game:
Rainbow Sphere This sphere can become any color when hitting 2 or more other spheres. Until that moment, the sphere stays rainbow. Use it wisely.
Bomb When making contact with other spheres, this bomb goes off and all directly surrounding spheres will be destroyed. When using the bomb in a winning streak, the chain is broken and you get one point per sphere.
Plus Sphere This sphere will become the color that the outer circle of the sphere has. When shooting this sphere you will not lose a grey sphere at the top of the gamescreen. So this will delay the moment that new spheres get added.
Perimeter Sphere Use this sphere clear all the spheres that are on the exterior perimeter of the center cluster. So if you use this at the very beginning of a level, it will only clear the outer ring of spheres. However, later on, most of the spheres are usually next to the open space on the outside of the cluster, so it tends to clear most or all of the spheres on the screen.
POINTS: To start with, each sphere you shoot down is worth 1 point. So when you destroy 10 red spheres in your first shot, you receive 10 x 1 = 10 points. Then you make your second shot. Now an other color sphere and you destroy 7 spheres. With this second succesfull shot you earn 2 points per sphere. So, 7 x 2 = 14 points. Each next succesful shot will make each sphere worth 1 extra point then at your previous shot. This proces goes on until you fail to make a succesful shot and fail to destroy a group of spheres. Then you start again with 1 point per sphere. This chain also gets broken when using the bomb.
SHOOTING THE SPHERES: Making a succesful shot sounds easy, but most times you need to get your sphere at the sides or the bottom of the gamescreen. Watch the arrow and make an angle to hit the sides of the gamescreen. The sphere will bounce back at the opposite angle and will bounce to other sides until it makes contact with a sphere. Practice this a couple times in the first levels to to help you in the more difficult levels.
An other important notive when shooting the spheres; When the sphere is shot in a straight line to the bottom, the spheres will not rotate. The more you hit the sphere to the left or right, the more speed is created to rotate the sphere. This can cause to be a problem when a sphere can make contact the border. Shoot wisely to avoid ending the game.
GAME OVER: This game has no time limit and you can not run out of spheres. This sounds good, so that you take your time and have a break. To make a high-score this game need to be played for several hours. The only way that the game ends, is when a sphere hits the border. To warn you this will happen, a sphere that almost touches the border will get a red glowing surrounding. Watch out for them, and destroy them asap!
TIPS:
To get a higher score, better keep playing the first 5 levels. To do this you must avoid the level to be completed and make sure you keep spheres in the game.
To avoid completing a level early, make sure the colors of the sphere touching the middle ball are different. When they all are the same, you might destroy them all, and that will result in moving to the next level.
Before you make a points chain, make sure there are enough combinations of 2 same colored spheres. That way you can hit a third sphere to all of them to get more and more points.
