- Basic rules
- Fire the color cannon and shoot colored balls at the glass.
- You start with 100 balls.
- You don’t need to fill the glass with all the balls, but you must have enough remaining balls to fill the glass.
- Both the glass and the cannon have a number below them to indicate the number of balls they have.
- Fill the glass with the stated number of balls.
- Move the platforms to create a path for the balls to bounce off.
- Make sure to restrict your clips or taps to the sliders or marked off areas. Selecting anywhere else will cause the cannon to shoot.
- You may use trial and error to identify the best position of each of the platforms.
- Once the glass is filled, shoot all the remaining balls from out of the cannon. Have no balls remaining on the cannon to clear the level.
- Strategy
- Tap briefly to test fire a few balls, track where they go, and then adjust your platforms as needed to complete the level.
- Some platforms act like ledges or ramps, whereas other platforms act like trampolines. In some cases you can’t easily distinguish between those reactions until after you have put balls in motion.
- A steeper drop at a more perpendicular angle can cause the balls to bounce higher off of trampoline-like platforms.
- If you have to start over try to use the screen background design to help guide you into where to position your platforms.
- Creativity in your layout
- You do not have to use all platforms to beat each level.
- In many instances there are simple ways to only use one or two platform moves to beat a level.
- On a few levels you simply need to move platforms out of the way so they do not interfere with the existing ball path.
- On some levels you can shoot balls in short bursts, use a platform, move that platform to a second location, and guide the balls in a handful at a time.
- Ball count
- The level does not end until your remaining balls reaches zero, even if you already reached the level goal.
- When you do not have many balls left & the path is complex pause your fire temporarily so that many of the balls can traverse the path and you can reach the level goal before your remaining ball count reaches zero.
