Lives

• The game starts of with 3 lives.

Grab Zone

• The dark green zone is the grab zone for the ball.
• The ball can be grabbed and thrown when it's present in this region.

Gold Bounces

• Gold bounce is the currency through which cards are unlocked and bought in the shop.
• Gold bounces are earned by bouncing the ball against the meteorite during gameplay.

Knight

• The knight will stay outside the grab zone if the ball is grabbed.

Fireball

• By default every throw starts off with a fireball.
• The speed of the ball is increased and can phase through an unguarded knight.

Knight Block

• If the knight has his shield raised, fireballs or freezeballs can no longer pass through him.
• Baiting out the block by bouncing across walls in the grab zone is a valid strategy.

Cards

• Cards are abilities that can be used during the game.
• They are split into 3 categories

Normal

• Most cards are normal cards.
• If the card is used without any form of curse dispel.
  • A curse is applied at the end of the card usage.
• Cursed cards can be dispelled by reducing the number of card bounces to 0. (Default is 5)

Broken

• A broken card has the (broken) phrase in it's name.
• These cards cannot have their curses dispelled.
• They tend to be cheaper alternatives to their non broken versions.

Special

• Special cards do not exist in the shop.
• They are only gained through rewards or random card purchases.
• These cards do not have any curses applied to them.

Card Bounces

• Card bounces are just like gold bounces but only exist in the presence of cards.
• Instead of it being a currency, they are more like fees / requirement to do an action.
• Only when card bounces is zero can the next action be taken.

Card Menu

• When the shadows of cards show up in the grab zone, a double left click leads to opening of the card menu.
• The game is paused during it's usage.

Card Description

• When a card is available for usage, it's and it's curse's description is shown through this UI.
• The card can either be used, skipped or put on hold by purchasing a random card instead.

Random Card

• If you have enough gold bounces from your previous playthroughs, a random card can be purchased during the game.
• This is possible through card description or when there aren't any cards left to proceed through the deck.
• Purchasing random card is one of the ways to gain access to special cards.

Reward System

• Rewards work based on score, higher the score better the rewards.
• High scores give double the amount.

Unlock Chamber

• Initially all cards are locked in the shop.
• The unlock chamber is where the cards can be unlocked.
• If enough gold bounces are earned in a gameplay, the option to enter the unlock chamber is provided.
• Any card that meets the unlock requirements can be unlocked with score earned during the gameplay.
• Score that is not spent unlocking is converted to Total Gold Bounces.

Side Wall Teleportation Card

• There is no teleportation effect in the grab zone and top near the meteorite.
