Overview
You are a robot tasked with producing crystals. Organize a never ending supply of them and see how long you can last!
Controls:
arrow keys/wasd:
places/grows/cracks a crystal if possible
grow/crack crystals by stacking crystals of the same color
moves that don't use crystal discharge your jump instead (cursor turns red)
you start with a jump (white cursor) and recharge it when you crack a crystal
space/x (action):
charge jump, move the preview to the next crystal
at position 3, action moves the preview back to position 1
the heart cost for moving the preview back down increases (1-2-3-3...)
useful when you get stuck, but comes at a cost
u/z (undo):
you can undo all moves that don't generate a new color
click on the digit 3 to disable arcade mode (enables undo for all moves)
r (reset):
used to restart at any point (careful, can't be undone)
mouse:
tap next to the player to move to that cell
tapping on the active piece preview triggers action
Hints:
the more of these you read, the less you get to figure out yourself (SPOILERS AHEAD)
try to keep your jump for a move sequence that cracks a crystal, since that recharges your jump
crystals with neighbors of the same color are more likely to require a jump to leave from, try to keep the neighbors distinct
alternating between jumping and cracking crystals (then jumping to the next crystal to crack) can get you far
if you reach 5 hearts you will trigger a crystal anomaly (not easy)
hi these people are cool and helped test and find 🐛
