Splitting a large bubble creates smaller ones. Precision mode limits your available shots.
Pace: Continuous action; the timed chaos mode has 60 seconds.
An example decision
If several bubbles cross the same vertical line, you can prepare a charged shot. First check that the nearest bounce will not hit you while charging.
How to play
One harpoon at a time: aim carefully as you dodge the bounces. Hold and release to pierce up to three balloons. Catch falling power-ups: double harpoon, shield and freeze.
Move left and right and shoot upward. Big balloons split into two smaller ones. Pop the smallest ones too.
Watch the bounce before firing. Your normal harpoon must disappear before you fire again; use charged shots to pierce bubbles and collect power-ups when the path is safe.
