i am officially a master of shoot rock
I was able to get like a crit or something. If you shoot the rocks right as it hits you, you can collect all the gems instantly and get 560 every time. Although you risk getting hit so...
Veteran shoot rockers call this the "Ivan maneuver". Ivan did not live long.
(This happens because you collect all the gems before they have a chance to spread out. 1024 bytes meant no space to add a delay before the gems become collectible)
cool
I really liked this game. I was able to get 9960 points
Top: 1150
Rock: Make me go pop.
Shop: No shop.
Pop: Rock go pop, me go pop more.
Shoot rock game great! Is hard. Like rock. Is polished. Like gem. Is compressed. Like diamond.
:D
Wow it's hard! It's like the rocks hate me. If I try to shoot them they dodge, if I try to collect gems they hunt me. I didn't even get half-way to 10,000 points. But it's fun! Thank you!
I have the same problem 😆
the effects are hast though
Rock devious enemy. Hard to outsmart.
