Elements Puzzle
Click pictures to enlarge them.
Another return to the Element series but it far diffrent than the usual! This time are hero Astro (see Sumo Ship Battel and Triangle Vs Square) must get out of a constantly changing maze. The more blocks you eat the more radical the maze changes, due to the gem drop nature. This game didnt take long to make at all, I just had this idea stuck in my head about a maze made of coloured bricks that fall, changing the level. It does not have the flashy presentation of Triangle Vs Square, but it has a special place in my heart.
How to play.
The object of the game is to get the yellow and black keys once you have them all you will go in to the next level.
Controls.
Left mouse button (held or clicked) will move the player.
Right mouse button (clicked) will turn astro white.
The colours of Astro.
You are astro a space man trapped in a rather odd maze! To move astro you will need to click the left mouse button (or hold it for fast movement) on the blocks next to him. When Astro is white and you move him to a coloured block, he will turn in to the other colour he has landed on, which will have diffrent effects.
If Astro is green, he can travel through green blocks. To gain points you will need to move on to the blue blocks and avoid the red blocks as they will kill you. If Astro turns blue he can travel through blue blocks. To get points you must land on red blocks and avoid green or Astro will die. If Astro is red he can pass through red blocks. To get more points he must land on green blocks and avoid blue ones as they will kill him.
Here is the table.

Travel: Pass through the block with no blocks and you will lose your multiplier. This will also make blocks fall once the combo has ended, this is usefull sometimes for getting out of sticky situations.
Kill: If you touch these blocks they will kill you.
Points: Collect these blocks for points, the blocks will not fall till the combo is broken.
If you get stuck at any time remembering which one you can and cannot go through just look on the right hand side of the screen it will tell you.
Removing Colour
Sometime you will have to use the right mouse button to turn Astro white again and select a new colour. You only get to do this three times in a level so use them wisely. You get a bonus for each chance you still have remaining at the end of the level and you lose your mulitplier each time you do this.
