HOW TO PLAY?
Use F1 to move left, F6 to move right.
Use MENU to pause the game (this might be buggy).
Align the magnet with the block. For every frame where the magnet is on the same column as the block, you get 10 points (25 if your POWER bar is at max). After you get 1000 points, those values go up to 15 and 40 points.
THE POWER BAR?
The POWER bar is a value in the game, it is located at the left of the screen. It can go up to 8, 10, or 12, depending on the difficulty. For every frame where the magnet is on the same column as the block, you get 1 POWER point. For every frame where the magnet ISN'T on the same column as the block, you LOSE 1 POWER point. If your POWER bar gets to 0, you lose the game. Your goal is to get the highest score.
