Reverb is a puzzle homebrew game based on the Flash game Compulse.

User guide

This game is about trying to get the white ball into the big purple one while fighting gravity and friction with anti-gravity blocks.

You also want to get to the finish point with the shortest run, least amount of anti-gravity blocks, and fastest build time.

You have to avoid obstacles like bombs, walls, and traps, while jumping through portals and grabbing keys.

Square - Delete the top block under the mouse

Known Bugs:
- Death animation (stars) slowed down a bit. This is to keep the game from slowing down until I find a way around it.
- Usual collision limitations.
- timer will sometimes jump up an extra 7000 seconds, for some unknown reason.
- If more than one green/ yellow block is placed, it increases the strength of a single one. Still counts the new block.
