*** YES, PHYSICS *CAN* BE FUN!!! ***
Use gravity to your advantage in this addicting physics-based action game!

- The Goal
Fill more than 66% of the screen with shapes to complete a level. The game
ends when you run out of shapes. Sounds easy, right? Think again! There are
enemy particles and other shapes to worry about!

- Creating a Shape
To create a shape, simply touch the screen. Keep pressing to make bigger
shapes. The shape drops to the bottom of the screen when you release your
touch.

- Enemies
Look out for enemies when creating a shape. If they hit a growing shape
before you drop it, the shape will be lost and you have one less shape to
complete the level.

- Rotating the Screen
The shapes always fall to the bottom of the screen. You can rotate the
screen to any angle you want. This is a good strategy to keep the enemies
out of your way!

- Scoring
You get points for every shape you drop. When you complete a level, you get
bonus points based on how many shapes you have left, how fast you completed
the level, and how much of the screen you filled.

- Zones
There are several Zones in the game. Each one has its own shape. To unlock a
Zone, you have to complete at least 9 levels from the Zone before it. The
last Zone has a surprise, so be careful!

- Pausing the Play
To pause the game, simply double-tap the screen.

- The Toy Box
In this mode, you can create any shape you wish. Simply touch the icon in
the panel and create a shape as normal. You can create up to 20 shapes. You
can move shapes around, delete them, and even clear the screen to start
over. There are no enemies to worry about in the Toy Box, so enjoy yourself!
