✨ NAME ✨

flblocks — the fltk block attack! game 🧱💥

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

so like. Blocks is a FLTK-based block elimination game, and it's giving main character energy fr fr. Stacks of colored blocks move from right to left, and the way that you play is you click on them to eliminate groups of adjacent blocks. As the game progresses, more colors are added (up to a maximum of 7, yes queen, seven whole colors 🌈) and the blocks move faster and faster. it's giving chaos and we're obsessed 💅

🎮 GAME PLAY 🎮

• Press the spacebar to start a game. periodt, that's the whole start button. ✨
• As the blocks move across the window, click on groups of two or more blocks to clear them — the larger the number of adjacent blocks, the greater the score. big group = big points, it's literally math 🫶
• Clicking on a block containing a dark ball will clear all blocks of that color... however 💀 you will score much fewer points than a normal click. so like, yes it's a panic button, but it's a cheap panic button, iykyk.
• The game is over when the blocks reach the left side of the window. that's it. that's the whole loss condition. tragic. 😭
• Press the spacebar to pause the game. pause is self-care, bestie 🧚
