Break bricks. CATCH falling shards — missed shards shrink your paddle and raise the floor.
Chain catches and breaks to build a COMBO multiplier on score and reactor fill. Hold SHIFT or right-mouse to open a GRAVITY WELL that reels shards in — it drains focus, so use it in bursts.
Some bricks drop WEAPONS (catch up to 3, then Q) or INSTANT pickups — MULTI-BALL, EXTEND, SHIELD, SLOW — that trigger the moment you catch them.
When the reactor fills, SPACE fires the pulse.
