(Click to enlarge)
You have a large, medium and small magnet with north and south poles. you’re at odd ends of the screen as the robot.
Parts will fly across the screen at 3 positions, nearer you, nearer him and in the centre.
You’ve to use the correct sized magnet with the correct pole to catch the parts before the robot.
Swapping magnets requires you to click and pick up the magnet, swapping poles requires you to press space bar or right click.
The one who collects more parts wins the minigame.
How to account for levels?
- Vary the speed that items fly past
- Vary the number of items flying past (quantity)
- Vary the robots ability (AI) to suck away magnets from you
- Enable the user to build a static electromagnet which will suck any magnet that passes that point but need to charge to recover.
