(*) = to prevent cheating in the Arena, extra lives are counted immediately but they are added to your status only at the end of the match.

(**) = The explosion takes place where you took the bonus, so look for shelter somewhere else !
   

Killing enemies will give you points in different ways :

enemies combo type points
1 in one shot regular, no combo 3.000
2 in one shot Double Kill 10.000
3 in one shot Triple Kill 20.000
4-5 in one shot Devastation ! 30.000

In "one shot" means that the "killing" is done with one bomb.
   

In the Arena users will compete by playing each other submitted maps.

Every registered user (registration is free) will be able to create his own
custom-maps, test them and submit them, to challange other players.

You will start out with 0 points and 5 "credits" (lives) that will increase or decrease,
based on how well you will play !

When you run out of credits you will be able to "buy" some of them by spending
part of your score ( sub-zero score are permitted, so you can buy credits even if you score is negative ! )

PLEASE NOTE: When you re-play maps in the Arena your score will be updated only if you scored better than the previous match.

If you scored better you will get the difference between your previuos best score and the new score.
