1. Getting Started
To begin playing Sky Ball, double click on "Sky Ball.exe". Once started, the title screen will appear. You can use the up and down arrow keys to navigate through the menus. Press the space bar to select. Under the options menu, you can turn the music on and off and switch between fullscreen and windowed modes. The game will remember your settings, so no need to set them again every time you start. You can also see your highscore on this screen.
2. Objective
The objective of the game is to jump from cloud to cloud without touching the bottom, while collecting the floating orbs for points.
1: This is the Sky Ball. You control him throughout the game.
2: This is a cloud. Sky Ball can land on them. They are very important.
3: THis is an Orb. Sky Ball can collect these for points. There are two types of Orbs: orange, and pink. The orange Orbs are worth 10 points. The pink Orbs are worth 50 points, and increase the games speed, resulting in greater distance. Once the game is at full speed, pink Orbs are worth 100 points.
4: This is your status display. It shows your current score, as well as your distance. Your total score at the end of the game is equal to your score + your distance.
3. Controls
Left/Right arrows: move the player left/right. While moving, you gain inertia. If you hit the wall, you can bounce off. This can play an important role in getting a high score.
Space Bar/Up arrow: Jump. Hold down the jump button to go higher.
Down Arrows: While in the air, it allows you to drop much faster. While on a cloud, it will slow you down very quickly.
