About
A quick-fire catch game with pixel-art fruit. Apples, bananas, grapes and melons are worth more the rarer they are, golden stars are worth 100, and catching in a row builds a multiplier. Magnets widen the basket, clocks slow time, and bombs cost one of your three hearts. Drop ten pieces of fruit and it's over. The pace rises every 20 seconds.
Objective: Score as many points as possible without catching three bombs or dropping ten fruits.
