Aurora

Curtains of green light ripple across the board. Every ball that passes through them counts: 25 balls give you an extra shot, up to 2 extra shots per stage. It moves after every shot. The lights shine for 5 s, then fade out for 3 s: only lit curtains count.

How it works

Curtains of green and violet light ripple across the board between your rocket and the bricks, with a little ring that fills up.

Effect on your game: Every ball that passes through the light counts once per shot. When 25 have passed, you get an extra shot, up to 2 extra shots per stage. It moves after every shot. Wide spreads of balls fill the ring fastest. The lights shine for 5 seconds, then fade out for 3, flickering just before they come back; balls only count while they shine.

In detail: how each part reacts

A wavy curtain of light across the whole board, between the rocket and the bricks. It moves to a new height after every shot.
It shines for 5 s, then fades out for 3 s, flickering just before it comes back. While it shines, every ball that passes through it counts once per shot and the ring at its left end fills up; while it's dark, balls pass through without counting.
Each 25 balls give an extra shot, up to 2 extra shots per stage. It never harms a ball.
Bright aurora (Tame): 18 balls a shot. Tall curtains (Tame): 60% taller. Faint aurora (Challenge): 35 balls. Charged lights (Twist): every ball through does double damage on its next brick.

Tip

Pure bonus: fire while the lights shine (5 s on, 3 s off) and spread your balls wide so as many as possible pass through. 25 balls give an extra shot, twice per stage.

In real space

Auroras are curtains of light in the sky near the poles, made when particles from the Sun hit the upper atmosphere. Astronauts see them from above. Read about it on Wikipedia ↗
