Rules:
Winning by shooting down your opponent (depleting their HP bar). The game rotates between two phases: Prepare Phase (15 seconds) and Battle Phase (10 seconds). During Prepare Phase, each player gets 10 bullets to shoot down runes of different colors to gain specific effects (each takes 3 shots to destroy). During Battle Phase, all runes disappear, and players will have UNLIMITED bullets to shoot each other down.
Red Rune - increase the size of your bullets
Purple Rune - deal a small amount of damage to your opponent
Yellow Rune - heal a small amount and gain 5 bullets immediately
Blue Rune - creates an Asteroid of random size at the beginning of the next Battle Phase. You won't get damaged by touching your own Asteroids but your opponent will. Shooting your opponent's bigger Asteroids will make them split into smaller ones but they can't get destroyed further.
NEW: After the first Prepare Phase and Battle Phase, each player gets 8 + 1 bullets for every type of runes they shot down in the last Prepare Phase. So try to destroy a variety of runes if you want more bullets on the next Prepare Phase!
