## What is Cube Wars?

See how long you can survive against the dangerous Cubes! Includes two different game modes with more on their way! 

**HOW TO PLAY**
1) click play, then select mode and hit play again. 
2)time mode (clock button)-shoot the yellow cubes, avoid the blue. Time left is in top left corner, score is in middle. Every time you shoot and miss a yellow cube, you lose a point. Every time you shoot a yellow, you get a point. The clock icon will extend play time. Higher the score, the better and running out of time/touching a blue block will end the game. 
3) survival mode (heart button)- the longer you survive, the higher the score. Don't touch any blocks, shoot at everything. 
4) block types:
    1. Blue- can't be destroyed, shooting will move it out of the way, can not touch with player
    2. Red- can be shot to be destroyed, can be touched by player, shoots red bullets which you can not be hit by bullet 
    3. Clear/gray- can be shot to be destroyed, when shot will spawn 3 smaller cubes (when these are shot, they spawn 3 more smaller cubes each and will be destroyed if shot again), can not touch with player
    4. Green- can not be destroyed, every time shot block will grow slightly in size, can not be touched by player
     5. Yellow (time mode only)- shoot to get a point, can be touched by player 

 Modes:
Survival Mode-See how long you can survive! Be careful though, the longer you last, the harder it gets! 

Time Mode- Time to fight back! See how many Cubes you can eliminate before time runs out!

**Note In order for the play button to move you to the designated game mode, you must first click on the game mode select buttons (heart or clock) to specify which mode you would like. Once selected, the button will change color and the play button will work**
