Made for the Spring Lisp Game Jam 2024

Zenith is a small physics puzzle game. Similar to fruit ninja combined with a matching game.

How to play

Runes/stones will come flying into your screen, click and drag them towards the top of the screen to attach it to the ceiling.  Letting a rune fall will cost one life.

Clicking on a rune will activate it, by activating a combo of runes, you will gain points.

The game will progressively get faster.

Try to get the highest score you can!

Point Calculations

3x of the same rune type: 3 points

Selecting all 4 of the rune types: 5 points and 1 life

I like it, fun to play and good sound and physics.  Thanks for posting those links to the game art, the background looks nice!, I was wondering how it was made.

Easy to get into, and very fun to play! I got 148 :D Love how chaotic it gets.

168 points. It felt pretty easy up until 100 points, then everything suddenly started cascading all at once, which was very surprising! It was almost easier to click the runes to get them off the board without pinning them to the top first. Nice game.

Quite the addicting game! Here's my best score so far
