Very Difficult Skill Game Online - Backfire
Remember the classic arcade game Pong? Well, get ready for a similar challenge – but this time, with bombs and explosions! Backfire is an extremely difficult mouse-based skill game based on a simple idea; You have to protect your brave little ball-shaped robot by deflecting the dangerous bombs that are being fired at it. Your mission is to destroy the missile-firing, turret gun bad guys by deflecting their bomb-shaped missiles back toward them (easier said than done!). Dodge and weave your way out of harm’s way in this all-action, fast-paced defensive shooting adventure. Concentration, hand-eye coordination, fast reactions, timing and a cool head under pressure are essential weapons against your bigger, and more powerful, robot enemies. Can you cause their missiles to ‘backfire’? It’s time to rev up your defenses, Robot Renegade! Can you handle the heat? Good luck!
How to Play: Getting up to speed with the controls requires patience and practice. You play the role of the smaller, Blue Robot whose movement mimics (copies) that of your computer mouse or touchpad. Larger missile-firing enemies automatically fire circular blue missiles at you, and if they first miss you, the missiles also bounce around off the sides of the game screen, and can come back at you from all angles. In each of the 15 increasingly difficult levels, your must eliminate the bad guys by deflecting their dangerous bombs back at them. You must avoid these missiles at all cost - if they hit off you where you are not shielded, it's game over.
To activate your Shield, Click and hold down your Left mouse button. While the Click is held down, your robot activates a white deflecting device (Shield) over the part of its surface immediately facing the incoming missile. If one of the blue missiles touches off your Shield, that missile turns white, and becomes a Backfire Missile which can cause damage to the bad guys. Each enemy robot has to be struck 3 times by a Backfire Missile in order to be eliminated. As you progress through the game, enemy robots increase in number, and their missiles increase in speed!
