Wish Fall app for iPhone and iPad

[Overview]

Each falling star has a wish in it. To make sure the wish comes true you must activate it by catching the star with its matching (color) cauldron. The cauldron consumes the star, grants the wish, and extract the stars Wish Power. Wish Power is used for the games score and currency for upgrades.

[Gameplay]

Stars cannot be moved by the player, but cauldrons can. Cauldrons are dragged horizontally, swapping places with the adjacent cauldron as it moves. Cauldrons extend below the surface to the bottom of the screen, so you can place your finger below a cauldron to drag it.

Double tap a cauldron to fire a harpoon which will grab the first star it hits, and quickly drag it to the cauldron.

Stars can be energized. Energized stars have increased Wish Power. To create an energize star, tap anywhere in the middle of the screen. Energized stars have a trail of small stars following it. Energized stars appear independent to the current waves schedule. You control the number and frequency of energized stars by how often you tap the screen.

Consuming 5 energized stars will unlock the bonus bar. Click the bonus bar when its flashing, and select one of the available bonuses from the bonus menu. There are 3 bonuses to choose from. The score multiplier is always available, and the extra lives and frost barrier can be permanently unlocked with Wish Power.
