Note that a hit is not registered unless you hit the target completely. Hitting just the edge of a target is not recognized as a hit.
=====Gravity=====
To make the game as realistic as possible, a "gravity effect" has been added. While a ball is in play, gravity affects it. This is most noticeable as the ball moves across the screen. Instead of moving in a straight line, it gradually moves down as well as across the screen. To counter the effect of gravity, the ball's speed increases slightly every time it bounces.
=====Black Box=====
The black box at the top of the screen shows the number of the ball in play. The ball moves out of the box with a random direction and speed. If the ball rolls completely back into the black box after you have removed some of the triangle targets, you get a new ball. Your score increases and you hear the "new ball" music. After a pause the new ball automatically appears with a new speed and direction. The pause can be either long or short, so don't relax! This new ball will not affect the ball count, so it's in effect a free ball.
