Our take on Explomania
The description presents a broad set of modifier types, but each level limits which ones can be used. That restriction is central to the challenge: the listed properties are not all available at once, and progression depends on working with the selection provided.
What is Explomania?
Explomania is a physics-based game about reaching a portal by overcoming level obstacles.
Players place modifiers that set an object's properties, strength, and direction of action. Each level provides a limited selection of features, so progress depends on combining suitable properties and strengths. Available modifiers include Jumper, Reflective, Explosive, Flying, Slowdown, Descending, and Resilient. They affect movement or contact in different ways: Flying lasts up to 6 seconds, Descending makes an object drift downward for 6 seconds, Explosive triggers on contact, and Resilient provides resistance to falls and dangerous obstacles. The central activity is choosing and placing these modifiers to shape how objects behave through each level.
