About this game

PopBubble is a classic Bubble Shooter elimination game. Players shoot colored bubbles from the bottom of the screen toward the top, aiming to group **3 or more same-colored bubbles** together to pop them. The goal is to clear all bubbles in the current level.

### 2. Basic Controls

1. **Aim & Shoot**: Press and drag on the bottom of the screen to adjust your aim angle (a guide line will be shown). Release your finger to fire the bubble.
2. **Wall Bounce**: Bubbles bounce off the left and right walls. Use ricochets to reach bubbles that are hard to hit directly.
3. **Switch Color**: Tap the switch button next to the launcher to change the current bubble's color, helping you match hard-to-reach areas.
4. **Pause**: Tap the pause button at the top to pause the game. From the pause panel, you can toggle music and sound effects independently.

### 3. Core Mechanics

- **Color Matching**: When a fired bubble hits the ceiling or an existing bubble, it locks into place. If **3 or more same-colored bubbles** become adjacent, they are popped.
- **Hanging Drop**: After popping, any bubbles disconnected from the ceiling will fall. Falling bubbles grant bonus points.
- **Combo System**: Each successful elimination increases the combo counter. The higher the combo, the more points per bubble. If a shot results in no elimination, the combo resets to 0.
- **Running Out of Bubbles**: If you exhaust all allocated bubbles before clearing the level, the game ends in failure.

### 4. Special Power-ups

Special items unlock starting from **Level 3**. There are 4 types:

| Power-up | Icon | Effect |

> Each power-up starts with 1 free charge. Once depleted, you can buy more for 100 coins each, or watch an ad if you run out of coins.
