Use arrow keys to move around, and tap space to use an item (if you have one)\r\n\r\nRule 2. Be noticed, all items can be used for only one time.\r\n\r\nRule 3. There are phantoms (obviously, in a phantom tower) around, don't let them touch you ! \r\n\r\nRule 4. The goal is NOT to kill all phantoms, the goal is to find the way to break the level down, using the classic tricks.\r\n\r\n\r\nEnvironment and tools:\r\n\r\nEngine: Cocos2d-JS\r\nEditor: Brackets\r\nAudio: none\r\nArt work: Photoshop, Texture Packer\r\nHosted on github\r\n\r\nOh, b.t.w, there are randomly two ending, ;-D\r\n\r\nHope you enjoy it.","title":"Phantom Tower: Classics"}
