Match 3 or more atoms of the same color to destroy them. Atoms that are not

may react more easily than others!

*LEVEL EDITOR
Atom Smasher also features a fully functional level editor. You use the same 
tools we did when we made the puzzle game! When you first open it up, all of 
the different buttons might seem confusing, but really making your own 
levels couldn't be simpler!

**Basic Controls
- Left click		Drops an atom if one is currently selected, performs other 
functions if a tool is being used
- Right Click		Deletes whatever atom the mouse is over. Right clicking on 
one of the seven top atoms allows you to edit its color or design
- 1 Key			Holds the mouse steady verticaly while allowing for horizontal 
movement (perfect for drawing straight lines)

it
