◘Controls a|d (*alt:left_arrow|right_arrow):

•Holding a|d: move left/right

•Tapping a|d: toggle fan ON/off

•Holding a+d: fan Turbo

•Tapping a|d while holding d|a: speedboost in the direction of movement

*keyboard arrowkeys may have slightly different timing, and trouble with double controls, a+d usually works better. | means or.

◘Objective:

Prevent the Cait from getting past you by blowing them together. Any Cait blown out the top half of the screeen will respawn in future waves, but those blown/moved out the bottom half will get past you. If too many Cait get past you, the game will end. Bottom right radar shows the current wave's incoming formation 1 screen away. Radar will help you preposition the fan and give time to strategize. The fan can only maintain operations for 300 seconds. Any Cait remaining after 300s will automatically get through (so don't blow it off...ha..ha.ha, ya).

◘The FANkitty:

The fan can be moved back and forth in a circular orbit above the Earth. It can also speedboost to quickly reposition.

The fan has two modes (ON/Turbo):

1. ON will slowly affect the closest object in its aoe. It is manually turned on/off, can be used while moving, and can be used with Turbo for even faster propulsion.

2.Turbo will quickly affect the closest object in its aoe, but also any other objects in its aoe so long as they are within a certain range of the closest object. Turbo can only be used while stationary, holding both keys down.

☻☻☻☻☺The score to beat is 5/9. Goodluck! ☺☻☻☻☻

☻☻☺Game has a secret second mode/ending. Hint: be woke☺☻☻

◘Just The Tips:

•Explosions trigger other explosions. And Turbo can ~move explosions.

•Blowing from behind enemies is underrated and worth exploring.

•Blowing Cait away, out of bounds along the top-half of the screen, is better than letting them get through.

•Cait blown away will respawn in the last 50 seconds of the game. Any Cait blown away again will respawn faster and faster leading into the time-limit.

•Spend some time getting used to the controls. Tap controls will cover the slightest of human button taps, but get a fix on how long the tap actually lasts. 8/60s is the maximum length of time u can hold a key and have it count as a tap. Anything above 8/60s turns into a hold control. Speedboosts require care to avoid procing the fan on/off accidently.
