Game Description:
    The cult favorite comes to the iPhone and iPod touch!
    Illuminations is an action game centered around fireworks. The goal is to shoot the rising rockets in order to set them off. Do a good job and you'll create a spectacular show of light. Miss too many rockets, and it's game over.
    Enemies will spawn to slow down your attempts. Shoot them as well to add to the show, and to prevent them from stopping you. Each rocket you miss will lower the crowd excitement meter, as will each stun shot you receive from enemies. Hitting rockets will raise the meter. If the meter reaches zero, it's game over.

FAQ and Support:

The game crashes
    All large games and applications like Illuminations can be subject to crashes if you haven't restarted your iPhone or iPod touch in several days. Hold the power button for several seconds to restart your device. This clears out any memory leaks or misbehaving programs that can be causing problems on the device. iPhone OS 2.2 helps to alleviate this problem and is a recommended upgrade.

The game refuses to start
    This can be caused by the system Apple uses to protect applications failing to recognize Illuminations. This can be solved by reloading the application. Hold the Illuminations icon until it starts to shake, then tap the X icon to delete. Then you can reinstall the game by syncing with iTunes or redownloading from the App Store. You won't be charged again for redownloading.

How do I listen to my own iPod music?
    Just start your own music playing and then start Illuminations. You can also double-tap the home button on the iPod touch to start your own music. iPod music playback requires iPhone OS 2.1 due to limitations in 2.0.
