Sunshard: Burn the Crystals

Sunshard is a one-thumb arcade game about burning crystals with sunlight. Drag your thumb along the see-through strip at the bottom and the sun spot moves like a cursor on a touchpad, anywhere on the field. Crystals chime as they shatter, with a light vibration in your hand. There are no ads, and it plays in nine languages. HOW A RUN GOES A run is one day, and a day lasts a minute. Your Sunlight fades as the sun goes down, and every crystal you burn costs a little more in glare. Break what you can, then spend the shards on the upgrade tree and go again. The runs are short; the progress stays. WHAT IS IN THE GAME • Seventeen kinds of crystal in five sizes, all of them on the move, each with its own trick: amethyst splits, sunstone gives Sunlight back, emerald heals its neighbors, lodestone pulls every shard home, ruby bursts, obsidian glares, sapphire shields, the drifter runs away, diamond shrugs off part of each hit, prism doubles your damage, slivers swim in schools, amber drops a rarer currency, pearls roll fast and pay triple, urchins crawl toward your sun spot, constellations wind across the field and pay a bonus broken whole, and twin moons circle each other. • Six regions, each with its own ground and light, from sunlit sands to a sky of glittering ice. • Six Hearts, giant geodes you call when you choose. One splits into four, one heals itself, one sends out shockwaves, one hides behind guards, and the last does it all. A Heart that gets away keeps its cracks. • An upgrade tree that grows out from the sun: more than a hundred nodes, paid in four currencies, opening branch by branch. Every node shows the number before and after you buy. • Sunwings, butterflies of light that burn crystals on their own, and an Observatory whose research runs while the app is open. • Twelve sun sigils that each change how a run plays, and cost something for it. Only a few can be worn at once, and the best choice changes from region to region. Six bridge nodes join two branches and reward buying both. • Bring down a Heart and choose one of three blessings, yours for good. • Meteor showers, rainbows that double your shards, and eclipses that change the rules. • Rimmed crystals from the third region: rich, hard, fast or giant. • Break ten in a second and a combo starts; every break in it pays more. • Every material sounds different, from the chime of glass to the crack of obsidian, and a critical hit, a ruby burst and a falling Heart each have a vibration of their own. • After the last Heart, Region ∞: floor after floor, with your best kept. • A daily challenge, the same for everyone that day, plus daily quests, fifteen achievements and a collection to fill. • The Sun Mine makes shards while you are away. FREE TO PLAY, NO ADS The whole game can be played without paying. Everything that makes you stronger is earned by playing; money only gets you there sooner, or changes the look. Double Shards makes every shard count twice, for good. Sun Mine warps give you hours of the mine's shards at once. Three lenses recolor the sun spot and the crystals without changing a single number. The Supporter Pack bundles Double Shards, two lenses and a warp. No random items, no energy timers, no subscription. Restore purchases is in the shop.
