Firework Hum game guide
Goal of the game
In Firework Hum you play with the pitch of your voice (hum low or high). HUM to charge a rocket: the glowing height line climbs while you keep humming. STOP humming to launch it, and it bursts exactly at the line. A SHORT hum bursts LOW near the ground, a LONG hum (about 2 seconds) bursts HIGH near the top.
Burst rockets on the golden STARS floating past to score. Night bats swoop down toward the launcher: blast them before they reach it or you lose a life. Power-ups: Triple (three rockets at once), Double Points and Slow-Mo. Tune the 🎚️ sensitivity slider for your voice.
