An interesting freeware game from Japanese software house OMEGA, Every
Extend is a top-down action game (over a 3D background) in which you control
a bomb – literally, a bomb – which you must maneuver for maximum damage. Enemy
cubes of various kinds move around the playfield and by triggering an
explosion at the right moment you can create massive chain reactions which
wipe your enemies out.

The ultimate goal in Every Extend is to gain points by blowing up enemy
cubes and by collecting energy capsules (bonuses that are released from
exploding green cubes). You can collect “quicken”-capsules from purple cubes,
which will increase the frequency and speed of enemies (a must if you want to
create massive explosion chains), and finally there are sunlight-yellow
capsules release from yellow cubes, which will give you a +10 second time
extensions. Whenever you manage to blow up one of these cubes (green, purple
or yellow) it will release a few shots before exploding; hitting one of those
shots or any of the enemies will lose you a life as well as a -5 second
penalty. You start with 2.5 minutes and 12 bombs in your “stock,” and whenever
you gain enough points you get an extra bomb (an “extend”).

Finally, when you have 45 seconds left, you will face one of several bosses
(depending on the game mode – “light” or “heavy” – and your performance) which
you have to destroy by creating adjacent chain reactions. When the game is
over you will get several bonuses: a “stock” bonus (for the bombs you have
left), a time bonus and a “chain” bonus (for the maximum chain length in this
particular round.)
