Don't drop the eggs as you click on them to jump them
to the next higher level.
Might drive you nuts.

now bare with me on this one- If I'm in a moving basket and I'm shooting at a stationary basket, it ought to be the same as shooting at a moving basket from a stationary one. The author ought to rethink her relativity.
At any rate, I lost my last few eggs at 220, because I had two moving baskets one directly above the other. Shouldn't be a problem, but alas...

Good Game.

The problem is you're thinking of what should happen considering real physics. In the game the eggs always travel directly up when bounced.
