The aim of the Cannon Game is to use a cannon to knock down a tower of crates. You must get all of the crates below a line approximately at the horizon to win. If you win, you'll see a text message telling you how many shots you used and how much time you took. There's a HUD at top left of the window with a guage that tells you the cannon's current temperature and the maximum temperature experienced so far. Firing the cannon increases the temperature and it cools over the next few seconds. If the cannon overheats, then it explodes and you lose. You have 60 seconds to knock down the tower. There's a stopwatch to the right of the temperature guage so you can see how much time is left.
