What is Atomix?
Atomix is a 1990 2D transport puzzle video game created by Softtouch and published by Thalion Software. You might find hundreds of clones around the world..
The object of the game is to assemble molecules from compound atoms by sliding the atoms around. This has to be done in a set time limit for each level. The screen contains a small preview window showing what each molecule should look like. The tile-based playing field contains a number of atom blocks, as well as walls. The player can move an atom around by selecting it, and moving it up, down, left, or right. The catch is that, when moving, an atom block will not stop moving until it hits a wall or another atom block. Even if it is the last atom to complete the molecule, it will keep moving past the almost complete molecule. Since it is not possible to stop anything in mid-movement, it requires careful planning to align all blocks properly. Of course, each level has a strict time limit.

It is optimized for 800x600 (which might be the final resolution), and will look strange if you select another resolution...
The goal is to build the molecule visible at the bottom in the left panel.
Controlling the "atoms" is easy: Just click the atom, arrow will appear. Click the arrow in which direction you want to move the atom.
If you want to deselect a selected atom (hide the arrows), just click the right mouse button.
Atoms move so long until they hit another atom or the borders of the playfield.
To pause/resume the game, press SPACE, to abort the game, press ESCAPE.
