Some now, some later

Try stopping before all nine are popped. Open the press, see which bubbles remain, then close a little further to finish the sheet. The press depth controls the pops; you don’t need to aim at individual bubbles.

Sound, if you want it

Sound starts off. Turn it on to hear the pops when you press by hand, mouse or keyboard. The automatic Play demo stays silent.

A keyboard works too

Focus the Open–Press slider and use its arrow keys for small changes. Mouse and touch players can drag directly on the toy or use the same slider.
