Square on Strings

The Square on Strings is the most commonly distributed member of the String Obstacle class. It is found in Checkpoint 3 multiple times, Checkpoint 6, and in Endless Mode. It is the 2nd member of its class. There are 3 ways to clear them out of your way.
 * 1) Because you do not have Explosive Balls on Checkpoint 3, you need to disconnect it from at least 2 of its strings.
 * 2) Way number 2 is to get close to them, then fire in front of your perspective so you don't get hit and by performing both of these ways, you won't lose 10 balls + your current ball streak.
 * 3) Use the "shearing" technique, (preferably with Infinite Balls) to cut a gap in the center. The two halves will fly apart.
 * Their stronger counterpart, the Painting, is stronger because of metal in the center. They are defeated similarly, the only difference being that you cannot shear the Painting, with indestructible metal in the center.
 * The Square on Strings is also used in some of the press kit files, and was a former background for the wiki, before being replaced with an image of Checkpoint 1 stage 1. It is now a header background.
 * The web page 13 Things You'll Only Understand If You Play Smash Hit also used the Square on Strings as an image (but wasting balls). It also features in Smash Hit - Official Trailer.
 * The Deathstar Checkpoint used a Square on Strings as well.
