Mechanically, Smashing Pumpkins is about rolling an oblong shape through the world,
and building up enough speed to break. You only want to break on the objectives,
so you have to control your momentum to break at the right time.
Aesthetically, Smashing Pumpkins is about the artist's struggle to please their audience.
The pumpkin has to go as far as physically breaking, sacrificing itself for the children
who desperately want the candy inside. This mirrors the struggle of Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins,
and the level of emotional brokenness he endures to please his fans.
