Bubble Shooter Software Team Absolutist.com www ftp://absolutist.com/pub/linux/bshooter.tgz Alternative download 3.13.1 Stop the color bubbles overflowing the board by shooting and arranging them. Your goal is to clear all the bubbles from the board, scoring as many points as possible. You shoot at them with more bubbles, and when three or more of the same color come together, they all explode. Point your mouse to where you want the next bubble to go (the arrow at the bottom will indicate that direction), and click to fire the shot. The more bubbles blow up at one shot, the increasingly more points you gain (six ones at one shot is better than two three-bubble shots). Besides, those bubbles that fell apart from the rest will explode too. It is well worth trying to arrange such avalanches, as they will give you ten times more points than ordinary bursts. If your shot fails to detonate any bubbles, you get a foul, and when there are several fouls, a new line of bubbles appears at the top. The number of misfires allowed before bubbles will advance again, is shown in the bottom left corner. Various skill levels differ by the number of shots that you are allowed to fire without success. There can be no draw in this game, either you clean all the bubbles off, or they move all the way down on you. arcade shareware $12.50 img off on off off off off 2002-07-18 3 2002-07-18 06:29:36 -1 www 0000-00-00 00:00:00 on

gljewels David Ashley www www Download a binary compiled for Redhat 6 1.0.2 Addictive game. Make jewels disappear by getting 3 in row. Uses OpenGL. You see an 8x8 array of 7 types of jewels. You need to make 3 or more in a row vertically or horizontally. Diagonals don't count. You move jewels by swapping neighbors that are left and right or up and down of each other. There is a clock that counts down, but moves up as you play. Very addictive game, and this implementation has beautiful 3d OpenGL graphics. <p> Source has been made available on this game. It wasn't there before. arcade free img on on off on off off 2001-06-13 bobz 2001-06-14 07:46:43 -1 www OpenGL, GLX, /dev/dsp. 2003-03-01 09:37:34 on
