Frozen Bubble
A Ridiculously Addictive Puzzle Game
As you probably already know Frozen Bubble is a popular free puzzle/arcade/reflex game game which is available on several operating systems including Linux, Windows, Mac OS X.
The original Frozen Bubble was written in Perl by Guillaume Cottenceau, and uses the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) library. The game features 100 levels and includes a level editor.
Like many popular free software/open source games, it features penguins a la Tux, who in this game shoot the coloured frozen bubbles to form groups of the same colour.
Such groups disappear and the object is to clear the whole screen in this way before a bubble passes a line at the bottom.
Whenever this is accomplished these bubbles go away. The purpose of the game is to eliminate all bubbles from stage.
Original version is for Linux platform but there are Win32, MacOS X and palmtop ports, as well! As the original it is released under the GNU GPL v2 license.
Frozen Bubble for S60 has been awarded in the Open Summer'04 for getting the second place after "The Journey".
