BoomShine For S60 5th Ed Devices
Test Both Your Patience And Desire To Win!

Just a quick note to say I was playing a great online flash game developed by Danner Miller the other day and decided it would make a great Nokia N97 game, so I contacted Danny and asked his permission to do it.

I wrote the entire thing from scratch but kept the look and feel exactly the same as the original Boomshine version.

I've also added a Leaderboard function so if you wish to submit your score once (or IF) you complete the game you will receive worldwide recognition of having too much time on your hands.

The basic idea of the game is rather simple, gameplay is fairly easy, but Boomshine is still incredibly addictive and very fun game that will keep you playing for hours as it tests both your patience and your desire to win.

Its online flash version has sucked in players from all over the Web with its tranquil classical music and slow-moving bubbles. As colourful balls glide across your screen, you can drop one ball of your own and watch it expand in diameter. The goal is to expand far enough to come in contact with a certain number of the free-floating bubbles.

So just touch the screen to start a chain reaction, try to burst as many dots as needed to pass a level and that’s it! As easy as this game sounds, it is heavily based on patience. Since it was released in 2007, hundreds of thousands of people have played 20 million levels of Boomshine.
