Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Crazy Bubbles is an addictive puzzle game where you have to pop-out bubbles
from a board to get points. The bigger the cluster the bigger the score.
At first it might seem like you are just randomly clicking around, but then
you understand the importance of strategy and speed.
System Requirements
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
General hardware requirements:
- CPU: as fast as you can get I have 2x3Ghz, works fine with 50% colourparticles
- RAM: 20MB free should be fine
- Graphics: It doesn't use hardware acceleration, but you might as well as have a nice graphics card.
- Software: Windows with DirectX 7 or better.
Installation
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Copy the .exe to somewhere and run it.
Basic Gameplay
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Point and click the bubbles, try and make as big clusters as you can to gain
as much points as you can.
Controls
^^^^^^^^
The Mouse button to click at the bubbles.

Really nice game! Graphic effects are really good. Maybe there shold be some special bubble types? For example:
1. one that can be connected with any color.
2. one that does not connect with anything (cannot be destroyed).
3. one with some color (connects normally with other bubbles of the same color) but which has a greater multiplier to the score.
4. one like 2, but with fixed position. It does'nt move anywhere so it blocks other bubbles from moving too.
1. one that can be connected with any color. -- Was in mind
2. one that does not connect with anything (cannot be destroyed). -- Was in mind
3. one with some color (connects normally with other bubbles of the same color) but which has a greater multiplier to the score. -- Bonuses will come
4. one like 2, but with fixed position. It does'nt move anywhere so it blocks other bubbles from moving too. -- Yeah maybe...

Add some setting to options with which you can change amount of colors of bubbles :P Like to have more different colors: purple, pink, orange and so on. Adds up some difficulty!
Really nice! You could try to separate different styles of bubbles also with their shape so it would be faster and easier for the player to make decisions. Main gamemode could use a colorful backround. The music really sucks but nice graphical effects overall
My computer get crashed always when i try to play. I seriously don't know why? There must be enough RAM and my CPU is 2.60gHZ and graphic card is Radeon 9200 SE with 128mb, but i eat my hat, it it's too low, because my computer was runned lot of heavier than this simply puzzle.

It's hard to say, the project is not under active development anymore. It doesn't run too well on my two core 1.6 GHz Atom. But it does run great on my quad core 2.8 GHz i7. You probably know that CoolBasic doesn't use hardware acceleration for rendering and such, so CPU is pretty much doing all the heavy lifting. I'm sorry.
