Bubble Schmubble beta update

It’s just great to know that after all these years I still got some of my php-programming-skills left. Today I added online highscores to the Bubble Schmubble game using a little php-script which reads and writes the highscores in an xml file. This means you can now compete with your friends or colleagues. Isn’t that justGREAT!?!

I also moved the game to a new location. From now on you can check the game here:
http://games.justgreat.nl/bubbleschmubble/

Besides the online highscore option I also added some sounds (again)  and I animated the creatures inside the bubbles a little (quick and dirty).

Last but not least I removed the MochiAd from the game because it was way too annoying and I needed at least a 1000 players a day (!) to make just a little profit from it :( . Instead of the MochiAd I added normal google-ad-banner though,  in the hope it will pay me off some day :D .

I hope you enjoy playing against each other because your highscore will be visible to everyone who plays the game.

  • Nicely done!

  • nicely done ;-) bubble games never cease to entertain, do they ;-)

    maybe a nice addon would be “chains” … when new groups are formed, they are automatically removed as well, giving you a bonus. the bigger the chain, the bigger the bonus….. just an idea ;-)

  • Hi there,

    I wonder if you would allow me to have a look at the source of this game. I am currently investigating games like this to learn how to create them so it would be very useful if I could have a look :)

    Anyways, even if the answer is probably no – you did a wonderful job there!

  • Because you ask so polite I’ll put up some of the classes of the engine next week. I can’t post the complete source because the game is based on a closed source framework. but the classes i’ll post will give you an idea of how the game itself works…

    PS: please remind me if I forget to post in the comming days!

  • I uploaded two classes of the game which contain the most important code of the engine. You can download it here:

    I hope this’ll help you on your way to creat some cool games as well. Let me know when you do…
