DOSGames.com Review:  Rating: 3.5
The documentation for this game notes that is "Inspired by Bust-A-Move by Taito, Inc." That's nice of the author to note, because this game copies the play-mechanics of the popular Bust-A-Move / Puzzle Bobble games quite closely. You shoot colored balls towards the top of the screen, trying to make matches of 3+ of the same color to clear them. Once you clear them all, you move on to the next level. This game has some interesting features, perhaps most notably the ability to play a 2-player game either locally or over an IPX network. (May not be too feasible these days ...) It also allows many customizations, via the config file and/or BBEDIT program, but the program seems buggy and didn't work well when I tried to use it. Still, this game has good production values with decent graphics and musical soundtrack.

BALL BLASTER V1.0 By Chris Haag
Inspired by Bust-A-Move by Taito, Inc.
By shooting colored balls at other balls of the same color. When
        you get a combination of 3 or more, they will disappear. Any other
        balls that aren't connected are "loose" balls and they fall down.
        When there's no balls left, you win the level. Sound easy? I
        thought so too. Thats why after every 20 balls you shoot, 2 new
        rows appear. Doesn't sound like it happens very often, but you'd
        be suprised...
System requirements:
        About 550K of conventional memory free
        At least 1 meg of ram (the game uses XMS)
Minimum suggested requirements:
        486DX/40
        14.4K modem

Write me If you have an idea for a special effect, know of any good MOD
