This is a game that wasn't. It was originally meant to be an Exvania clone,
but I just let it as a Bomberman clone due to the lack of joystick buttons.
Most of the game engine was done, but I lost interest, and my computer was
nicked with the source code (included is all that I have that remains - I
haven't recovered the graphics files yet). Technically it supports two
players but that would require hacking/recompiling to get to work.
To play, use a joystick (port 2), click to lay bombs. Behind bricks that can
be exploded are fire icons (which increase the reach of the bombs laid), +1s
(which increase the number of bombs layable at once), and different coloured
shoes (which translate to different speeds).
The computer controlled players use a simple AI where they won't go where a
bomb blast is set to be. They do not take into account obstacles - so if a
blast is cut short by a destroyable square, the computer will still act as
though the explosion continues on.
To exit this game press either Esc or F10. Press F8 or F9 to re-start an
example level. (The same level with different graphic sets - the green/blue
one with the "sperm" NPCs is better). One of the NPCs pushes the player, and
the other slows them down. NPCs can be killed but reappear.
