A
Puyo Puyo-like
shareware game for the
Macintosh by
John Stiles. Was originally called
Skittles 2, as it was an
improvement on a simpler near-
clone called
Skittles, but apparently the
copyright issues finally caught up with him.
Gameplay differences between the original Puyo Puyo and Candy Crisis include the existence of two additional "candy" colors, "Crazy Candies" which take on the color of a nearby piece, bombs which blow up all candies of the color of the piece that the bomb landed on, and the fact that if more than four candies explode at once and some transparent candies are queued up to fall on you, pieces are subtracted from your queue before they're added to your opponent's.
Other features of this $25 program include being able to view the best chain reaction that you've executed, a more Tetris-like solitaire mode, and excellent music. Now if the thing were only networkable it'd be perfect... sharing a keyboard to play a two-player game is awkward.
