features:

game rules as multiplayer, generated malus bubbles are counted
as points - what score will you be able to reach in the 2
minutes time frame?

system has logic able to transparently handle players behind

eyecandy
revamped intro and 1p music into fully digital productions
full joystick support: just move your joystick(s) or push
