About Bubble Struggle
Bubble Struggle, also known as Bubble Trouble, is a classic retro arcade-style shooter game developed by Kresimir Cvitanovic. The game features a devil character dressed in a trenchcoat, yellow T-shirt, and orange shorts, who must navigate levels filled with bouncing bubbles. It has been incredibly popular, with over 350 million plays, and has won awards for its addictive gameplay. The core objective is to destroy dangerous bubbles by splitting them into smaller components until they are completely eliminated, all while avoiding contact with them.
How to play
Your goal is to clear each level by popping all the bubbles. Bubbles start large and bounce around the screen. When hit by your harpoon, they split into smaller bubbles if they’re big enough, continue splitting them until the smallest ones pop completely. Avoid touching any bubble, as this will cause you to lose a life and restart the level. You also have a time limit, shown as a red bar at the bottom of the screen
Controls
- Player 1: Use the left and right arrow keys to move your character. Press the spacebar to shoot the harpoon upwards.
- Player 2 (in two-player mode): Use X and C keys to move left and right, and W to shoot.
The harpoon shoots straight up and can pass through platforms, but you can only have one harpoon active at a time, wait for it to disappear before shooting again.
