I just release the Löve2D version. Everyone can now play at 60 FPS without any crashes. The web version is still available because sometimes you can play at 30 FPS without crashes.

Lot's of objectives, and a main one to win.\r\rSome few bugs, like there was a third small guy frozen for the rest of the rounds while the two of us battled it out.

Indeed, it's one of the possibilities to get rid of your opponents. With too much pressure, the balls can be ejected of the arena. I'm usually ejecting two or three opponents during the middle rounds. But at the end, it's really complicated because the "Corruption" is applied to the biggest bubble, and if it's you, your power is drained by the other player. However you did manage to eject it at the final round, so, wow. Well played!"},{"author_name":"Geckoo1337","author_uid":"35835","time":"Dec 31, 2015 @ 7:05pm","epoch":1451588400,"text":"I like the look of the game.
