Frozen Bubble is a free software Puzzle Bobble-style computer game. It features 100 levels and includes a level editor. In the game, penguins shoot colored frozen bubbles to form groups of the same color. Such groups disappear, and the object is to clear the whole screen in this way before a bubble passes a line at the bottom.
Version 2.0, available only for Linux, offers multiplayer play via LAN and Internet. Two players can also play on the same computer. The chain reaction mode (where fallen bubbles will zoom back up to complete triplets, possibly falling more bubbles and thus creating more combos) is also available in network mode as of Version 2.0, and greatly changes the mechanics of the game.

A fun game, but it was also written in Perl! And is very readable, if you want to learn how to make neat games using Perl, Python, Ruby, etc. I suggest you check this out!
