Edited. I'm a big Bubble Bobble fan (3rd in the Super League Round 7 of 2012, thank you very much) and I still haven't had a moment to give Tiny Bobble a shot.

30 Spindizzy Worlds

30 Pinball Dreams

20 Hunter
20 Lemmings
20 Tiny Bobble


Traps 'n Treasures:
Has a score. I've not played it much so don't know if there are any issues such as respawns etc. Looks like it should be fine. If you know otherwise let us know.

Spindizzy Worlds:
No score but I did notice it has a completed percentage for levels. There is also a save game option for anyone looking to complete it. Anyone more experienced than me got a recommendation of how to play it?

Percentage is meaningless, you get almost 100 percent for each played level. We can take the number off collected jewels which corresponds directly to your skill. And since the time limits are so tight I recommend to allow to retry a level even for score runs (The game offers a retry only when you fail on a level, valid completions can not be repeated this way.)



The game is actually 2 games: Easydizzy and Harddizzy. We could give 2 completion badges, one for each completion.


When completing the the last level, no score is being displayed anymore but you get a weird explosion sequence. (Score is also not available anymore on main menu, I tested that shortly with Easydizzy.) So we can play only up to the last but one level for score.


For HardDizzy, we need 2 score screens, because the levels do not fit all on one page.

Sounds good. I'll give it a go soon, so I'm more familiar with it.
