This is Fruit Stacker, my PC version of the web game SkullStax and my first attempt at writing a game using Allegro. In the zip file is an executable (Windows) and the source files (C++ code and images).

It's commented as best as I could for anyone wanting to learn how the thing hangs together and appears to work. The main things still missing are sound, a high score table and animation. My initial goal was to write a game that worked, something smallish that could be dissected by others to learn from.

It'd be nice to get some comments on the game - improvements, what you liked, what sucked...

The zip file can be found here

BTW, is there a guide on how to include images or use different text for a link in these messages (like an <a href...></a>)?

{edit - Thanks Kikaru for the HTM Mockup codes...}

The game is fun to play. The only thing that could make it better is - giving time bonuses and showing the time as a bar.
If you show the time bar at the bottom, the player will see if the end is near. Giving time bonuses for multiple fruits - and time penalties for single fruit clicks will do it more action.
And for example, clicking two fruits will do no time - so the player will be forced to click three or more, or click to create this combinations (you already have this, but for creating score).

There is too much time at this time, I played it at the first time to the 8th level without problem and then the time dropped. If you do the time as I write, there will be a lot action, fighting each level.

Anyway, add some sound and perhaps some graphical effect (particles?) when clicking the fruit. Good work
