How To Play
While you are playing, bloxx will fall from the top of the gameboard to the bottom. Whenever they hit something, they will stop falling and a new block will appear at the top of the board. Everytime you complete a line, it will disappear and the lines above it will fall down one line.

The objective of the game is to make as many lines as possible and to keep playing for as long as possible before the screen fills up.

About
	Bloxx 1.1 for Windows 95 was created by Andy Feys in july and august of 1997. It was made as an exercise in Delphi 3. I had just bought Delphi 3 Standard, and this is my first program made with it. Ifyou find any bugs, or have any comments, or you want to see some extra features added, you can e-mail me at andy_feys@hotmail.com

Changes
	The only changes in this version are some minor bug fixes reported by a few users of  this little game. Most notably : the game doesn't always stop when it should, which resulted in some monster scores ! (thanks to Dan Madura for pointing this out to me ! Thanks, Dan)
