PLAYING THE GAME
----------------
The main idea of the game is to progress through all the levels in a
section by clearing each grid completely.
Move your DJ popper left and right across the bottom of the grid with your
predefined left and right keys (Default is Left/Right arrow keys)
or a joystick (if you have one, and have configured it), and throw bubbles
up the grid.
The colors you can throw come in a predefined color sequence, and the
next bubble is formed from the BUBBLE CREATION TUBE.
Pop bubbles on the grid by matching three colours vertically for 100
points, horizontally for 200 points and into the screen for 1000 points.
If the colors do not pop, the bubbles will stack up.
You must hurry though, because the bubbles will keep advancing, and if
they reach the DJ, it's game over!
Luckily there are special bubbles to help you in your quest - These are:
Level tokens - Collect either 3, 4 or 5 of these silver stars (depending on the level) and you
automatically finish that level
Powerups - Each time you collect a powerup, your POWER UP TUBE advances,
choosing a different powerup each time (Flip Column, Colour Swap, Rainbow, Bowling Ball, Freeze Column, Earthquake, 3x3x3, Burst Same Color, Burst All).
Extra Time bubbles - Collect one of these to add 30 seconds to your clock.
Useful for extra bonus at the end of a level.
Blockers - Rock bubbles that will stop other bubbles advancing if you can get them down onto the grid.
To fire a normal bubble, press your predefined fire key (Default is right CTRL).
To fire your special powerup ( from the power up tube ) press your SPECIAL
key (Default is right SHIFT).
SUPER WEAPONS
-------------
Each DJ has a color, e.g the C29's is blue. Popping bubbles of this
color builds up a plasma bowl gradually.
When the plasma bowl is full, it will glow brightly. This indicates that the players SUPER WEAPON is available!
To fire this weapon, press and hold down the SPECIAL key for at least 1
second, and stand back!
LEVELS:
There are 8 training levels to help you get started. These should cause
you no problems!
20 Chillin levels are next. To help you, the bubbles will flash if the
next bubble will cause a pop. Try to get PERFECTS!
Then 20 Groovin' levels are the next skill set to conquer - this time there's no help
for you - you'll just have to manage on your own
Try the 10 Hardcore levels. This time, make sure you finish in time,
otherwise it's game over!

Continues are granted at the start of each game. Use them wisely!
