Arkadium's Bubble Shooter

Arkadium's Bubble Shooter is a traditional bubble shooter game with a unique power-up mechanic; power-up bubbles that are dropped from the grid (instead of matching) will be loaded into the player's launcher and take on new effects. The randomly generated levels progress in difficulty, so tactical use of these power-ups is necessary to avoid running out of moves.

The game was developed by Arkadium using Pixi.js and Adobe Animate by a small team (a programmer, artist, designer, producer, and testers). Early versions of the game supported an infinite mode that maintained "pages" of bubbles that were generated as needed; these pages were preserved in the final game as a means to limit the number of active bubbles in the game.
