Obscure DOS Shareware Game: Tubes (1994)

My Obligatory Shareware game for the day =D

Tubes is another matching puzzle type game, in the vein of Columns, Gems and the latter games like Puzzle fighter. In this game you catch different elements in beakers and chain them together to form "molecules". There are also all sorts of other molecules that can help or greatly hurt you (like the grey coloured Xenon molecule, which does nothing and just gets in the way until you can find a way to blow it up). Overall a pretty fun and interesting game.

@Makielia yeah dude i love old games' music totally imagining how it could be transformed into heavy metal or rock :) try listening to Sonic 3 & Knuckles!

[Makielia]

Ok, can anyone else picture the music for tubes (as your playing the game, such as what starts at 1:39, etc) being remade into Heavy Metal and the like? Or am I just strange like that... >.> I just think it's funny, I can totally picture someone remixing this music (being sure to keep the same toon) and rocking out to it.

This is such an old game... *sigh* Good times... good times...

this guy isn't a very good chemist for creating eight new elements

There's so much stuff wrong with the scribbles on the blackboard, I don't even know where to begin.

Game looks good though.
