Circus Linux – a clone of the Atari 2600 game “Circus Atari,” produced by Atari, released in 1980. Gameplay is similar to “Breakout” and “Arkanoid”, you slide a device left and right to bounce objects into the air which destroy a wall.
“Circus Linux!” was programed using the “Simple Direct Media” layer libraries by Sam Lantinga. This means that the game can theoretically run under any environment that the SDL libraries support.
Game Modes:
– One- and two-players
– Two-player cooperative
– Barriers mode
– Bouncy balloons mode
– Clear-all mode
You begin the game with five clowns. When you run out of clowns, your game is over.
