I think I could do a lot better job now that I've learned so much more about bB after that Stacker game.

Stacker 2?

OK, that first version, while has no bugs, isn't the way Stacker is played. I've forgotten how it works, so I had to do some YouTube digging to see the game in action. It should work like this. I haven't checked thoroughly for bugs, so if you find one, please tell me.

I found and fixed some bugs, some new ones may have popped up though, so please tell me if anything is awry.

Man, I have got to get internet back at home!
I really want to try this out.

What's it look like compared to the previous version?

Gave it a shot-- thanks for putting it together.
I was able to beat it on the first try.
So, the difficulty as you get farther up needs to get much much harder.

I wonder what could be done with a sequel-- you could probably support a "classic mode" as well as some other sorts of modes.
Maybe you could have a "fat mode" where it has a really wide playfield. Maybe there could be a bird that flies up and down and "interferes" with the stack.

Of course, I would understand if you didn't put too much more into this. After all, my fave is still Plim, for its crazy intro screens.
Just wanted to say it's just neat to see the redone kernel, so thanks for putting that together.
