You can take or drop gems from the bottom of the screen to make gems disappear. If you move gems in order to create a vertical alignment of at least three gems of the same colour, they will burst and start a chain reaction with all neighbouring matching gems. The aim is to prepare some other chain reactions while the first gems are bursting, in order to make a combo and send lines to your opponent. You lose when some gems reach the bottom of the field. | Krystal Drop 0.6 | new | Krystal Drop |

Rating:</em> <font color="#ffff80" size="-1">(not yet rated)</font> <p> <em>Description:</em> Simulation construction tools <p> <em>Changelog since 0.3.1:</em> <ul> <li>Fix a compile problem for cygwin. <li>Updated/tweaked doxygen documentation in several areas. <li>Moved quite a bit of low level model management and "state" management code from FlightGear into SimGear and did a substantial amount of restructuring and dependency clean up in the process. Created a "scene" subdirectory with sub-subdirectories for material management, basic model and model animation management, sky rendering, and low level loaders for the "TerraGear" tile object format. <li>Removed support of the flat shaded and non-textured material property varients. You can still do these things, but extra states are no longer set up automatically. <li>Removed 3d clouds from the defaChanges since 0.3.1:ult build ... these need a maintainer or better yet, a complete plib-based rewrite. <li>Moved the FlightGear sound effect manager code over to SimGear. <li>Updated the cloud layer surface to better follow the inverted bowl shape. <li>Much work on cloud/sky coloring, and also much work on sunset/sunrise coloring. <li>Fixed an obscure bug in cloud texture loading which caused each cloud texture to be loaded 5 times. Ouch! <li>Various class and function renaming to make them better fit into the standard SimGear naming scheme. <li>Added some additional convenience functions to the SGPath class. <li>Upgraded the distributed version of metakit. <li>FreeBSD fixes. <li>Irix fixes (better STL/ISO C++ header support.) <li>Mingwin fixes. <li>Better MacOS support <li>MSVC fixes. </ul> | SimGear 0.3.3 | updated | SimGear |

It is developed under the terms of the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html">GNU General Public License</a><p> FlightGear has already sceneries for the whole Earth ( see <a href="http://www.flightgear.org/Downloads/world-scenery.html">here</a> ) but usually, available free data are too coarse to make realistic views of the world, especially for land outside the USA. <p> The basic idea is to use scan of commercial maps and other bitmap data to help users to draw features on top of the image layer. Features includes static 3D objects (buildings for instance), height (hypso) curves, land use contours, roads, railways and powerlines, water area or streams. | FlightGear Scenery Designer 0.2.1 | new | FlightGear Scenery Designer |
