Does anybody remember this game?

Archived from groups: alt.comp.freeware.games (More info?)

I downloaded a game from somewhere probably about a year ago. It was a
kind of a vaguely breakout-y kind of game, but you navigated through
"rooms" and the blocks you hit and destroyed were different colors, and
you had to hit certain color-changing blocks to change your color to
match the color of the block you wanted to destroy, or it was
ineffective against the block. I have no idea where it went, but I
really enjoyed it, and I get bored easily with lots of computer games,
and I'm trying so very desperately to find it again.

Does this ring a bell with anybody? I'd be delighted to find it again.

An uber-lurker here :-).

Just for your info, there is also a Frozen Fruits 2, and a prequel or
easier/kiddies version of Frozen Fruits called Summer Bound. Oh and another
one called Bound Around ... but you have to pay for that (all by the same
author :-) ).

Frozen Fruits : www.blueskied.com/fruits.htm

Frozen Fruits 2 : www.blueskied.com/fruits2.htm

Summer Bound : www.blueskied.com/summer_bound.htm

If you're interested in Bound Around, just go to the main Blue Skied page
.... but these three should keep you busy for a while :-)

Best wishes

Jenandh
