Description
To clear this up: (API) in the title refers to Application Program Interface, which in this case means that the entire game (excluding audio) is created on the fly, using Actionscript and Flash's drawing API. Basically, it was designed as a KB Game, and weighs in at less than 100 KB.

How to Play
Click and drag the icons on the right onto bubbles of the corresponding colour • Match the size of the icon to the size of the bubble for higher scores • If the icon is too large for the bubble, the bubble will pop, and your score will drop • If a bubble/icon match is successful, catch the falling bubble in the cart for extra points • Control the cart using the LEFT and RIGHT arrows or A and D • Discard unwanted icons by releasing them anywhere. Don't let them hit the cart, though! • If a bubble escapes, you lose 5 points and 1 Chance. 0 Chances = GAME OVER • Preserve your Chances by simply popping the bubbles before they escape. No penalty • Bubbles will appear, and move, more quickly as levels advance. Scores also get bigger • Survive for as long as you can for a spot on the scoreboard • Press P at any time to PAUSE

fun and original. i have a bit of a problem with there being 4 different red bubbles, some of them i can keep separate, but others i wind up trying, and wasting time and icons. i also get a little frustrated occasionally when i feel like i've correctly tagged a bubble, but i guess it slid out of range, or something, and lose again.
quite cool, though.

I liked this game, but found it quickly got too challenging for me. I hated how sometimes the bubbles would leave the side of the screen in the middle and not come back at all because of the angle or whatever. otherwise good game

Could be fun to play. It says (API), but I don't see integrated high scores though.
