Bean Machine

A Columns clone with nice backgrounds.The default language is German, so you better first start BeanConfig.exe to change it into English ;)

Like in Dr.Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, it's your target to stack beans on the playground and to combine them in such a manner that they disappear and give you points. Such a combination needs at least 4 connected beans of the same color, but diagonally connections don't count.

The game has 3 game modes:
* Free play
As the name suggest this is an endless game mode for one player. You can stack beans as long as you want or until you're game over. You collect points and advance levels (higher level means faster bean falling) and in the end you can (if you were good enough) enter the hiscore list.
* Split screen
The most addictive mode of the game where two players fight against eachother. Each player has it's own playground and if one player has a bean combo, the other one becomes a black bean dropped onto his field that can more or less block his current action. The game is over as soon as one player looses.
* Story mode
In this mode you play a timeline through all the scenarios and in every scenario you have a given amount of time to eliminate an also given amount of beans (the ratio between those get's harder as you advance). If you handle that, you advance to the next scenario, and if you make it through all scenarios you can enter your name into the hiscore for the storymode.
