Bubble Shooter

What is this project?

Bubble Shooter is a classic arcade-style shooting game I built using C++ and OpenGL. The goal is simple and fun: aim, shoot colored bubbles, and match three or more of the same color to clear them from the board before they reach the bottom.

What can you do in the game?

• Aim and shoot bubbles in different directions
• Match three or more same-colored bubbles to pop them
• Clear the board to score points and progress
• Enjoy smooth 2D graphics and physics-based bubble movement

How it was built

The game logic, rendering, and collision detection were all written in C++, while OpenGL was used to handle the graphics — drawing the bubbles, animating their movement, and rendering the game board in real time.

Why I built it

This project was a fun way to practice core game development concepts like 2D graphics rendering, collision detection, and real-time input handling, all while building something simple, playable, and enjoyable from scratch.
