# Soap Bubbles



[Cette page en français.](LISEZMOI.md)



A game with bubbles to explode before they explode on their own on the screen.



The bubbles grow by joining with the ones they touch until they explode. You have to get rid of them first. The score is calculated according to the size of the bubbles destroyed.



The game can be played with a mouse and finger or stylus on a touch-sensitive device.



The initial version of the game was developed following an example coded for the [Delphi FMX Game Snippets](https://fmxgamesnippets.developpeur-pascal.fr/) project in April 2021 and subsequently evolved to be integrated into a project using the [Gamolf FMX Game Starter Kit](https://fmxgamestarterkit.developpeur-pascal.fr/) since 2025.



This code repository contains a project developed in Object Pascal language under Delphi. You don't know what Delphi is and where to download it ? You'll learn more [on this web site](https://delphi-resources.developpeur-pascal.fr/).



## Using this video game

## Source code installation



To download this code repository, we recommend using "git", but you can also download a ZIP file directly from [its GitHub repository](https://github.com/DeveloppeurPascal/SoapBubbles).



This project uses dependencies in the form of sub-modules. They will be absent from the ZIP file. You'll have to download them by hand.



* [DeveloppeurPascal/AboutDialog-Delphi-Component](https://github.com/DeveloppeurPascal/AboutDialog-Delphi-Component) must be installed in the ./lib-externes/AboutDialog-Delphi-Component subfolder.

* [DeveloppeurPascal/Delphi-Game-Engine](https://github.com/DeveloppeurPascal/Delphi-Game-Engine) must be installed in the ./lib-externes/Delphi-Game-Engine subfolder.

* [DeveloppeurPascal/Gamolf-FMX-Game-Starter-Kit](https://github.com/DeveloppeurPascal/Gamolf-FMX-Game-Starter-Kit) must be installed in the ./lib-externes/Gamolf-FMX-Game-Starter-Kit subfolder.

* [DeveloppeurPascal/librairies](https://github.com/DeveloppeurPascal/librairies) must be installed in the ./lib-externes/librairies subfolder.



## Documentation and support



I use comments in [XMLDOC](https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/XML_Documentation_Comments) format in Delphi to document my projects. They are recognized by Help Insight, which offers real-time input help in the code editor.



I regularly use the [DocInsight](https://devjetsoftware.com/products/documentation-insight/) tool to enter them and check their formatting.



Documentation is exported in HTML by [DocInsight](https://devjetsoftware.com/products/documentation-insight/) or [PasDoc](https://pasdoc.github.io) to the /docs folder of the repository. You can also [access it online](https://developpeurpascal.github.io/SoapBubbles) through the hosting offered by GitHub Pages.



Further information (tutorials, articles, videos, FAQ, talks and links) can be found on [the project website](https://soapbubbles.gamolf.fr) or [the project devlog](https://developpeur-pascal.fr/soap-bubbles.html).



If you need explanations or help in understanding or using parts of this project in yours, please [contact me](https://developpeur-pascal.fr/nous-contacter.php). I can either direct you to an online resource, or offer you assistance in the form of a paid or free service, depending on the case. You can also contact me at a conference or during an online presentation.



## Compatibility



As an [Embarcadero MVP](https://www.embarcadero.com/resources/partners/mvp-directory), I benefit from the latest versions of [Delphi](https://www.embarcadero.com/products/delphi) and [C++ Builder](https://www.embarcadero.com/products/cbuilder) in [RAD Studio](https://www.embarcadero.com/products/rad-studio) as soon as they are released. I therefore work with these versions.



Normally, my libraries and components should also run on at least the current version of [Delphi Community Edition](https://www.embarcadero.com/products/delphi/starter).



There's no guarantee of compatibility with earlier versions, even though I try to keep my code clean and avoid using too many of the new ways of writing in it (type inference, inline var and multiline strings).



If you detect any anomalies on earlier versions, please don't hesitate to [report them](https://github.com/DeveloppeurPascal/SoapBubbles/issues) so that I can test and try to correct or provide a workaround.
