Puzzle game called Puzzletube by theZiz is now on fremantle extras-devel. Download size is more than 10M. Optified.

Controls:
Menus: arrows + Enter
Gameplay: arrows to move + 'A' to swap + enter to menu + backspace to pause
Browsing highscores: 'q' + 'e'

(Controls are mimicking gamepad controller with 'start'/'select', shoulder buttons etc.)

Game:
Swap places of 'stones' to get four same colour in a block, then every connected same colour stones are removed and scored.

Make it faster:
Game runs ~15...22 fps with default settings.
Settings -> Stone quality: Flat (almost double fps)
Settings -> Stars : Off

It is possible to reach constant 59 fps (excluding exploding when it drops to 35 fps at worst case).

Check video (N900): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOCe7gafd2M
And there are many more video with better quality and better gameplay.

Upstream and source code: https://github.com/theZiz/puzzletube
*Saving directory changed to /home/user/.puzzletube
*Not using system's libSDL-mixer

Goal: Not row, but block of four (and then every connected same colour tile are removed)
Control: arrows to move and 'A' to swap places.

Start with only couple of colours and try to figure how to make combos. Really speaking I do not know how to make good score =)

It works, but at 15~22 FPS.

And it crash sooner or later once game start. usually 3~6 breaks then all gone, beside, this game seems consume much Power than normal full-load games.

It might miss some dependency, but I can't figure what it is. Start xterm and write:
Code:
cd /opt/puzzletube
./puzzletube

This is normal. If you want more, tune graphic settings. E.g 'Stone quality=Flat' will double the speed.

I haven't seen crashing, and yes, it is critical. Game is using 3D-graphics and plays ogg files, they use much power.

There are rumours of new version, let see...
