Patch for v1.1: If you experience problems with paintcans missing the target and stopping the game, download the patch for versions v1.1 and v1.14b: http://sfgames.clicksplat.com/download/bin/games/Emul114Patch.exe
The installer installs v1.14 now.

A 1-player puzzle/action game, where your job is to stop the rising tide of coloured blocks. How do you do this, you may ask? Well... with exploding paintcans. Apparently the best way to dispose of blocks is to drop an exploding paintcan of the same colour next to it. Of course, the explosion will affects nearby blocks, and the more blocks you destroy in one go, the more points you get!

There are 9 powerups to help you destroy the tower of blocks, but as you destroy more blocks the tower will rise faster - you have to be quick if you don't want to lose!

5 game modes offer different methods of play, and there are no less than 19 high score tables for you to compete against your own score or other people's on the Internet. (Provided by V-Cade Remote)

7 music files are included, and you can add your own MP3s or tracker modules. The Emulsion Music Pack contains 7 more music files which were omitted from the game's installer to reduce download time. Download the Emulsion Music Pack from

All right, funny game! It's really hard to keep your score or gain points. But Nice idea and well done! How did you do the color-changing-thing? thumbs up for you!

How to keep the score? Don't destroy the cracked blocks! (I suggest you read the readme file, as it has a Quick-Start guide.) The colour-changing thing was made with the help of the Maths Army Knife extension, created just to help me make this game :P

Issue with score tables fixed - it was caused by typos on the VCR side.

This game is the most confusing game in the world. Blocks keep apprearing, but if you try to destroy them, you lose points. How are you supposed to gain points if you lose points trying to survive?! This game is also filled with so many bugs that I can't even count them.

Quoth the installer: "Although Emulsion has been tested, there may be bugs and issues unknown to us. We remind you that you use this software at your own risk, and that if you experience any problems with our software please email us so that we can either fix the bug or warn users about it." I haven't got any emails yet... Yoshi, if you're losing points, that means you're not playing the game properly. Try reading the instructions. Also, if you say it's filled with so many bugs, please email me with each bug that's not in the readme (there are 3 that I've found). As for the paintcans not hitting, I thought I fixed that, but as it never happens for me it's hard to fix...
