Dr. Driller is a clone of Mr. Driller, written in C++, making use of SDL 2.
The original code for this clone was Miss Driller, which was created by Adas in year 2000. Others built upon that to create Drill2x in around 2007.
A large refactor was done, upgrade to SDL 2, more Mr. Driller features were added (crystal blocks, white blocks, death clearing surrounding blocks, upgraded graphics, character selection...).
Notably, it supports local co-op multiplayer - a first for Mr. Driller-like games. (There is a "Battle Mode" in Mr. Driller Drill Land, in which 2 - 4 players can play on one special map, seeing who can find a "gold coin" first, it's not the same).
User guide
Dr. Driller is a fast paced puzzle game with a similar addictive premise and layout to Tetris.
The objective of the game is to drill through various coloured blocks in a downward direction, without being struck by falling blocks from above.
The driller also has an oxygen meter that acts as a time limit, and constantly depletes, which can only be replenished by collecting air capsules.
