     Alexey Pajitnov (Tetris) later reused this game concept as a game "Color Collision" in "Microsoft Entertainment Pack: The Puzzle Collection" for Windows 9x in 1997, and Game Boy Color in 2000, the games developed by Mir-Dialogue (Nival) and Conspiracy Entertainment respectively.

     @pizzapatch Each of the games has credits in help files. Pajitnov's are Color Collision and Muddle Casino, and Charmer and Fringer in collaboration with Vladimir Pokhilko (RIP).
