Tubes v1.6 from Chris Hodges is a pipemania style game with extras -description below from the developer.

This is yet another pipelining game, in which you simple must build a long pipeline using randomly chosen tube-parts. In addition, there's a narrow time limit and of course most of the tubes do not come in that order you are actually hoping for. Erroneous placed tubes can be destroyed using the right mousebutton but as nothing is free in life, this will cost you 5 seconds of your valuable remaining time.

When the time has run out or you've placed all the tubes, that were available in this level, the water begins to flow. If you have set the tubes 0 correctly the water will flow through a certain amount of pipes before it runs out. According to the stage this amount be sufficient or not. If not, the game is over.

Sometimes some tubes are already placed at the begin of the level. Using these tiles will score you extra points (they count the same as loops). However, if they aren't used, they are fixed to place and cannot be pushed by the bulldozer.

After each completed level, you can grab a few more points by kickin' unused tubes from the screen using a bulldozer. This bulldozer can only push but not pull tubes. Quit this section either with the escape key or the right mouse button. For this bonus-game, there's NO time limit.

To grab another big pile of points, there are two more bonus games.

In the Shuffle part, the screen is totally filled with tubes, which can be shifted to the left or right row wise or up or down column wise. It is a very tricky thing, but if you want to get a higher score, why not try as best as you can? ;-) One warning: Watch the whole screen when shuffling the tiles and check from time to time, if your pipeline is ok, and please keep track of the remaining time!

The other bonus game is a kind of 'Tetris' or better: Tubetris. Tube parts are falling from top of the screen to the bottom. Move the falling tube to the left or the right and try to build some funny pipelines. When the time is over or all tubes have been used up, the water starts to flow from each
water container at the bottom of the screen.
