History
The game began around July 1991 as 'BUGS I,' was renamed 'Dr. Mario' by Scott Noecker in mid-1992 to match Nintendo's game of the same name, and received a Linux port shortly after from Ken Corey; development was revived in November 2015 by Grandpa's Code, who updated it to conform to C99 and POSIX.1b.
