BubbleGrow's only dependency is SFML, which, along with only using the standard library, makes this game cross-platform across Windows, Linux, and OS X.  It's been tested on both 32 and 64 bit platforms with no performance issues (even ran it on an old dual core Pentium from 2007 with embedded graphics). BubbleGrow takes advantage of OpenMP to support multithreading up to as many cores as you can give it (assuming you have up to 1 thread per player, or up to 16 threads for default gameplay). The beauty of OpenMP is that it won't prevent compilation on compilers that do not support it, since it only uses preprocessor pragmas which can be ignored.
