I can see 'em, and try use them, but the rotten little snot always does his own thing -- and when he's done, he smiles about it, even if it's only a few metres. Why I oughtta... Grrrr!

This is a good one -- took me 27 mins which I'm sure isn't very good!

So frustrating until I got things rolling. Solved in about 50 min. Then played again and solved in 2 min. Without calling anyone.

It's not really a repeat-play game though is it?

Ehhh, emm.... "It's a classic!" "Why I remebered when it first came out and... and... I still get a tear in my eye upon finishing the thing..."

Here's a funny pic of a bunny with a pancake on it's head that I've seen on the net and in other forums.

amusing, and there seems to be a little truth in it as well

Another cool one on OML

I like the music in this one

.
My current high score (after three plays) is 2,360,925

1,281,464 after one and it was enough! Is it the music out of one of the Fighting Fantasy games? Nice stuff

1.37 mil after 5-6 plays. How is 2 mil even possible? Lots of purples?

Post by **Ameena** » Sat May 31, 2008 6:56 pm

For that score, I believe I only missed one yellow (my end total was 79 so maybe there's 80 in total), and hit no reds at all. And probably got every purple that showed up, as well as a fair amount of the normal shapes of course. Maybe I just got lucky

741262 on first run. Nice game idea and realisation!

Post by **Zyx** » Sat May 31, 2008 11:48 pm

I got all the yellows and no red, but I ended up with only 48. And I had to catch several yellows out of the screen.

Post by **Ameena** » Sun Jun 01, 2008 12:25 am

Hmm weird...is it possible you accidentally tagged a red at some point? They shrink your cursor down a significant amount if you touch one.

Post by **Zyx** » Sun Jun 01, 2008 1:42 am

I don't think so. I played again and took a red: there's a big message telling you about the event, so I couldn't have missed.

Post by **Gambit37** » Sun Jun 01, 2008 1:43 pm

I misunderstood-- I thought it meant ONLY collect yellow and not red and ignore everything else. I got a rubbish score as a result....

Post by **Ameena** » Sun Jun 01, 2008 6:35 pm

I thought that myself to begin with, then noticed my points were going up when I was hitting the blue/green shapes as well, so started grabbing them too.

While not something I've found as such (seeing as I've made them myself) here's a couple neat videos if you like fractals:
