really fun and addicting, on my first try I got 50%, but after playing numerous times I can do 93%

Managed to get to 76% after many, many playthroughs, before getting bored. Very cute concept though.

What does Tom Sennet have against turtles, though?

Long Division! *hearts*

@Tei: you choose 64 bit, now live with it. Honestly, if you really really want 64 bits, with Linux you have chroot or the beta flash player 10 (which does have 64bit version on Linux) – and many of the “windows only” executables do work with Wine. I’m not a Linux fanboy and this is pretty offtopic here, but just wanted you to know. Btw the game is really fun :)

40% then 50%.

Lol.

@Tei: seriously, you’re giving this tiny indie project a hard time for requiring a newer version of Flash than you have (a version that’s been out for months, and that is free to download, and would take you under a minute to install)?

What about every other game that’s discussed on this site, which are mostly Windows-only executables? You can’t enjoy most of those on a Mac or a Linux machine. Should we wag our fingers at these other game developers too?

I keep my users updated to the latest versions of flash, otherwise it’s a security concern. (Well, still is, but you know what I mean…)

Bhazor: Windows 64 bits is a good OS, as It can run both 32 and 64 bits stuff. But If you run a 32 bits browser in a 64 bits OS, you have in memory 32 and 64 bits versions of libraries. It takes more memory that it sould need. But again, thats is in Windows 64, and not everybody runs Windows 64. Fact is… on the internet, you don’t know what the next dude will run. Maybe a netbook with 800×600 resolution, maybe a Mac, maybe Linux, maybe Windows CE, whatever… so you sould use the standards, and if that is imposible, use technology widespread enough. And no, the latest of the latest version of Flash is not widespread enough. There will be always lots of people withouth flash, or with a old version of flash. Using the latest mean these people are banned from using your stuff for not reason at all. I can understand avoiding Flash 4, because it was before scripting was stable, and stuff. But jumping from Flash 9 to the next? WTF?…

I think the kicking-the-can one is my favourite.

What’s the goal of the bird/platform/youtube one?

Bhazor: that means that you lose the advantages of 64-bit technology though. Not for the whole system, but for the browser. Admittedly not that many people I know take up over 4 GB of space with Mozilla, but the memory’s not the only thing. Add to that very poor support on notWindows and it’s a very poor product indeed. I can hardly wait for a good, properly optimised version of Gnash. In fact, proper cross-platform video support in HTML would be nice, rather than reliance on Flash nonsense. In fact this game and “Today I die” were slightly marred by poor Flash for Linux from Adobe.

But you said a 64bit OS not a 64bit browser.

Bhazor: You probably are playing a 32 bits version.

Well I’m using Vista 64bit and downloaded the latest version and it works dandily.
So shut up.

As for the game I’m not so impressed. Not as funny as Warioware or as varied as some other 5 second flash games.

I give this game C% out of 5 thumbs.
