Great Game!
This is a great game. It kind of reminds me of that crash game on retrogade. But did you really have nothing in the library???!?!? How is that possible?! I mean, I'm pretty advanced at actionscript and programming, but that just blows my mind. Great work. No loading time! Yay!
Great game.
Really fun, especially for the size. Good job on the coding.
I haven't been able to get more than 30k, but I'll keep trying. ;)
Awesome
I got 209783
not bad
a bit simple................ what else can i say it's simple.
Excellent Game.
109187, played till I broke 100k, that's good enough for me. And I must say, all of it code, that is incredible. I think it's really amazing because I have tried coding things here and there in various languages and it's not exactly a walk in the park to get something this nice. That got you your graphics and style. I just ignored sound, violence, and humor because those are three things this game was never meant to have. Interactivity would have been higher, but at times when attempting to throw the ball it would very choppy and difficult to release properly. Is this a problem in the code if you try to move the ball too fast, or is my computer causing the frame-skips? Either way it didn't detract too much from the value of the game.
Now, off the game and on to Newgrounds users. As usual, I spent some time reading other's reviews and I ahve found two common lines of thought: That high score is impossible; It's just a rip off of Kitty Cannon. 1st of all, I notice the "impossible high score" rarely, if ever, broke 100k in their scores, so It seems they just suck at the game, or had really bad luck with the booster bubble things. Just your average case of someone unable to do something themselves and therefore calling it impossible. Then there's the other people, complaining about similarities to Kitty Cannon, come on people! This type of game is a genre nowadays. From the Pengu Throws, to the Kitty Cannons, to countless other ones, make peace with it. This game at least has more innovation then ANY of those had. Those you just shoot, or hit, or someway launch whatever you're sending X number of feet. This one you dynamically throw it yourself.
Ok, sorry for getting off the topic of your game and complaining about users, a large number of the people here at newgrounds piss me off to no end. All in all, wonderful game, I can't wait to see more from the likes of you.
THANKS for the in-depth review.
"Those you just shoot, or hit, or someway launch whatever you're sending X number of feet. This one you dynamically throw it yourself."
Precisely, a la 'Spank The Monkey'. The funny thing is, that too many people think Kitten Cannon was the original game in this style, when it blatantly is not.

Yep, they get on my nerves too. Still, with Daily 2nd and Front Page, they can basically shove it up their collective arses.
