People forget, it happens, just move on with those that are putting fourth the effort to play and try.

okay i understand that gun, but I don't see a point in forking out so many credits to a tournament that nobody gave a **** to participate in. It's quite irritating really.

**Tasselfoot** · 04-24-2008, 01:12 PM

pick more original games? curveball has been around since before i started flash gaming, which was 2002.

Not everyone participates in tournaments for credits. I personally enter for the competition and to test how good I am against others near my skill level. The credits are a mere bonus, that and I never quite finish well enough to earn credits, but tournaments aren't really about credits, at least to me that is. I'm enjoying myself in this tournament, even though I'm stuck against on of the most kick ass flash players, I don't care, its fun, thanks for running this

Well there's only two hours left so start posting ****, oh and by the way Cock, lol, i haven't said it yet.

Commandersa1 · 04-24-2008, 11:21 PM

I hope I made it in time.

**sumzup** · 04-25-2008, 12:04 AM

yah...had a 23k score, but didn't get a SS...oh well

**Gun92** · 04-25-2008, 01:00 AM

See mark, ye of little faith :P

We get eliminated? Hmmm I should read things more often

**Tasselfoot** · 04-25-2008, 02:37 AM

this was 1st attempt... so had multiple -500 on a bunch of levels to figure out how to do them.

concept isn't that original... game isn't halfway bad, except that the hit detection between objects and the gold balls is AWFUL. trying to speedrun through levels is basically impossible, because the movements of the objects are fluid instead of block by block. so you have to be much farther away from the gold balls than you'd think you do, otherwise you explode. really really frustrating, and quite poor on the developers part.

that's the reason i didn't play through it a 2nd time for a much much higher score. too annoying to deal with the hit detection. not a single other game i've played with this concept (a few of them are miniclip games, even... acno's energizer comes to mind) have had hit detection like this. all the rest make speedrunning much easier, and about doing the level perfectly, not having to overtime your movements to ensure you don't partially clip a gold ball.

**Gun92** · 04-25-2008, 11:05 AM

I agree...this game hurt my head and level 12 is the worst level of the bunch.

**Tasselfoot** · 04-25-2008, 12:19 PM

how many of the 8 are moving on? will play it again if i have to. just really don't want to.

**Gun92** · 04-25-2008, 12:21 PM

That would be helpful information. I just thought it was like, score based some how so who ever has the most at the end wins or what ever.

**Tasselfoot** · 04-25-2008, 12:31 PM

his last tournament was elimination as well. he didn't say it anywhere in this thread... but i figured this would be also.

**Gun92** · 04-25-2008, 01:00 PM

Ah. I wasn't in his last tournament so I guess its good to know now. I'm looking forward to this now

MarkHouseMD · 04-25-2008, 04:43 PM

only 7 of the eight are going to move on

Commandersa1 · 04-26-2008, 01:03 PM

I'm definitely not playing that again. He needs to fix the hitTests or something. That was horrible.

**pmonibuv1** · 04-28-2008, 07:00 AM

not a high score but it will get me into the next round.

**Gun92** · 04-28-2008, 08:45 AM

Hey Tass, did you play that game to go any further then round 15? Just curious to see how far you got if you did, and if you didn't I would understand, lol.

**Tasselfoot** · 04-28-2008, 11:56 AM

hell no. game was awful.
