[Game] Bubbles

Hi,

I was wondering if I could get some feedback on my latest small game.

Game Name: Bubbles
Game Link: Gamestack.org
Game Instructions: Using your mouse you click on bubbles that are floating up.
Game Description: You have 30 seconds to pop as many bubbles as possible.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

Enjoyed, a little too easy in my opinion, only missed three bubbles I think. High Scores didn't work =/ would be nice to maybe have different difficulties or some extra stuff to spice it up some...

Hmm let me double check the highscores.

highscores worked for me

Highscores are back up. Was my mistake in naming a variable wrong :S.

ChaseNYC, were the bubbles just slow rising? (FPS)

Maybe my computer is too fast or maybe both Chase and Trogdor have got really old computers, but I sucked at that game!!:p

I didn't play it for that long (mini-games lose my attention fairly quickly), but in the time that I did, the game kept me entertained I was determined to get a highscore..and obviously gave up not too long later:p. The game's best aspect's imo were the graphics and the originality (cant comment on the sound though, because I had it turned off).

I noticed a bug/mistake: The instructions on the actual web page (not the swf) are for your valentines game.

Viza. Did I ever mention that your the King of Debug?

LOL Anyhow, I figured it out. Trog, you're a genious. I gotta try that for all games of this style. :p

DOUBLE EDIT: PFFT I take it back, Trog, you can't handle my leet skills. 1st, 2nd, 3rd place by 20k. :)

- the font @ the preloader looks shifted in 1/2 pixels. If you use flash 8 make sure to embed them as bitmap fonts.

- maybe some explosive animition on them once you click on a bubble,- like water sparks/drops.

hmm, guess it's a nice enough game. Don't know how you managed to get such a high score pride. I manage to play it through a few time without missing anything and yet I never broke 4000. What am I missing?

Pressing Tab and holding down Spacebar. :) Enjoy.

lol.
Note to self, never key tabbing enabled when making a game that revolves around clicking things.

I thought that's what Trog was doing, but then when I did it, I realized he wasn't, and I was consitantly destroying his scores; hence, leet skills. :p


(Pfft, Viza, did you figure it out before I mentioned it?)

:yikes: ............I almost cried when I first used that.

At first I thought I was just physically tired from footy training and mentally tired from HTML coding, but that's just plain mean :p..Trogdor your a freak, what's your secret??

Mick, you can delete my highscore. I shamefully cheated :p

Viza

EDIT: IP, As I said I was mentally and physically drained, but I had no idea you could do that :rolleyes:

I thought you might like that in place of the "Not a credit card." :p
I think I'll take my respective role as:

King of not turning over a game in 4 months

Yep. It has a nice ring to it. :thumbsdow

ho hoo, em that's great!

Thanks for testing it everyone.

Ill have to go and disable the tab keys on the movieclips. (i never tested that), thus I have delete all of the score for users that cheated (sorry :))

That's whack.

I like it, it's fun. My only problem with it is that it's kind of hard with a touchpad...

Eastwinn,

Thanks for the comments. Yeah I always bring a mouse to use with my laptop. The touch pad sucks for games :D

It's very addictive. It's very good, graphics are great, I can't see how someone got 4000 and above, though. As there weren't enough bubbles to burst to get that figure.

Feedback:
I'd allow people to submit hi-score by pressing enter.
I would put link to hi-scores on 'submit page.
You might consider showing the scores on the game, but I understand your marketing around making it go to the site page.

All in all it's a good game. Potential to develop it further.
