[PIMP] Peperami

New site for the famous sausage, the game therein is pretty simple, but you do actually get a chance of winning something

www.fanimal.co.uk
(currently, pop-up blockers mess with some parts of the site)

Man! I love the presentation and style of the whole site. That sausage is an annoying little bugger, though.

EDIT: For us US of A-er, can you explain who this guy is, and did he make a bad call in a game to get the verbal abuse?

Thanks, I was working with a pretty good team, I just did the AS

I'm not into football at all, so I didn't really know who he was either. Do a google search for "jeff winter referee" - he has made some controversial decisions, afaik.

Where's the game? The site looks nice, but if a person can't even find a game when they know there's one there, that's bad UI design.

Click the middle shirt in the changing room, you should end up in a bar with a tv screen.

I'll admit I am bit of a usability nut, but this site is more on an experience than anything else. I forgave the interface design.

am I missing something, it loads then the screen goes black, leaving the volume control interface and some links at the bottom

after that, whenever click on the screen, a pepperani guy flies into the screen with an empty black background

Yo. Thanks for letting me know, sounds like a bug. Can you let me know your specs/platfrom?
I think this has happened before on a slow connection, but I can't replicate it.

firefox 1.5.0.2
3.2GHz pentium 4 PC
probably a T1 connection here

having refreshed it a few times now, it seems to load a section then go black (apart from the bottom navigation). Each time I refresh, it then displays the section it was previously loading and will get hung up on the next part to be loaded - almost like it won't display a part til it is cached.

I've had a similar issue when previously loaded xml is cached and is lost before the file is loaded resulting in a blank screen if the parsed xml was meant to trigger events, is that a possibility?

I had exactly the same thing, that's why I didn't post ( Didn't want to post a "It sucks" post for the sake of it ).

Firefox problem perhaps ?

Squize.

Interesting....I've tested the site with similar specs in three different locations, firefox is my browser of choice, so it's been tested more extensively with FF than any other browser. Are either of you using an older version of the player? It's all flash8, but there should be a sniffer. Anyway thanks for the heads-up, I'll let the important people know :-)

Yep, F8 mate. Sorry, I know what a pain in the arse it is when somethings live and there's a problem.

Squize.

Yup, it is, moreso because I haven't been able to replicate the bug. The site has exhibited some strange behaviour in safari, and on very slow connections, but otherwise I haven't been able to break it.

It's all fun and games in the end.

he he nice work JC. had a few problems myself getting there but ive been waiting years for a ref abuse sim. :D

P

nice site...
loads a bit slow though, and I'm on a fairly quick broadband connection.

the pong style game was quite sluggish while the other game was loading. The ref game though is fun!

Hilarious :) I kept trowing those 'fanimals' to the wall :D
Cool sounds also! very nice

I think we've nailed the bugs that we had before. The user stats seem to suggest that its all working. 16k played so far :-)

hiterama. did the rounds on our cc all list :p you're famous JC

All good for me in FF. Looks great mate, what agency you at?

Cheers dude, I'm at AKQA in farringdon

Ah cool cool, tell Ivar that Matt B from Dare says hi =)
