This is so much fun! Bottom left is a good place to hide. xD

Very cool game ! Despite the fact I saw myself twice (I suppose that I saw one instance of myself from both server and client side), I really enjoyed this game :D

Impressive for 48 hours! Networking is usually a great pain so I give you much respect. Too bad I was the only one playing but I will try again later. Well done!

I followed your journals and was really looking to playing this game!
I've just tested it, and it lauches (I see the levels and the hello message), but then nothing happens! Is your server currently down?
I'm using Firefox and Flash 11.5.

Anyway congrats for coding a networked flash game looking that nice in 72h!

No-one online to play with :'( Multiplayer games are always good fun though, nice job on making it in 72h.

You should consider rating games in large batches so that your game bumps up to the front-page for a short while. That way you'll have some players simultaneously playing, instead of people trickling in one by one.

Sorry for the lack of players, i guess a good idea is to just throw the link on IRC, people generally just check out and you'll have a few minutes of game.

For the game not working, i noticed today that there was a weird bug, it's only client-side and it seems to stop popping at some point if you spam refresh (hopefully).

Really enjoy games like this! The sound is awful, and my double kept appearing though. Overall, a fun game though!

Great fun although I agree level 4 is OP. Nice work on making multiplayer. I like the art style too :)

Cool... Multiplayer is awesome :D

great looking game! i found the movement lagging and sort of bugging out in the latest version of chrome on a mac.

Sorry for the lag, the compensation code is quite naive. I also just moved my computer and so the connection for the holidays which might not help. I'm in europe, if you're american that's no luck :(
