A good game, but it gets a bit repetitive after a while; it’s best to take the levels in 10 level chunks at most. The powerup design wasn’t the best and some of the levels feel like they take *forever* to finish (especially the ones with cabins), but that’s really all the bad I can say. It’s not amazing, it’s not bad, but I wouldn’t pay for it.

The game has a level that looks like it was inspired by Mechwarrior, and that was enough to let it take some space on my computer. :p

Good for you.

Ugh! It was kind of fun, but I went to play it a few minutes ago and it started locking up. The 3-finger salute did nothing, and eventually it blue-screened. Then during the blue screen I heard the video card fan spool up like a jet engine on takeoff. I held down the power button and eventually it turned off.

When I turned it back on, my video was having all sorts of problems. I was getting sparklies – random pixels all over the display being the wrong color & changing. The video card must have severely overheated. It appears to have cooled down now – hopefully there’s no permanent damage.

I’ve uninstalled that game. No more Alawar games for me.

“How do I activate it the right way to make it a full version? Everyone here likes this 2 thumbs up.”

Well it’s too late for this game, and it’s not worth doing for today’s game, but I’ll tell you anyway:

Step #1 – Unzip folder
Step #2 – Click “Activate”.
Step #3 – Click “Setup”.
Step #4 – If it’s an Alawar game, uninstall it.

Lockett,

You activated it wrong. You still have half an hour left to do it right. (to get full version)

How do I activate it the right way to make it a full version? Everyone here likes this 2 thumbs up.

well, i tried it out on my pc, it’s 2.7ghz processor with over a terrabyte of storage, a gig of ram, and should have been able to run it…but the game was very slow and unresponsive, even in window mode.
so i can;t give this one a good rating…in fact, i uninstalled it.
thanks anyways GAOTD…
on a slightly better equipped gaming style machine it probably rawks, but not on mine.
peace.

I saw a comment about someone not liking the moving screen. Different strokes for different folks I guess. I like the moving screen. It enhances the game play in my opinion. My son played through level 12 easily and wished there was an option for faster game play.

I like this game! Sortof similar to Aquaball, but in my opinion, this one is more fun. I like the way the ball moves in this game better somehow. Funny, I thought I was pretty good at it. Then my son got on here and got the maximum points allowed in the first 4 levels, but went way up in points after that. He was able to finish the levels faster too, plus got a bunch of awards. I didnt do that bad, but he showed me that a person doesnt have to lose at it either. The way the ball comes back towards the paddle is more funner also too. Alawar made this game more better than Aquaball, and I still likes Aquaball!
