I assume that the male plot is simply incomplete, although this didn't seem to be stated anywhere. Also, it's a bit difficult to figure out who the various characters are and how one is allowed to interact with them. Finally, I solved the riddle (if solving the anagram was all that I was supposed to do...) but my answer wasn't accepted.
Why rush to put out a half-working game? I think most people would more readily forgive the extra time you'd spend debugging than the proliferation of bugs here.
Author's Response:
maybe u didn't solve the riddle correctly because if u solve all three riddles, u can interact with liam... *shrugs*
as for the garrick version, it does say it's coming in 2007, when in 2007 i didn't say, and u are correct, it is not done. as for proliferation of bugs, i don't agree with that

There are some pretty severe problems. First, in the original version, the muncher walked from square to square instead of blipping, and a lot of the feeling of the game involved running from the different kinds of monsters. It's just silly now.
Second, I couldn't see all the numbers very clearly -- I ate a "30" because I thought it said "80" -- so I'd suggest you use a bold font.
Author's Response:
well, on my screen resolution (1024x768, which is fairly small) all the numbers are quite clear. secondly, i did try to impliment an actual movement from square to square, but since the scripting for that felt the need to glitch itself to oblivion, i removed it in favor of a working model.
if those were the only problems, did my game really warrant a 1? i mean, couldnt you come up with something lower, as to make this seem ALL about your issues.

When I start the game the character just falls directly off the bottom of the screen.

Whatever you're using to read the keystrokes is building up a huge backlog so that the game lags several seconds behind the keyboard. At that was at low quality. Fix it.
Author's Response:
^^ get a better computer, or simply click the "x" or "page" and it shouldn't lag.

Use the hitTest method of the cursor symbol instead of a rollOver responder.

"Probably the best claymation I've seen here"
That was considerably higher-quality that most of the claymation that shows up here. in particular, the resolution was decent, I didn't see any obvious skips, there were no hands visible in the picture, and nobody was trying to voice the characters with their mouth directly up to the microphone.
That said, it was still just random acts of violence...
Author's Response:
Wow thanks man.
I worked for about a month and a half on a 36.2 second claymation.
Well... I did do it in small parts.

On the harder difficulty levels, at least 75% of your time is spent with no green balls and no shockwaves, so you do nothing but wait for a shockwave star to show up for a very long time. It's like playing snake with no apples on the screen -- boring! I got to 600 points on insane and gave up because every single thing on the screen was a red ball and nothing changed for over a minute.
Author's Response:
And you vote badly because of that? Its called insane because your suppost to be godly to beat it.

I had so many teachers exactly like that -- idiots who are teaching not because they want to but because they can't do anything else and the low wages have forced schools to cut standards. They deliver incorrect information to little kids with so much self-important pride that you could almost feel sorry for them if they didn't hold near-absolute power over you.

... just like Halo itself. And don't you think it would be a good idea to make it possible to get out of a vehicle once you get in, you know, in case you want to ever get the flag again?
