It gets real hard real quick.
I got to 120 after about 10 tries, but that was pretty much dumb luck.

130 first try. I'm gonna move on. Would have liked to have seen some instructions somewhere. That was the hardest part of the game, really - figuring out how to play.

Feels a lot like driving in mad traffic. My 125 points may have more to do with the fact that I live in London than with finger dexterity... Mefites living in Rome or Paris (or any other city renowned for its "thrilling" traffic) will have a massive advantage...

They should really tighten up their pixel maps a bit. You only need to be NEAR an object to make contact with it. This is totally unintuitive visually and always leads to collecting a square and getting hit by the little circles well before you expect that you should.

I've noticed it's much easier for me to just follow my instincts. The less I stop to evaluate the position of the the blue dots, the better I do.
Nasim: agreed.

160 without much thought. Agreed on the bad collision maps.

Okay, so how do you play? And what the hell is the square good for?

square is good for getting. avoid the balls/dots.
145 high score, and I'm done with it.
First game, I went for the ball and died.
oh, and satapher, the points increase by 5.

185!
But then again, maybe it's considered cheating if your flash player is messed up and the game plays at about 1/3rd of the normal speed.

250, with slowdown after 150 or so due to my old computer.

SolarWolf has similar gameplay, but is otherwise far more entertaining than this could ever hope to be. (Not flash, but it is cross-platform.)

best Flash game ever
It is a nice one isn't it? My pathetic ActionScript skills are made pathetically pathetic, as it were, in contrast.
But N isn't flash is it?
It be a Flash projector.

So, is there any way to scrape flash games and play them when you're offline?

here, right-click on this and download it. once it's on your desktop, you should be able to double-click on it and play it by itself. if that doesn't work, open a browser window and drag the swf file into the window.
