These flies have been stalking me. Friday Flash flies, that is.

Um, ok. I got up to about 300 and it didn't really seem to be getting any tougher, at least not at a noticable pace, so I gave up. Anyone willing to tough it out for a while longer and see if it becomes challenging?

And that's a person making the 'zzzzzzz...' noise, is it not?

Boring... Did I win?

And those are definitely mosquitos, not flies.

523 and I got bored... It might be harder if they all didn't follow the same exact flight path at the same speed.

It's like Bubble Bees but without the graphics, music, originality, or the point.

I do like the low-blow jab at mcgraw, though.

Getting a bunch with one swing is pretty satisfying. My best is four.

Just leave them to their own devices for a while and they grow. They can get pretty big.

If you let them bounce back and forth for a long time, then they get HUGE.

I don't think there is an end to this game.

As far as I could tell, there isn't an end. It's not really much of a game.

Mine is literally larger than the swatter.

I was just thinking, I don't get enough bothersome insects in real life.

Any one remember that fly-swatting game that was part of Mario Paint for the NES? That was fun when I was younger.

Arg, I'm stupid, I put a space between "any" and "one" and it's actually for the SNES. And I swear I read over the preview!

Dammit, Debaser, you beat me to the Giant Killer line.

daninnj, when I loaded this game Mario Paint was exactly what popped into my head. "Hmm this is boring, Mario Paint was a much better game!"
