I gave up all games in '96. Thanks for sending me back to a 12 step meeting!

That game ran out of gas quickly.

You think I would be a natural at this, but, no.

I've always said the Leaky Gas Team has an unfair advantage..
I enjoyed this more.

Is it me, or is the degree to which farting helps you gain altitude really inconsistent?

Either way, I love that I got to type that sentence today.

That is great. Farting is always funny.

I demand that a movie of this be made. I also demand that it be directed by Michael Mann and star a drop-dead-serious Jason Patric.

You can't just rip one long one after another. You have to pause and let him save it up. They really should reflect this in his look somehow.

As Gary has suggested, it would be just fantastic if your could see his little farty face, frowning with determination!

Whose ass is it, and why is it farting?

Ask not for whom the ass farts.

Lately, I’ve considered the idea of having him fade-in/out and sweat a little to indicate when you are really tapped and shouldn’t try to fart so soon.
That level 50 looks somewhat difficult!

Sometimes deliberately dying on the screens with the extra life is useful.

Missed opportunities: Instead of "Start" it should totally say, - well, duh - something else. And why can't I gas out and stun the enemies?

Also, I can totally do this after a giant burrito and/or broccoli and cheese omlette.

Inventer's notebook entry #27,974: Pulse jet underpants. Malarky or effective way? Asbestos or Nomex? Bicycle propulsion for fatasses? New extreme sport - high velocity fart-lighting? Buttplug option? Whistle tips? Specially formulated prepackaged food-tie in for maximum gas production? Call patent attorney!

Played through the whole thing without realizing it. Thanks for the link!

Incidentally, has anyone figured out why there's a "duck" command even available?

Where's the baked bean super fart feature?
posted by danep at 5:06 AM on June 20, 2008

There should be an 'over-fart' function, a state in which the little guy has farted too much, too quickly. Then he poops and can't manage a fart again for a short time. That way you'd have to deal with your flatulence more carefully.

Also, use of these farts as a deterent to the paper plane-throwing kitty or the stilt-walking spike-fish might be nice.

Could we get some contextual camoflage? Maybe a taser? A GPS PDA and a zip-line? The voice of Michael Ironside for the little farter?

Fun, but it made my wife and kids in the next room pause the tivo and come ask -- from the other side of the door -- if I was OK.
