@GhostlyGamer the sweeper bars are actually quite graphically intensive (for Flash) and can cause slowdown especially if your browser has other windows with Flash objects in them. Glad you still liked it though!
@darkdragon09 thanks! I've set up quite a few stats for adding medals but it's up to the Kongregate chaps to decide to implement them.
@zukke thanks! I guess the ultimate inspiration is Qix since all the games that influenced me are influenced by Qix!
@oink I think you must have had a very lucky game with the shockwaves as there's a 1 in 4 chance of getting it. It's a good point though I shall look at limiting the number of times it appears.
@alegab you're quite right there are many games in the Qix/Filler genre.
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to play and comment!
@bibliomancer if the little yellow dot you control hits the bar or any of the bad guys then you lose a life. You have to avoid them.
@Choas275 the game takes elements of Filler, Zolyx, Xonix and the "mouse avoider" games. Look for a game on here called Qilox to see what Zolyx is like!
Thanks acidDICA - that truly is an amazing oversight and I'm suitably embarrassed! I guess I've just been on automatic testing the shop which has been in place for some time. It's fixed now and I'll consider making the coins momentarily invincible. That's exactly the reason why the "1" ball takes two shots to kill. Originally "1"s would be destroyed on the first shot - imagine how annoying that was!
Thanks again for everybody's comments. I've uploaded a new version that fixes the issue with the keyboard. I'm having trouble with both the chat and the high scores myself but having implemented Kongregate's code I appear to have no more control over it :-/
Thanks to everyone for trying out my game! I've just uploaded a new version with keyboard support and high scores! Have fun and keep the suggestions coming!
