I found the game a little frustrating, and it does have a learning curve, but hey that's what makes it challenging... I love it! Great game, nice graphics, lots of fun animations... no it's not bad for a challenge at all.
Haha, well I'm not sure about which handbook you're referring to, but I coded this game from scratch, and photoshopped the graphics from three old screenshots of the original game. Yeah, it took me about five hours to do it so I know it leaves a lot to be desired... but at least the code (3 class files and a flash file) is original.
Okay... So there's a MUSIC mute option, but I want to mute the SOUND FX too... it's annoying when I'm trying to listen to my own music. Any game of this caliber should have those options, at least on the main menu.
Nice Game! I love the sound effects and the maze is harder than ever. Couldn't figure out the billiard ball room at all, but the new mouse holes and letters are neat improvements. Good fun.
I like this update... with newer-looking graphics, and the larger 'boss' ships. The gameplay does seem a bit linear, with no levels and just a matter of time before they destroy the asteroid. I would say the standard feature of power-ups is needed to make it a little more interesting. It might also be cool if the rocks bounced around off the walls once it broke up, too. Robots, lol :)
I think the framerate is a little fast. Also frustrating how the frog can only face one direction and does not have any animation... it seems lifeless.
