I love the game, but i did want to join the "bad" guys. The inhabitants of that city are a bunch of xenophobes, always whining about refugees spoiling their city and causing crime. And the emerald order seem like nice chaps to me, let's give them back their land! They also have the coolest uniforms.
This is a tricky one...there could well be a REALLY good game hiding in here...but it isn't quite realised, and as a result is a game probably nobody will play. There is, as they say, little between genius and madness.
Detailed how to hit the ball:
1) without touching the mouse button, move your cursor in the direction of the ball you want the cue ball to strike. You'll see a white circle and a line: thats' the direction the ball will take. If you move the circle to touch another ball, you'll also see a yellow line, which is the line of that ball's motion once hit.
2) When you have the line right, hold down the left mouse button. then pull the cursor back towards the cue. you'll see the cue pull back. Let go when you are happy with the strength.
That's it!
so in other words drag towards the target balll first then click, then drag back. and also the white ball at the bottom with the red dot shows where you are striking the cue ball
Quite like the retro feel, and it needs a bit of thinking which is good. The only issue I found was that I would go on a raft, the raft would vanish, and I wouldn't be able to get out of the water! Presumably this is a bug??
