Greatly improved over last Orb 2 version... It would be nice to have sound effects on various events... Overall excellent game...

I for one like the music, you guys are just critics. But Coolspeed has a point on the blocks (not the music) it would be awesome if they cracked when they were hit. 4/5

The music is annoying; the blocks appear too fast, you didn't add an in-game score (you only see it when you lose); why sometimes orbs don't explode when they touch the blocks?, and it's too dark for me. Also the poor yellow explosions don't match with the graphics of the game. I liked the original better. 3/5

There's one thing that's really missing from the first one; blocks that appears should be bigger first, so I can see when they are appearing. In this one, they appear almost instantly, and I almost always die by a newly appeared box.

This version looks a lot better and the exploding blocks means having to use more of the screen (which is good). The stationary orbs don't add too much and could be dropped or changed (maybe they speed up the orbs? upgrade them? lengthen the tail?) Also, techno is dead (even more so when repeated) and you have no other sound effects; weakens the overall presentation. Good stuff, however.

Yes, perfect. Except maybe make the blocks a little bit bigger and it would be cool if they started cracking and crumbling as the orbs hit them so you know approximately how much more the block can take. That would be simply awesome!

game can be improved, i think orbs should be a little faster, and many many go thru the blocks -_- kinda lame about that, also blocks are not quite delimited, so sometimes when i try to do maneuvers between the blocks, although it seems i dont hit them, it marks i did o_O so i dunno... i like the first one better.. 3/5

Nice, much better than the first, which was very hard most times, good improvements, looks pretty and decent music, no complaints, job well done ;)

There are indeed several imprevements, although colision detection works better in the first game. It seem to me that the amount of time the bonuses remain active is less than in the first game, leading to really lower scores.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The improvements are definitely there. The graphical interface DOES look neat and nice in the eyes, the suggestion to show the score during the game has been followed, and the gameplay additions are creative and do add fun. The bugs really hurt, though. The collision detection is clumsy, as I've see not only MANY orbs passing right through the blocks, but right through my cursor as well, and I've ran out of blocks twice. It's a shame, because those bugs harm the gameplay very much. Fix them, and this will be considerably better than the first one. Good thinking about the customisation, as well.

As I play more, there are some more issues. I've got orbs going THROUGH boxes. Not just "on the side" and going through the field, but right down the center. This happened multiple times in various games.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
think this is much improved in everything. 1 problem. out of the ton of times i playedf, this only happened once: i ran out of blocks and a new one DID NOT pop up. 5/5
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Not much that hasn't been said already really. It's a pain when you play... and then run out of boxes! Game over man!

And also, the new graphical improvements are total lag bombs :( Doesn't have to have good graphics to be entertaining.... *goes playing Orb Avoidance 1*
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
...what improvements?
The glow on the blocks make it hard to target orbs. I died two times because they went open field on the blocks... take out the glow. Music's good. ...exploding blocks? As someone said it has a bug that happened to me just once running out of blocks... Sentence: I like first one better :(

this game is the first of my favorite games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i like very much it :):):)::):):):):):):):):):):):):):

It does look better with the graphics but it does seem harder to pinpoint the orbs to the blocks (and I mean that its harder to see if they go straight at it).
Would say 3/5 but update wise and gameplayexpanding wise its gonna be a 4/5.
Music is better too.

I liked it, but it has some bug on it. Sometimes there´s no blocks to destroy the orbs, and you have orbs behind you, this force you to lose the game. It happened 3 times to me. Really anoying, besides that, it´s a great update of the 1rst one.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Perhaps not as good as the last one, becuase you die easier around the blocks and white orbs. I like the graphics, though. 4 stars.

The first game with the block collision detection ROCKED, i mean you died when you ACTUALLY hit the block and not when you're like a meter away..

Man, the first one was so much better, for some reason, I keep running into what would clearly be squares in the 1st one (which are rounded shapes of some kind).
It's better graphics-wise, but its so confusing its annoying.. >_<

Here's a bug for ya. After a while, there are so many orbs and colours and what not, that it doesn't really register orb/block touches from the lag. I was just moving my mouse directly over a block and all the orbs hit it, and the colours lagged it. I had to leave my cursor on the block for like 1/2 seconds for it go to, oh, u touched a block. Good...but the first one was better.

Since others have had the same sort of problems, I'm calling foul on this one. Balls quite often failed to hit blocks, sailing through them instead, and the upgrades manage to kill me fully 1/2 of the time I guide a ball into them. Also: comet tails not attractive. IMHO. The original both looked and played better. W-hat?
