Many, many apologies all - it seems a server's settings got changed without our knowledge and broke our game - we had no idea. We are on the case and will report back here when it is fixed! (Response from Playniac)

Another thing *page 3 of the Book of BamBam* Although at first I did find it quite fast... once I knew what the items were about it became okay. I did get the feeling though that it would be better if the pause button didn't have that popup that doesn't allow you to do anything. Would be nice if the pause button simply paused the day and allowed you to spend/manage your money and learn about all the different items in the shop.

Also, with my 15 inch labtop screen the game is too large and it cuts off items with my beloved Firefox. Perhaps a way to make it fullscreen like Afterwind/Trig? No biggie though, I just used Maxthon Cloud Browser with popout feature to make it fit my screen nicely although it didn't stretch. Perhaps it works on I.E. but since I only use I.E. to go to www.firefox.com and download I don't know if it would work ;). Of course now I go around using I.E. entirely by using a download I put on a flash drive lol. anyway, cool game :S highly addictive.

Ugh... the great battle of privacy vs playing a flash game... If you delete your LSO's it will delete your save. Thus all your progress is gone :S. Was rocking with lvl 17 making mucho cash and had 3 dudes making top 3 slots on the hardest race I could do at the time. Had all the store items bought for each of them, their stats maxed out and 2 of those experience packs a piece. Didn't even have to bother with the race perks to win either... barely even had to juke for position with their stats like 650/550 on each one... Was really looking forward to getting my guys up past lvl 26 tonight too lol. Oh well. Was a great game while it lasted lol. If I had anything to add to it I would love to not have the save on local side. My incognito way of browsing teh internetz gets me every time on these local save flash games.

It´s a very nice game and i like it, but it´s way tooooooo easy. Once you know the trick it´s just waiting and booking and waiting again for your hamsters ^^ to level up.

the game is extensive yet, its so accessible. Has original and good idea, but the execution is excellent... the artwork, the gameplay, the planning. This is quality and a beautiful game.
It would be perfect if it supports kindness and love, for a good experience kids could have.

Great game. Hope to see more games like this from you guys. You deliver on my standards in games like this. Please develop more of this kind of game.

Please add the ability (to the ios version as well) to make dicisions while paused. I grew up on games like Panzer General, M.U.L.E. and Empire; I can't think an play at the same :(

The gameplay is really hard to understand. Racing seems very random and arbitrary. A few races in, even at near full energy, my squirrel would fail to place in the top 3 in even the first race. The perception of a complete lack of control over the races really puts me off from playing the game.
Let me make an analogy to a game like pokemon. It's like training your pokemon, beating the first few gyms, and then returning to the original starting area where all the pokemon are level 1 and finding yourself unable to beat them.

I had to reload because the Shop got stucked on the Energy Drink screen and after the Reload all the Enemys are Overpowered 9+ stats each o.O
Not sure what you are describing, since the enemies can't have 9+ stats - they only show as having more of up to 4 dominant stats. This might have happened because your squirrel was low on energy perhaps? Can you message Playniac and say exactly what you did before the shop got stuck? (reply from Playniac)

I gave you your 5 stars.
The interface is really good, and the idea is good as well. I like that there are pause buttons on every screen.
However, as many others have said, before level 16 or so, the levelling is too fast, and after, it is way too slow. In the beginning, it is pretty brutal, as every race you level up, but you don't have enough money to pay the increase in salary and house. On top of that, there is a random event after a few days, which can break your game.
Maybe adding something else as a goal would be good as well, because just making money is not really good enough, especially when you end up making more from the bank then from races. What would be nice, is that the opponents would not be random, but would be people to beat in each race and you would get a medal to be the best in each, or something like that.
Also the last few races are too hard. I was level 24 and tried the last one on the easier setting, and I had to buy all the shop items to win it.

Ok, seriously... I started new 4 times. Why? Because everytime i locked in, my stats of the gamefrom the past days where GONE! I never deleted temps and i never deleted cockies either... This kind of sucks hard, consider this awsome game... So: HOW DOES THIS GAME SAVES THE STATS??? Help!
Hmm - not sure what happened here but thanks for the feedback. We are seeing saves as working fine - does your game save ok if you play a short game and reload? Can you message Playniac and say if you are seeing any other errors or anything else unusual? (reply from Playniac)

Racing is just too unpredictable. Sometimes I hit my boost meter perfectly and nothing happens, sometimes I don't even get the boost meter and my squirrel gets a boost. The colored parts of the track don't seem to do anything. And it seems like squirrel salary increases outpace the increase in their abilities.
The boost meter is to increase the chance of an overtake working (or to resist an attempted overtake). It doesn't give a definite result - depends on other factors too. Salaries are linked to game level. Hope that helps and thanks for playing! (reply from Playniac)

I always give a game time to show its stuff, but after an hour this game completely fails for me.
Unexplained stats, zero training and random performance by the opponents - making the stats, items and budgeting even more unreliable...
Give the stats some meaning
Allow the player to train instead of race.
Make a tutorial of how you expect the player to approach this game, so the player is up and running before facing the dice roll mechanics of the race.
Side note: Change the driver salary to suit their stats, not how many races they win. A driver who regularly loses 4 out of 5 racers and therefore requires you spend most of the winnings on boosts to get them in a ranked position, should not get a salary increase!
Thanks for playing our game! The salary is dependant on game level, rather than race performance. The stats are linked to different tracks... There's a walkthrough here you might find useful: http://playni.ac/irs-walkthrough (reply from Playniac)

I have found a glitch - When you ran out of money for 2nd time (which will be the game over) and then reload the page without starting new game again, you can keep that data, even if you had a negative amount of cash!
Thanks for your note and well noticed! I think it's OK though - you can't really do so much with the negative cash yes, so you ideally want to start a new game? We will investigate though! (reply from Playniac)

This is a really small thing, but there should be a wider spectrum of colors for you emblem. It's hard to make what you want without it. I mean, it's not much, but yeah.

Okay, the whole money system is very confusing. I had more than enough to pay my bills for the month, but was short a few dollars in my checking account, so I withdrew money from savings. That money supposedly went into my cash, where I should have been able to give to my checking, but wasn't able to. Now I'm overdraft by $1167.... Fine, whatever. I have the money in my savings. Try to withdraw it... and where it all my money go? I'm still overdraft by over a thousand... Please, change the button interface for the banking system by completely removing the word "current" from your actions. I want in plain writing where my money is and by doing what action where it is going. (i.e. Savings to Checking button, Cash to Checking button, etc.)
Hi Titanous, "current account" is what we call checking accounts in the UK. If you withdraw from savings it goes directly into your current account. Hope that helps clear up the confusion! (reply from Playniac)

PLEASE, PAUSE IN BATTLE. I ruined a one hour game only because someone knocked at the door while in the middle of the race.

i'd give this a 5/5 but it pushes that " SHARE THE CRAP YOU DID WITH EVERYONE ON FACEBOOK!" button down my neck too much. PEOPLE! I DON'T WANT MY TEACHERS, MY FRIENDS, MY GIRLFRIEND , MY NEIGHBOURS OR MY GRANDPARENTS TO KNOW THAT I CAME OUT 3RD PLACE IN A FLASH GAME NOBODY IN MY COUNTRY HEARD OF! I have important people in my facebook friendlist, and sharing things like " hey look, i play this game!" makes them think i'm a friggin 7-years old.
