I loved the game for the first... 5 minutes. Then, the "too much power!!" thing really started to tick me off. I KNOW there's too much power, give me a quarter of a second to put in the other piece...

Took me two go's to get all the coins in 7.9. This is what 7.9 looks like for me atm. http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/2961/refraction79.jpg

Great game, but I have one question: How the heck does a penguin know how to fly a space ship? Unless... OMG, it's the penguin from Learn to Fly!!!

Great game, 5/5 but definitely either needs game completion to go up to hard or to add a badge for all Cards/Coins as a hard. Even an easy for the first 3 worlds or something would be encouraging.

There really should be a confirmation menu if you go to clear your progress... one miss click and several dozens of minutes of effort are gone.

Know what's annoying? Stupid popups that tell me what I ALREADY KNOW! Yes, I've only got a quarter of the power necessary, I'M NOT DONE YET!

I wish that instead of using a popup note when an object is being over/underloaded, you could symbolize it with, say, a color glow radiating from the object(s) in question. Even the shake effect they already have is enough to get the idea across without that text obstructing my view of the puzzle.

A sequel to this could also teach physics (light rays, angles of incidence and reflection, total internal reflection etc.)

Finally found a solution for 7-9 level with all coins: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/864/refraction79.png/
Only 6-7 card left for me to get.

Makes you think a bit - but that's just fine. Great music, I turned off my own music just to listen to it. I love it, 5/5 easily. If there was a 6 I'd probably push it. Greg - get on it.

Hmm.. This seems to not load for me on my old shabby PowerPC.. Running FireFox and Mac10.4.11 and it gets stuck at the screen where it says 'Loading' in green, and an empty bar below it. Nothing happens for several minutes.

I love this game. I'm a maths teacher who sometimes finds it difficult to get the younger children interested in fractions. A game I can recommend :)

Took me some time to realize that you cannot get both the star and cards for some level, without clearing it twice :(

This game is kind of like the Dream World of math games (except as far as I know playing Dream world doesn't teach you valuable thinking skills) - too much fake content. Look! You got...some coins and an animal card! A, uh, "cawwie," an earth-type alien thing whose "ability" is to change colors...which has no use in or out of game. Oh, well. I kind of miss the old Math Blaster with his silly green suit and his quest to save the universe...

good game :) reckon to be good at maths but still made me think quite a bit on some of the latter levels, mainly about the logistics but yer. and to reset you can just reload the level not too much effort. but yer good game :D

I'm having the same problem as ChaoticBrain. Beat the game, no badge. Beat the last level again, still no badge. On one of them I clicked to skip the ending cutscene, on the other I didn't. No badge either way. :/

Interesting little puzzle game. I love the feeling of getting slightly frustrated with a puzzle but still being fully aware that I can solve it. That's the sign of a good puzzle game imo. 5/5
