A tip for combo and score hunters: the Lure is the third reward on the top row, and it makes setting up combo kills much easier. A lot of the smaller enemies will target it and completely ignore you while it's spraying, leaving you with several opportunities to swat them all while they're distracted. Also, unlike things like the grenade, box turret, and saw drone, you get full kill and combo credit since you're still using your sword to put down the enemies. I suggest trying it out if you're having difficulty getting the multikill medals or just want the fodder enemies to leave you alone for a moment.

Hit Boxes are seriously off, big sword but unless the middle hits and only in front of you will stuff die. Swinging is also entirely too slow when compared to blob speed. You start a swing and a faster blob comes along, gg Game over.

They do that sometimes, Neosublimation, a while ago 'It Belongs in a Museum' in Enchanted Cave 2 was the BotD twice in two months.

Contrary to the flavor text on the badge you get for killing a bunch of Biters, I find that often, I die when a Green Gloople bumps into me, and stuns me juuuuuuust long enough for a meltie to meander over and murder my ass. Ugh!

Lots of little lag pauses, dunno if it's by design but really annoying. Also my char would get stuck from time to time, couldn't move/attack for unknown reasons and then you die. One star, please sort out the quirks.

@Kranix- I suppose there is a distinction, but really that distinction is between earlier childhood and later childhood. You can call it a childhood game if you want, though.

@Ocsaleb You have a point, but I'm referring to it as such because I haven't really played Flash games for the past five years, and so, I feel there's a distinction between now and then.

so i decided to play this game again a little bit after 7 years, and in the very first game, the first 2 biters that showed up launched at me at the same time, missed, and formed a horror... nothing say "Welcome back!" better than death and suffering am i right??!!

Fact: I ought to be #1 on the HighScore-HardcoreBounty table. Last year I achieved a score of 12,722, which is nearly 600 points higher than Zhoom's score of 12,124.

@Kranix- I mean in terms of age. According to your profile, you are 16 years old. That is still a child. In most countries including Denmark, you are not an adult until you are 18 years old. This is one of my favourite games as well, but I don't call it a 'childhood favourite' because I too am still a child at 17.

A childhood favourite can be a teenage or adult favourite as well. I can't see how I'm a child for liking a game I liked as a child.

The only one of my childhood favourites that still holds up to the amount of nostalgia I have for it. Still a definite 5/5. Actually, the only thing that stops it from being absolutely perfect is the consistent use of "it's" instead of "its" in the possessive.

This game is antithetical to the concept of moving your character. It would've been a masterpiece if it'd been done like Dojo of Death. Also unstoppable crowd control faster than your sword can swing isn't particularly enjoyable to face off against.

How to get a good score in the leaderboard: make a grinder go through a pool of acid, hit it a bunch of times and try to kill it with another random goople.Guaranteed to get a score of +200 if you do it right.

I think bosses should be added, like after killing an entire nest a huge mostly invincible blob with 1 or 2 weak spot(s) to add an extra challenge to nests

I would totally love some kind of sword-less mode, where you didn't have your sword and you would have to use the glooples's own abilities against them. Anyway, that's just an idea. Still loved it, 5/5.
