Not bad...

The big bugbears on this one:

-- You have to hold down the arrow keys or peck like crazy to get your "dude" to move at all. Not as versatile as moving with a mouse.

-- I haven't seen a single 5 in the catch.

-- It seems like the 1s and 0s pop out even faster once you get near the cusp of the top of the screen.

-- If it were perfectly accurate to the vote system, you'd have to collect 200 numbers, and havea point threshhold to stay over. If your average drops below the average on each quota... (1.0 for 100 votes, 1.25 on 150 votes, and 1.6 on the 200th)... THEN you get blammed. And on the 200th, you get a final average score.

A finishing sequence for the victors (maybe a trophy or a comparison next to similarly scored flashes) would've been welcome.

Your choice in BGM, though, rocks.

Good concept. Just needs fleshing out.

Several people have commented on the 5 not appearing. I've checked over my code and it has appeared for me. It is nearly an instant win, so I made it very rare. I might take down the power a notch and make it more common.

I'm working on some different scoring modes, such as one where you go for the highest score after 200 votes.

1s and 0s do not pop out faster, its just that you have less time to react. I am about to increase the player speed to make it a bit easier.

great flash

just needs a little more work, i coulden't stop playing though. The movement is the only thing i think that needs to b changed, everything else was fair.

Um... seemingly impossible

first, I played for over 10 minutes without seeing a single 5 drop. you need to increase the frequency of them a LOT. secondly, every time I got to a certain height, two or three 0's would drop right on my head. since I was at the top, it was impossible to dodge. This didn't occaisionally happen. It happened EVERY time I got to a certain height. and, if by some mirical, I did dodge them, it kept raining 1's and 0's untill I was about to the middle again, at which point they would stop. This is obviously a torture device program.
