FUUUUUUU
I played for so long then I got off it to take a break from the lack of ability to mute teh sound/music. I come back the next day to find everything reset! D: You are a troll good sir! But I love this game, so addicting.

I don't say FUUUU to this game
I don't know why but I find this game really addictive. The graphics, music and game mechanics aren't new and there are some things that irk me, but yet I can't help really getting into it.
The graphics are, well, not bad. The majority of it is copied from places such as rageface and elsewhere on the internet, but for a game based on memes, that is understandable. I also like how there is a mini face on my character when certain things occur.
Music is good. An 8-bit rendition of Trololo is very fitting and the sound effects aren't imbalanced with it. I do like the option of turning off the music separate from the effects though, as there are just some times that one isn't up to Edward Khil sung at Midi Minor.
The mechanics and gameplay is where I have dropped the point. They're more personal, but I do think they are things that would definitely improve the experience. One is actually with the running. I get a great start but when I have to stop to get adjusted to the screen, I just run in place. I don't know if this is a glitch or the game itself, or maybe it takes a lot of momentum, but it is a bit annoying, much like actual youtube trolls. Hee
Another area is with the upgrades. I like each power-up and I think the prices are reasonable, but why doesn't the game have a way for me to save what I have purchased. There are times that I have to leave and I may have to shut down the browser or computer, or other reasons to leave the game. Then I come back and I have to go over the game again just to get back to where I was. This maybe because there is no actual end to the game, but still, would make things more enjoyable.
Now this is more of a suggestion and not a point where I dropped a point. For nyan cat, if you ever make a sequel, maybe you could make him a one-time purchase, but with a huge increase in price and other modifications to keep balance? Sure it's great to purchase 2 or three but once they're all used, they're gone and the price for a new one doesn't seem to drop, unlike the spike block. Maybe understandable because it's a powerful upgrade, but I think changing it for a possible sequel might make things more enjoyable. (Of course then, Rage would turn into Me Gusta at that one)
There are the odd bugs that do pop up and I guess all those together plus what I have said reduces the mark, not because it is based off memes. Overall, this is a really fun, addicting game that could maybe use some tweaks for the future. Good job and I hope we get a sequel. Maybe toss in a peanut butter jelly time or a not bad Obama for next time.
Whats wrong with memes in a game?
I noticed some people complained about the whole meme thing, but really, si it all that bad? If your gonna be clicking something on the home page and hate meme's you aren't gonna exactly click something with the me gusta face as an avatar and the word "fuuuuuuuu" as a description are you? if you had any common sense, or any brain, you would likely think "ohey this has memes better not play it".
That said, I find this game very enjoyable, with the sense you are trying to purpouly troll people with the cameras strange wonkyness and the fact you never know where that damned spike block is under you. Its pretty much so a personal meme...y take on toss the turtle yeah? What is wrong with that? practically 90% of that game plays itself, you shoot the turtle with the golden gun, you fire nukes, and you watch as you rack up distance. you practically have no direct control over the turtle, and the same goes for here. after you hit that first spring, its practically all a show there to see what you hit and what you don't hit.
Its not without its problems, sure but it doesn't deserve a three or a one score surely? at least you can give it a five, because it is your own damned fault you clicked on it and turned out it had memes, your not blindly clicking some random game here are you? I certainly got a short bit of enjoyment out of it, just seeing some of the crazyness it was, but there are certainly things you can do to make it better. which i hope you certainly do in the future
Should'a tried a little harder
So, hypothetically, let's say you're making this game, okay? And you know that the game is the same dumb penguin baseball bullshit that's been played out for years (on the internet, no less, which means that years are the equivalent of centuries). And let's say you also want to base this game on overused meme bullshit for visuals, okay? So now you're worried that your game is played out. Understandable. So you want to make the game unique, somehow, so it'll stand out. Maybe you make it so that the screen doesn't move as fast as normal or something. I dunno what, it's your game right?
So now you've got this gimmick that makes your game unique. Makes it stand out from the other bullshit yeti sports penguin tossing games. Alright, cool, I can understand that. But now let's say you make a instruction section for your game. But let's say you really half-ass it, and make really shitty instructions. You've got more important things on your mind, like the crippling, game-breaking bugs right? You can't fuss around with bullshit instructions.
But now there's a problem. Your game is different from all the other bullshit penguin toss games. That's the whole point, right? But you didn't take any time to explain HOW it's different. So no one knows how to play your shitty game. So they get frustrated and rage-quit, like shitty babies. That's not your fault, it's just the way the world works, okay? So now you're getting low scores from people who would have liked your game if it just had a little more polish. That just sucks, doesn't it? What a bunch of crybabies.
GAME, Y U KILL ME WHEN I GO OFF RIGHT?!
Other than that, it is a fair game.
