Welcome to the Snooker Game developed in Flash...

That sure is a game

A good foundation...

This is a nice piece of programming. Sure, the hit-test isn't perfect, but the physics is OK. Touch up on the code, and greatly improve the Graphics, you've got yourself a fully-fledged game.

Fundamentally rubbish

Where to start...

The hit detection is awful- more than once the cue ball passed right through a coloured ball.

The graphics are basic to say the least...

No sound makes for a boring experience

The power gauge does at least work, but hitting the ball at top power is ridiculously unrealistic and makes the hit detection even worse

There is no way at all of judging the angle of your shots (like in most other pool/snooker games)

Snooker is played with a number of different coloured balls, not just two. Even pool has a black ball, and some sort of penalty for potting the wrong colour. All the balls may as well be the same colour in this as there is no difference between potting any of them.

Both snooker and pool tables have six pockets, not four.

So if you fixed ALL of those things you might have something worthwhile here. As it is it isn't really a game as there is no point in it whatsoever and it is so broken that even if you did try and get a high score you would be defeated by the poor mechanics.

1/10, try harder next time before submitting something

Work on your flash skills...

This had potential, but i didn't like the distance that the balls could move, or the way you had to hit the ball...Forget about incorporating spin, just try to follow the desgin of the famed 8-ball quick fire pool on miniclip; the graphics of this are obviously mediocre, but i won't factor it in even though I should. The lack of decent sound effects also made this boring, but i got to a score of 60 before quitting. This is good for someone who just illegally downloaded an old version of flash and did this in there spare time for about 5 minutes, but you should just take a seat and contemplate whether or not this is fun to play.
