i absolutely loved this game
this game is incredibly addictive, i've played it for an hour nonstop, thats a lot for me! It's well-designed, well-programmed, and overall extremely fun.
the 9/10 is because i have noticed a couple of bugs.
1. the shield powerup (the purple circle), what does it do? i've noticed that sometimes a little spiky circle flashes around the character for a fraction of a second, but that's it.
2. the high scores. i wasn't able to submit my high score (a whopping 30482, at least i think it's whopping, i haven't actually seen the high scores) when you click the high scores button the mouse just flashes and npothing happens. i'm not sure if this is a bug of the game or if it's my flash (i'm running ubuntu linux and the flash tends to be buggy sometimes) so i didn't take off any points because of that doubt.
definitely adding to my faves.
keep up the awesome work!
