(click here to pause)

First some ranting...
The Pause-button is a sadistic joke. You have to click a field that appears to offer you to pause the game and totally unexpected: you have to navigate a sub-menu while the game continues merciless. To make matters worse I had to look for it once I needed it. I would have expected space or the P-key would have done the trick...
The grey "-"-ball isn't mentioned in the instructions. My guess was he would be bad, so I blocked it. What does it do, exactly?
The darkened screens when a new level begins, as well as explosions block your vision while the game continues and add some new challenges by that. I'm not sure if it is intended that way. A short pause of a second while these things happen would seem appropriate.
Until now I have no idea in what manner the laser is charged. I fired it 2 times during my first run after it reached "devastating" and got a beam for 2 or 3 seconds. When I reached the final level in my second run I had to fire it again and the result was a very thin line that lasted only for the blink of an eye - despite the fact it was still "Devastating". I would really appreciate it if the instructions told how this damned thing works. In addition it could use a hotkey.
Also, there seems to be a glitch that lets a white "+"-balls disappear when they reach the middle of the right side. It happens 3 times or more each minute and is pretty perplexing.
M-key for mute would be nice, too.

I managed to get all medals by completing all levels twice and committed suicide. This took quite a while and when I finally wanted to submit my score the button did exactly nothing. I've encountered this problem various times before and it is quite common: I would have to whitelist some unknown third-party domain. Maybe I want to do so, maybe I won't - but it would be really nice to know about which domain to whitelist beforehand.

Although there can be done much to improve your game it is a nice timekiller and I had a good time playing it, once I got the hang out of it.

Oh, and for the medal-hunters: The highest number of lifes you can have is 25 and the highest rank is 10.

Nice idea but too slow

The game takes too long to get interesting. It's very monotonous. The concept is good and the music and background are decent.
The "promotion" balls always come down at the same time as another ball, so you either get the promotion or sacrifice your multiplier. That needs to be addressed.

Fun but...

It would be nice to have a save option. Or if you died on a level, you could return on that level without having to do the entire game over.

Fun, but...

This was challenging in an addictive manner, but I have to subtract 2 points from my rating because whenever it's a "Game Over," you have to sit through the intro advertisements instead of just going back to the menu or simply immediately starting a new game. That's just -1, the other point is for the pause. I feel like the pause button is just a black screen with the word "PAUSE" superimposed over the still-active game, with only the clock stopped. You can hear falling objects hitting the gates, reaching the bottom, activating negative effects, etc. Other than these flaws, I enjoyed the game. Oh on one last note, those who want a mute button do have a point, if they don't feel like muting their computers.

Best regards,
