This game is so fun… the source is not open huh ?

Left by krajsnick on June 29th, 2007

Thanks, yeah unfortunately it’s not open source. But I don’t think you would want to take a look at the code; it’s really not very pretty.

And everyone would likely just scan the code for vulnerabilities.

Well I should hope not everyone would do that but certain people might, yes. But that is not what I’m worried about. It wouldn’t take someone who was keen enough very much effort to decompile the game as it is written in Java and I haven’t made any effort to protect the code. Even so, I’m not sure what kind of vulnerabilities someone might hope to find in the code. If you want to try to submit a fake score then go ahead. Looking at the code won’t help you much there.

Good work. It’s really funny game!

It is posible to get from you some parts of code? I think about blood and smoke’s effects. Decompiled code might not compile.

Hello ! Nice to talk with you!
Hey I just have a question… my records was older than ” 2 days ago ” -_-
No worry, but i think the game don’t work correctly with the records, maybe cause my computer is very strange ^_^

Just, I want to know whats the empty scores mean… you know the scores are marqued with the day of the highscores, but some records haven’t got date… Why ?
Thanks a lot for your game I love it!

Left by Shyguy on January 4th, 2008

Hello Shyguy,

The highscores that don’t have a date were recorded before I had implemented the recording of the date. Similarly with the level reached. The time will just show the last time that you submitted your score, that doesn’t necessarily mean that’s when you first achieved that score.

Ok

Sorry for the current brokenness of the game. I’m endeavouring to fix it.

Left by alex on January 21st, 2008

Sorry about the temporary loss of Shyguy service. Normal service has now resumed and we’d like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. Thank you…

Left by Nintendo luver on February 14th, 2008

i would have posted the score but my computer is f***ed up bad

Left by Nintendo luver on February 14th, 2008

That’s impressive, Nintendo luver, considering that there is no level 8 :p

Left by alex on February 14th, 2008

a friend of mine made his own one of this the same thing but it had 100 levels that’s why it was so screwy on my computer i deleted it off though as after i saw this i thought that his was the Exact same sorry for the confusing post

Left by Nintendo luver on February 19th, 2008

Loving the game. There are some fairly major framerate issues though which isn’t so good (E6600@3GHz, 8800GTS should be ok!).

Just accidentally submitted a high score three times though lol! (Cupboard)

Left by Tom on May 18th, 2008

I have the same card and a similar processor and don’t see any issues. What problems are you having?

Left by alex on May 21st, 2008

The game says it is getting over 2000FPS, but it stutters very badly. Sometimes it slows down to about the speed you get with a “slow mo” power up, other times it will work fine for a few seconds, then jerk, then work fine for a few seconds etc.

It is still enjoyable though!

Left by Tom on May 22nd, 2008

In that case, first try closing any programs you have running that might be hogging the CPU or disk (eg file sharing or on demand tv programs for example). This should give you a smoother and much more enjoyable experience.

If that doesn’t work. Try pressing F4 to turn on V-synch mode. This will limit the framerate to your monitor’s refresh rate which may give you a more stable framerate if your CPU is having trouble keeping up with the graphics card.

Another option is to try pressing F8 to switch to fullscreen mode which dedicates the entire screen wholly to the game which can improve things if other programs are otherwise fighting for processing time (eg flash banners or videos).
