Topic: Stick it in the hole

Another frustrating yet addictive flash game this time you gotsta spin tha black circle!

I got stuck on the level with the whirly wheel.

Ooh, how compelling. That whirly one is easy if you get the speed right and just coast round it without touching the wheel. The one after it is evil though - a right-angled, spiky spiral to a central goal - I get all the way to the middle, but can't avoid the last set of spikes.

Wasted over an hour on level 24. Deceptively simple solution, but hard to execute perfectly 6 times in a row with steadily decreasing corner cutting angle and stopping area. It's all about establishing the right amount of inertia, so the ball stays in the same section while you turn the labyrinth 90 degrees, however.

Going to leave it at that till tomorrow, if it remembers how far I've come into the game...

Pretty cool game. Almost made it on the "right-angled, spiky spiral to a central goal" on the first try. Got all the way to the center and bounced just a little and hit the very last spike


[edit: Ok, got it The next one looks daunting at first, but if you just take your time, it's not bad either.

[edit3: How many more levels I just got past the one with the trampolines and need to get to work, but I can't stop Damn you Blaise

[edit4: Finally... I think the 2nd to last level actually gave me the most trouble.

The final one and that one were the problem levels for me. But now it's over!

9 hours 2 minutes and 47 seconds!!!!

Hey, it's five hours shorter than Lord_Fukutoku's time

Besides, it's not like I sat nine hours straight only playing the game... Sometimes the ball just sat in a still location while I was doing something else. Like surfing youtube...

haha, I don't think you read the time right

The total time at the end should be the sum of the time you spent on levels when you beat them. I only spent 4 hours on and off to get through them all
I spent a lot of time with the ball sitting at the beginning of a level while I was trying to get some work done.
