This is a pong game with a ramped-up difficulty. That's about all.
Firstly, there was no sound. IMO, this game would have been so much better with an upbeat song accompanying the game.
The lack of color was also a slight turn-off. A simple gradient-background would suffice.
One more thing that I noticed: the position of the paddle didn't seem to effect the path of the ball. It didn't seem to matter whether the ball was hit from the left side, middle, or right side of the paddle. The ball traveled in one fixed path, no matter what.
Overall, as I have already stated, it's just a simple pong game with a higher difficulty.

Thanks for your comments. I'll remember to use sound in my future games, and you're right about how the ball isn't affected by the paddle. Instead, when the ball bounces, it's speed is randomly adjusted to bounce in a new direction.

This was a very fun game to play. It had a nice difficulty curve, which was good. The graphics in between the levels were also nice, as were the sound effects that went with them.
The music was very fitting, but maybe next time, add a "jukebox" feature. Maybe add about 5 or so different songs that the player could switch between during the levels.
Overall, it's a very nice, clean-looking game, and I look forward to future submissions from you.

5 medals left...grrr...
But yeah, it's a pretty fun game. Simple, but fun. The only thing I would suggest is adding a mute button.

On level 18, I encountered a very annoying glitch.
For some reason, I had to restart the level. When I did, the screen started blinking furiously. The level disappeared, and all that was left was one single square of ground with 19 lions standing on it. The only way that I could stop it and continue with the game was to close out of the game itself.
Now, it was fun. One of the better games I have played in the past week. The lack of a save feature got me pretty upset, mainly because of the above glitch. It was very challenging, but passable. I would have loved to see the ending though.
Overall, great game. I give it a 8/10 and a 4/5.

I quote Krinkels on this movie:
"the best damn madness movie ever"
Really, this was awesome. The music was kick-ass to say the least, and fit well with the animation.
Speaking of animation, that was some of the best I've seen in a while. But I really like the whole "hand-drawn" animation type deal you used, and i wished that there were more animations like it.
And for a self-proclaimed Atheist, that was a lot of Christian overtone.
But anyways, it was an awesome flash, worthy of the title "Madness."

you cant claim to be an atheist if you have no knowledge of what you're an atheist of.

i dont know if anyones already pointed these out (im not lookin through 210 reviews), but there were some slightly annoying bugs.
if you selected the rope paint, and then another type of paint, (ill use the blood paint for example), the rope paint would still be activated. the blood would paint right, but it would also have a layer of the rope paint below it...
also, if you flip some items over the axis and they went off the box with the aura, you couldnt move it back. it could still be deleted, but w/e.
i dont know if that made any sense, but i tried. hope it helped.
other then that, no other major bugs i saw. still trien to get Mr. T and the penis </spoiler>, but hey, good game anyways.

The horizontal flippage sending the image off-screen is a new one... and dually noted! The multiple paints thing is something I did end up finding also, and is another thing I'll take into account with any version 2 development. Thanks for the review and glad you found it enjoyable!
