I guess he will soon. I got a newsletter from them yesterday, and then I had already been playing the full version for two days :confused:

Hehe, jeb, I'll have you know that you just knocked off my fiance's high score, and she says she's going to take back the #1 spot! Watch your back ;)

The reason we were slow with the newsletter (and announcement) is that we were in "soft launch" mode. Also, a press release is forthcoming, so we figured that release would serve as our announcement here.

Anyway, I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the game, jeb! Well done on that score :) You're the first person ever to win the 1,000,000pt trophy :)

I'll have to use my l33t hacking skills to get that score...

Hah, I was actually at Grubby Games the other day, and I saw the Linux games section, and I was wondering why I never heard of Fizzball before. Now I know that it is new and not officially announced.

But a few days to get the top score? Yeesh! I want your day job! B-)

Hehe, thanks! When I was down to just a single ball left I tried playing some easier levels again, but I only discovered that you already had thought of that and didn't award me the butterflies! :( Don't think I'll attempt to get another high-score for a while, but I'm gonna do my best to get the "Completist" trophy also (some of them are really hard!) :)

I knew people would try that :)

It gets hectic when you're down to your last ball... especially if you reach an alien level. One lucky shot by the alien and you can easily lose that ball.

Some of them are very very hard! The one where you can't break anything on the level is technically possible (there are a few levels where you can do it), but I haven't even managed it yet :)
