Title: Need something to kill your productivity at work?
Post by: wraithzero on 18 Apr 2005, 05:48

Are you finding you time taken up by annoying school or office work?

Are you looking for something to suck up hours of your time, with nothing to show for it afterwards?

Look no further!

Try Squares 2 (http://uploads.ungrounded.net/191000/191672_squares2loadbar.swf), the most addictive game since that last flash game you played with the guy and the bicycle!

I'm pretty crap so far, my best is about 70 squares in the ten minutes I've had spare to play, but I've seen people get 200+, so there's your target.

Neat game. Only played it once so far, got 84 squares and a score of 7624.

EDIT: After playing it about a dozen times, I've gotten 145 squares and a score of 18642. It's silly and simple, but addictive. :)

84 on my first turn. I got smoke in my eye and fucked up. Fun game though. I bet Jedis use it to hone their skills.

99 on my first try, but now I'm kind of stuck.  As I get further along I get into the alcohol syndrome.. in the beginning I'm like "No, don't touch the red squares." Then it turns to "OoOo, pretty red square."

You're counting squares? Damn, I was counting score. I got 14,000 yesterday, and I intend to beat it. Not sure how many squares that is though.

145!?! Are you people on speed? I can't get out of the 80's without shit hitting the fan.

ok, 125... I feel somewhat validated.

Once it starts getting faster, your focus should be on avoiding red squares rather than collecting the black ones. By sticking to the middle of the screen, you should be able to see the red squares coming easily enough to avoid them. The black circle is the exception: always go out of your way to get that. I never would have gotten 145 without those bonuses.

Oh, that was a great game.  I'm doing well, I'm focusing on staying alive rather than getting the squares, and I'm keeping on top of things.

Then I blinked. :(

Final score: 238.

I'm nowhere near catching up to wriathzero, but I just got 175 squares and a score of 26049. It was about time I finally got the invincibility power-up when the squares were moving fast (making it actually useful)!
