Finally, a game I can do well. The trick - don't hit the ball hard & it will just bounce up & up goes the score. For me, if it bounces off the page, game over.

Well, since I evidently gave Arelne wrong information I went & tried this out.
So far, haven't been able to beat 11. A few 9's & several 7's. Then I quit!

Well, I quit when I hit 100..just let the game end... I got bored.
I do think that you all are playing it wrong...
Keep hitting the ball to keep it in the air..the points add up the longer the ball stays up. I think that you all are sending the ball up only once...
How someone had over a million points - WAY over! - I have no idea. that person clearly needs a life!

Think of that old Atari game (yes, I am THAT old) - Breakout. You slid the paddle along the bottom to stop the ball from reaching the floor. It would hit your paddle & go upwards to knock out the bricks in the wall.
Same idea.... just keep clicking on the ball. Each time you click on it it goes upwards. The longer it stays off the floor, the more points you get. It will go at angles when it hits the side walls & it will go off the screen at the top & come back who knows where.
Good luck...Doug
