I just Stumbled across this neat game.

http://intihuatani.usc.edu/cloud/flowing/

Nice, simple and quite relaxing. :)

What do you guys think of it?

Um...

Very weird.

I was mezmorized by it. The game was very soothing

how long were you playing for?

A few minutes...a few relaxed minutes :cool:

makes me hungry...

I want my bong.

I want my bong.But does it want you?

Very nice...but what's the actual point? And why did I have a look at this thread, when I should be working? Despite the title...

But does it want you?
In Soviet Russia, bong smokes you!

...sorrry...I've never made one of those jokes and had to do it at least once...

is it sad that i played this for 15 minutes?

I played it for two. Then it started to freak me out, so I quit.

...sorrry...I've never made one of those jokes and had to do it at least once...Pssh, the orignals were much better because they had context (which was refering the orwellian state). Stop me if I'm patronising you.

But the best were
In Soviet Russia, television watches you!
In Soviet Russia, library checks out you!
and the best -
In California, you can always find a party. In Soviet Russia, the Party can always find you!

Smirnoff's other stuff was good too. Like -
reading from employment announcements of “Part-Time Woman Wanted”: “What a country! Even transvestites can get work”.

And upon being offered barman on a “graveyard shift”, the remark “A bar in a cemetery! What a country! Last call? During Happy Hour the place must be dead.”

And finally. “We have no gay people in Russia — there are homosexuals but they are not allowed to be gay about it. The punishment is seven years locked in prison with other men and there is a three year waiting list for that.

is it sad that i played this for 15 minutes?I.. uh.. actually played it till the end... >.> *ahem*

What? It ends? :eek:

Sperm eating crab louse.

There's an end? I though this was like the falling sand game, the point was to enjoy it, not finish it.

What? It ends? :eek:Yeah, spoiler:
after going down many levels until it won't let you do down any further you find a large solitary creature that tries to eat you. If you eat it releases a bit of food with a yellow dot. Eat it and the game ends and it starts you at the beginning, but with a new, different looking creature.

damn you! you know with a thread title like that any procrastinators will click! :p i just spent over an hour playing that game. 's pretty good though, mesmerising is definitely the right word. the orange of the second level made me feel a bit ill though!

i think you keep evolving until you become the ray-like creature, unless there's other sorts of creatures to become. the spirally creature is really hard to control against the pincer worm at the end. so i didnt get to start the 3rd level.

Just finished it. Well, the first level.

I couldn't kill the frigging doppleganger at the end. Feh! Now my wrist hurts from maneuvering :(

Follow it until it just turns orange then speed up by left clicking and steal a circle off it and run away. Repeat until you take the last circle. That's the safest way I could think of. Also it helps if you eat less food on the way down as it means there's less circles for it to steal off you.

Came across and finished this a while ago, if you beat the one at the end you lay an egg which becomes the other kind of creature - which you then go through the levels with again until you meet the one you started with, and have to beat that.

Why does the second level have to be so yellow? I'm getting a headache.

Gah! Stupid circle creature....can't protect my circles!

I hate that thing. I tihnk I ate it once, but I have no idea how.

Oh, I can eat it. When I am it, It's hard not to get your circles eaten...Especially fighting another circle thing.

Ya, I ate that yellow sperm thing a few mins ago. I prefered the snake thing to the amoeba circley thing. It's damn hard fighting the other ones. I'm so downloading the offlin one of this. There goes my life for the next few weeks.

I ate that yellow thing and nothing happend. It makes me sad.

I just beat the last snake with the circle, but for some reason it's not giving me the yellow thing, it's just sitting there. I think I might have to defeat all the enemies.

As for beating the snake with the circle - charge at it until it has ~4 circles (charging makes you smaller, so you're harder to hit), then go slowly and time it so you grab a circle when all of your circles are facing away from the snake's mouth.

wow this is pretty cool... calming. damm you - i was going to get an early night's sleep!!

Looks like Level 2 is all there is for now.

orange level... i think thats enough for now (otherwise i'll be up for another half hour...)

it doesn't happen to save your progress, does it?

My favorite was "When I first came to America I saw a commercial that said 'We guarantee our furniture and stand behind it for six months'...and I thought 'But that's why I left the Soviet Union'."

I got a high score! :cool:

i tried to play it again and i couldnt figure out how to win...:(

I got to the second level with the diamond like things. They were just too fast for me when I got to them then.

I want those few seconds of my life back...

few seconds? you obviously did not invest enough time. i suggest at least 20 minutes...

What the hell! I was supposed to start a term paper...

NS is known for delaying many term papers...

I got a high score! :cool:

i didn't know there was scoring in this game. i just finished it and nothing happened, just kept on floating in space with no place else to go. now i can go to bed. damn - got no revision done today.:rolleyes:

I ate a few of those flowing things, but then I couldn't be bothered. It all seemed a little pointless.
