RE: FLASH: Hockey Flash game site check...

[Dan Sobczak]

Thanks, all, for checking the game for me...


Sounds like the consensus is to enlarge the hit area just a bit on the puck,

and maybe slow the puck down slightly...


I guess after something like a 1,000+ attempts of clicking on that puck

while developing the game, I got a bit familiar with exactly where to

single-click on the puck to block it.  :)


But here's a hint -- it does help to lead the puck with your mouse and give

it 2 or 3 clicks as it's coming toward you, so in case your first click

missed the puck, the 2nd or 3rd might hit it..


Thanks for the suggestions and tests!
