coolio, reminds me of the flash based katamari on their website.

is the blob a movieclip that progresses in frames (and being replaced with a new one when on last frame) on a hittest with the red dots?

Hahaha this is awesome

Love it.
Spent almost 5 minutes on it.

Who is "their"?
Also, this was entirely done in AS, this would be pretty much impossible (or at least impractical) to do with movieclips.

That's seriously addicting. Great job.

TequilaClock · March 18, 2008, 08:13:17 PM

You invented something useless and awesome again. Lovely, I am addicted.

Simply amazing.

holy shit

Possibly the most awesome thing you've made yet.

Blue · March 18, 2008, 09:41:15 PM

you MUST turn this into a game... all it needs is some sound and maybe slightly more complexity.... It gets really awesome looking with a high spike number.

ChocolateBarClock · March 18, 2008, 10:18:14 PM

Dude that is really good! And as blue said, make it into a game. That is, a proper game with sounds and a menu. Oh and you should add a score feature or at least a label that tells you your spike number. Once again Roman amazes us all

I was partially inspired by Flow, even though I've never played it. I also wanted to make a spiky blob that moved around and stuff, eventually it became this.

Aw crap it resets at a high spike number.

It shouldn't :\

It kind of reminds me of leveling-up in an RPG, you get bigger, but each time you need more "exp". Also it has the mindless sense of accomplishment each time it gets bigger :)

I'd love to look into your code.

Sexually.
