Hmm, looks like *all* ARG-related sites have changed to this game. Surely some sort of mistake?

Also, the game is so poor that I can’t even be bothered to play it to the end, even though there’s probably bonus things for completing it.

They’ve been fixed now. Which is a shame, as I was gearing myself up for a game, lame as it looked. Maybe it’ll be today’s new content.

Was it like the Starbug game on TOS? That was amazing.

Well, I managed to progress to level 2, with a very low score.

If anybody unlocks any new content through this…amusing little timewaster, do let us know, won’t you?

That sucked. Someone upload whatever I’m missing out on to youtube.

I can’t get past level 3. My starbug keeps freezing, which allows the spikey rocks to crash into me and kill me. It’s so frustrating!!! Grrr!

I just got as far as level 5 and died – I give up. It’s a big pile of wank!

I don’t think there’s a worthwhile end to this game. I found a cheat to advance to the next level by loading the game into Macromedia Flash Player (Click ‘Control > Step Forward One Frame’. Then click ‘Control > Play’).

I kept skipping levels and got as far as Level 50 before I gave up. With each level the only different I noticed was an increase in the number of points you need to collect.

When I clicked ‘Control > Stop’ then ‘Control > Play’ I was presented with what I presume is the end screen. All there was is a “Winner / Play again” message. I was pretty pissed off that I’ve spent 3 hours playing this game hoping there would be something worthwhile at the end of it. Maybe there is, and my cheats don’t allow you to access them, maybe someone else better at Flash can find a way around it without playing the very frustrating game.

[Nakrophile]

Well that was fun.

Hmm.

Shite.

The message from the Cat does say that Gerbilhead passed the past 10 years playing this game. Obviously if there was a point or an end he would gone crazy. Poor guy, first Rimmer, then a shit computer game. I’d rather have chicken…

Maybe that’s where we’re going wrong. Anyone want to give that a try? I’m just positive that there’s an unreleased promo shot at the end of it all.
