I got 31 seconds....but i have limited time to concentrate. it seems like it speeds up as time goes by.
It would be neater if the blocks moved randomly. They follow the same path every time, so you keep playing and you learn where the blocks go and how to avoid them It's still hard, and I haven't broken the 17 second barrier yet. Fun game.
Thanks...a real blast. It seems to be training the user to make smooth adjustments versus sudden ones.
I use a track ball.
this may have something to do with the times

yeah, you can get to 13 seconds by simply dropping down, then up, and then hide in the top left corner until the 2 squares come for you.
ok, it totally speeds up at 27 seconds.....i've gotten it to 35.68, but it gets really hairy.
Holy crap. 35 seconds? I've played that game on and off for years (a buddy in the Air Force sent it to me a long time ago) and I have never broken 17 seconds.

LJ. If you ever need a replacement mouse, I'll give ya one. I hate the sob. bb
Me too. They have them on some of the pcs at work. Move the ball a 1/16th of an inch and you're way, way off the screen.

Well adjust it then. There's a whole program interface to those things. I'm still looking for the "make mouse wake up 39 min early to cook breakfast "tho.
i love the track ball. if it had a scroll wheel it would be perfect. they make one, but it had a tiny little ball for your thumb. i like the control i get from my first two fingers. and it sits stilllllll.....no filthy mouse pad, and i can send the cursor across the screen with a twitch. it's faster....even if i have to use the scroll bars on the edges. the motion translates well to a laptop touchpad, too.
26.7, gotta get back to work.
I broke 14 seconds, after considerable practice. This is partly due to my crappy mouse I'm sure. Still, there's obviously no danger of me being in an F15 any time soon. (Like there ever was, with my eyesight.)
Using a trackball may be slightly awkward, at first, but once you aquaint yourself to it, it's much more efficient and practical. I have a wireless optical trackball - I can navigate my cursor from any fixed position: my knee, for example. But mainly I prefer the trackball because it utilizes the theory of using the smallest muscle group/movement to accomplish the task, reducing fatigue and therefore improving productivity.
Regarding the reflex test: I'm hitting a 21-second wall, but I keep telling myself that my peripheral boss-vision is distracting some percentage of my concentration. Also, I'm doing this at work, with a standard optical mouse. I'm not sure I could do better with a trackball. I'm using a combination of hand/wrist and arm/shoulder movement. It feels like playing Hell, which feels like reacting on a drumset, it's a familiar mode.

I'm hitting the 19 second wall myself. But the first 12 easy seconds don't really count, so I feel like I'm only playing for about 7 seconds.
18 seconds on the first try, while holding a squirming baby. But I play a lot of mouse games on newgrounds.com.
The trick is to hold your wrist still against the mousepad and only move the mouse with your fingertips (which is how I always use it) but you have to turn your mouse sensitivity up.
11.09. I'll be satisfied with double digits until I can recover the brain cycles currently dedicated to my

Yay! I'm up to 24.6, but there's relatively little skill involved. Just patience. I'm just memorizing where to move and when. Sometimes I screw up and hit something, but mostly you're just learning dance steps.
I find that if I 'follow' one of the blue shapes around, I only have to look out for 3 of the others...which makes it easier somehow. Or, I shift from corner to corner as they move....it's when the speed bumps up that it gets too hard to keep up with that

Some of us haven't made it there yet. Although I've seen it. It takes a while to close and restart sometimes, and Ive seen the speed up at around 27 seconds. It's amazing how fast it goes.
back up to 34.08 seconds within the first 10 tries since this thread got bumped. guess it comes right back to ya. thanks looky...it's slow here today.

Ya I have a BALL MOUSE and its a pain to have to keep pressing the button while ya move it!!!
My best is 8 something so far..
