I generally don't like video games, but that is pretty addictive and fun.

I beat 40 but don't want to beat them on par/bonus to get to more levels.

I beat all 40 on par/bonus and am now working on the bonus levels.

woo!

I kind of gave up in the middle of working through the bonus mode.  it became too annoying not to be able to see everything.

what do you think, do the little faces make the game even more addictive than it would have been without them? I think they do.

Heh, I think the faces are fun but I would have played through it either way.

The bonus mode is really annoying, but I worked it out.

The only ones I had trouble with were 31 and 44, both very similar (they were easy to solve but hard to solve under par. I don't think I had trouble actually solving any of them). I'm pretty sure it took me more time to get par on those two than on all the others combined.

I had trouble beating 31 on par and resorted to watching the walkthrough. I only watched that one, though.

I kinda want to make little red and green plushies with faces, but I'll get over it.

31 and 44 both seemed to depend on timing/luck, since I would do what seemed to be the same thing and the balls would fall one way one time and another way another time, or a third time they would inexplicably get stuck in a ridiculous "bridge" over a gap. I didn't watch any walkthroughs, though. If I tried to do either of them again at par I would probably take several tries.

It's even worse when there are achievements for it.  whistle

I finished the par, bonus modes, and bonus levels. I was stuck on 29 for a bit, but I think it better prepared me for 44, which was much easier for me than 29 - until I pretty much memorized 29's sequence.

When I got to the bonus mode, I was going to quit because it was all just another repetition of the first 40 levels, but with less visibility. I wanted something new if I was going to play 40 more levels.  But alas, I just kept playing anyhow. It was easier in a way because I had already played those levels. 39 was probably the trickiest level for me in the bonus mode because it required speed in using the mouse, but with less visibility -  I was Ok at it in the regular mode. And the bonus levels were pretty easy.

31 and 44 both seemed to depend on timing/luck, since I would do what seemed to be the same thing and the balls would fall one way one time and another way another time, or a third time they would inexplicably get stuck in a ridiculous "bridge" over a gap. I didn't watch any walkthroughs, though. If I tried to do either of them again at par I would probably take several tries.

I don't really think 31 or 44 were based that much on timing/luck. To me, they were the type of levels that required more in-depth analysis of how they were initially structured. But if you try enough combinations, and kinda guess at it, I suppose it would seem more like timing/luck. They're quite simple once you figure out the underlying structure; they just require more patience at first. But even if you guess at it, all you have to do is re-think the process, and you'll most likely see the key.

I just played 44 again.  Smiley But I wish there were more levels like that, since I already figured it out.
