(...) You can *sort* of do this -- if the red line finishes while your black line is still going, you can start another red line. This is actually a pretty important tactic for getting high scores. It wouldn't be too hard to actually implement the (...) (24 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Actually, I'm not sure yet. I've spent more time coding than playing. Karen's top score is 6000-something so far, but I'm pretty sure one can get past that. Also, I think I'm going to add a timer. It's possible to do really well if you spend (...) (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) heh... I guess I need to work at it some more - I'm only at 3200 or so :) (...) oh no! Jenn keeps saying I drive her mad cause I wait too long... is it going to be a timer with a set time per level, or just a limit how long you can wait (...) (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) I haven't figured it out yet exactly. I think it's going to be a set time per level. However, I'm not sure what will happen when the time runs out. It might just be for a bonus. (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Also, Tom Cook says that instead of having the right button switching between vertical and horizontal, make the right button only do horizontal lines, and the left button start a vertical lines... This also will help faster play, which is (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Actually, I tried this initially, and found it much worse. It's not intuitive enough -- even after playing for quite a while, you keep forgetting which button is going to go which direction. When I get around to implementing a Settings dialog, (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
