Sorry about that. The colors are strictly random, so it's not trying to make you lose. But right, in the end when there are more colors, the wrong ones become more likely.
It looks like a pretty nice game but it seems to be an endless one. I've reached level 8 and 2572 points and I gave up. I think some instructions would help. Oops! There are instructions in the notes that weren't in the version I've downloaded. I love it!
Thanks, ffred! So ypu played at Speed 0? It's endless only at Speed 0, otherwise there's a time limit. Speed 0 is meant as the "strategy mode" where time doesn't matter.
Yes, I'm also frequently surprised about what people can do with Scratch. The Flash player also helps, since it lets such projects run at the speed they need to look good.
Yes, this may seem a bit unfair. I just thought it would look stupid if a balloon touches the tack and then nothing happens. But I guess I will change this. Thanks for the comment!!
Wow. Geniales Spiel. Ich mag auch, wie du das mit den Schwierigkeitsstufen gemacht hast. Du könntest die Grafik von den Ballons noch etwas verbessern, wenn du am Rand von jedem das Weiße wegschneidest. Ansonsten wie gesagt: Klasse!
Danke, das freut mich! Die weissen Raender finde ich auch nicht so toll, die hat mir Photoshop aber irgendwie nicht weggemacht. Aber ich hoffe, man kann damit leben :-)
Download the 16 sprites and 272 scripts of "Ballo(o)ns" and open it in Scratch
Project Notes
English -------
A game for kroko, inspired by a 2010 Christmas game on www.kika.de.
3 balloons of the same color in a row fly away and give you points. But you earn (much) more points if you make more balloons fly away at the same time. A broom lets you sweep two balloons for free. If you're out of time or a balloon touches the nail, it's "Game over". If you beat level 8, you win.
Speed: 0 = strategy game, 4 = arcade game.
This is a "1SXN" (one sprite times N) project, meaning that all sprites are exact copies of one sprite. Here are other projects of this type: (link to project) (link to project)
Deutsch -------
Ein Spiel für kroko, inspiriert durch ein Weihnachtsspiel auf www.kika.de aus dem Jahre 2010.
3 Ballons gleicher Farbe hintereinander fliegen weg und geben Punkte. Du bekommst aber (viel) mehr Punkte, wenn du mehr Ballons gleichzeitig wegfliegen lässt. Mit einem Besen kannst du zwei Ballons wegwischen. Wenn du keine Zeit mehr hast oder ein Ballon den Nagel berührt, heisst es "Game Over". Wenn du Level 8 schaffst, hast du gewonnen.
Speed: 0 = Strategiespiel, 4 = Reaktionsspiel.

...OH COME ON! No swapping with the next balloon?! The game always picks the wrong colors and drove a game over 10 TIMES now!!
Sorry about that. The colors are strictly random, so it's not trying to make you lose. But right, in the end when there are more colors, the wrong ones become more likely.
why does he give you horrible balloons!!!
what do you mean by "horrible"? (Everything is strictly random, so no bad intentions.)
this is amazing!!!
Thanks a lot, I'm glad you like it!
wow!
:-)
I almost won! Game over on level 7!!! WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME?!
I'm really sorry, but it would be boring if one could win every time, wouldn't it?
Yeah, I´m a hero! That´s such a great game!
level 4 score 52 minutes 9
This is a very fun game! I like it!
Thanks a lot!
It's very creative and interesting!
Wow! This is amazing!
Thanks, I'm glad you like it!
Yay!
AWESOME
Hi Kinderlabor! Hier sieh *LACH* dir DAS an: (link to project) Heute habe ich übrigens ein englisches Buch bekommen!
I won on speed 1!
Version 0.5 of the bad hammer chronicles! hope you like it! (link to project)
Awesome game!

(view all replies)Wow! This is amazing. I never would have imagined this possible on scratch. :)
Yes, I'm also frequently surprised about what people can do with Scratch. The Flash player also helps, since it lets such projects run at the speed they need to look good.
(view all replies)you should make it so it only senses the tack after the clearings are made, as i had a big combo, but it hit the tack before any of it could clear.
It's fixed now!
Yes, this may seem a bit unfair. I just thought it would look stupid if a balloon touches the tack and then nothing happens. But I guess I will change this. Thanks for the comment!!
Das sind ja 272 Skripte!!!!!!! O_O'
Ja, aber ein Ballon hat nur 16 Skripte, und dann habe ich den Ballon einfach 15 mal dupliziert. Insofern sind es "eigentlich" viel weniger Skripte.
(view all replies)Heilige Katze!!!!!!!
Meine Score ist 50!
Interesting game and nice sprites!
Thanks, dapontes! The master balloon is from www.web-grafik24.de (free clipart images).
cool. Nice job. It's pretty fun.
I just won with 975.
Thanks! Maybe some people will post scores. I believe it's possible to get beyond 1,000 (there is a bonus of 377 if you beat level 8).
Tolle Sache, macht grossen Spass! Ein Tipp: Super wäre es, wenn es noch ein oder zwei zusätzliche Reihen gäbe. Das wäre dann noch spannender!
Danke! Das mit den zusaetzlichen Reihen ginge prinzipiell schon, waere aber nochmal ein ziemlicher Programmieraufwand - den scheue ich im Moment.

Beautiful game.I like the different speed 0-4.It's difficult to beat level 8 ! Good script also.
Thank you! It might have been easier to program without the "1SXN" approach (see the project notes), but it was definitely more fun that way!
A very nice combination of speed and strategy. Most impressive :)
Thanks a lot! It also requires quite some luck to win (maybe too much).
Very interesting game! My best score so far is 62.
good
