hrtbrk Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 How new is this? I love it! It's an easy 1000 NPs too. The only thing I dislike is sometimes it's hard to grab/throw the ball. <_< Are there any tips or tricks? Quote
Ashbash Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I love the game because I used to play bowling on facebook all the time and the controls are the same but unfortunately it won't let me send my score at all. Anyone else having this problem? I got over 1300 twice now and each time I sent my score it would say something along the lines of "Sorry you have not earned any points so you can't send your score." :( Quote
Xepha Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I love it :D I didn't score as high as you, but I was just trying it :) Quote
alyssa! Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Every time I throw the ball, it goes in the gutter, regardless of where I point the ball or where the mouse ends up. >.< It's quite annoying actually. Quote
Ashbash Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 How does one contact TNT? I've never done it before. I totally could've had a trophy if my scores had counted! I'm usually really bad at games as well and don't have many trophies so it would be nice to get one. Quote
Xepha Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 http://www.neopets.com/contact.phtml Use one of the contact form. But they won't give you a trophy or your points if your score couldn't be processed... And Alyssa, might be caused by some lag on your side. Try to play a lower quality version or to switch browser. Quote
Ashbash Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Thanks Xepha. I didn't think they would but I would like to be able to play the game and be able to send my scores. So hopefully they'll be able to fix this problem. Quote

The high score was at 650 when I played LOL You clearly stomped them! Quote
Ashbash Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 That's about what it was at when I tried to send mine the first time as well! It's over 1500 now though and I'm sure it's going to continue to get higher. Quote

There are a couple higher now. I don't get how some people are able to send their scores and others can't - so annoying! Quote
Masaryk Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I didn't really like this game, mostly because I don't like the controls. The ball is a little hard to grab. Well, at least it's one more score toward the 'Top Gamer' avatar. Only 34 to go..... Quote
Lyndsie Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Well, it took a billion years to load up, and when it did the controls got on my nerves. But then again, I'm in a really bad mood. Maybe I'll try when I'm in a better mood. :P Quote
lazycrazykitten Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 *Sighs* Yet another game that won't load for me. I can get to the start screen, but then the screen turns white. Looks like yet another game I won't get to try. Quote
Jade Danielle Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 It was vaguely fun, but seemed to take too long to get through levels, the ball is hard to grab, and the worst part is I sat here playing it for what felt like a thousand hours until I completed the entire game and earned over 1,200 points. Then when I submitted my score it said I couldn't submit my score because I'd earned 0 points. WHAT. Why would you do this to me, new game? All of that was for nothing :( I like the idea (bowling games are usually fun), but I don't know, this game seems like more work than fun. Just my own personal opinion :P Quote
Sapphy the Swamp Witch Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Yep, happened to me as well :( My score was closer to 1700 though... would've been first in the high scores if it had sent! There are a couple higher now. I don't get how some people are able to send their scores and others can't - so annoying! Ouch, I'm sorry. I haven't been playing the game that much, but I keep of slipping and that sort of thing xD. Quote
Lia Seeya Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 The game's a little tedious when it comes to getting through levels and the ball doesn't always cooperate. :laughingsmiley: Otherwise, it's pretty good. :) Quote
Denisa Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 It's fun..but for me also a little time consuming and i get bored with it after a couple of minutes.. Quote
Khepera Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 The game takes a lot of time to play, and it get's sort of boring after a while. Not at all the worst game on Neopets, but I probably won't play it a lot. Quote
lovedwallflower Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 well, im not a very good gamer and i usually have this excuse: i have a laptop and mouse controls are harder :( seems true for this one as well Quote
Jikuu Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 There is a reason that bowling is not that widely watched or played of a sport. I think this sums it up well. The game's a tad on the easy side because it's just grab and roll and you can alter the ball's path mid-roll. But going through 10 rounds every time? Sheesh. Snoozer. Quote
hrtbrk Posted May 21, 2009 Author Posted May 21, 2009 I think the game would have been better if they used keyboard controls instead of the mouse. We hit the space bar, and like with Top Chop, the bar can move as we try to get the highest speed. Then we could use the arrow keys and space bar to maneuver/jump. Quote
Ithil Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 The game is a little bit fun, but my computer frozed 2 times when I was playing lol I will play in low quality tomorrow morning. I'm curious to see how many points I can score (I reached around 700 points two times before my computer failed). Quote
Fishie Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 It's not a horrible game. It does lag and there are a few glitches including the unable to send score if you beat the last level. The way around it is in the frame before you finish, you click End Game, then send score. That way, your score goes through. I learned this the hard way after playing twice with a score over 1900. I still got the bronze trophy with 18XX, but silver would have been nice. Also, there is a glitch with the last 3 frames. Don't bowl a strike because they register as 0's. GLHF! Quote
Ashbash Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I've decided this game just isn't for me. I just hit 3 strikes on the last frame of the first level and it gave me two zeros and a spare. I haven't tried to send a score again yet and was going to but once it did that I just gave up because my score only went up by 10 from that. Quote

Oh I wish this had been posted yesterday! I knew about the last three frames glitch, but it would've been nice to get some of my epic scores to send by ending the game early :( Quote
