Very good ribbon-flying game; it's relatively simple yet extremely functional and demanding. A must for long flights or waiting room time-killing.

Great Game! If it doesn't work on a Sony CLIE (I have 3), disable hi-res support for it.

It one off the best games I'd never had played on my palm.

This program does not work with my Palm V upgraded to Palm OS 4.01 with a checksum error. This does not mean the program is unacceptable, only that it doesn't work with my hardware.

This is probably the closest to the best game for the palm. Its simple, can be played with one hand, starts easy but becomes challenging really fast, and damn fun!
Suggestions for improvement:
- As an alternative to pressing button to move button up, how about having the option of using pen (i.e. touch the screen and the ribbon moves up)
- Keep track of high score for the 3 separate game modes
- Alter colour palette for variety
Thats all I can think of right now. Thanks for an excellent game!

It plays very smoothly, but corrently will not work correctly on a high resolution sony Clie, you'll get a shrunken double image.

I absolutely love it! The graphics are way cool and I dig the online high score list! Currently, the only disadvantage I can think of (for v1.0) is the lack of a score counter and/or timer while playing the game... afterall, I'm sure we would like to know how long we've been on the game right? :D
