If the ball goes too fast, even if your cursor is positionned properly, it goes through... Lost a few balls that way...

The HTTP purists among us will notice an HTTP 404 is never actually returned for that page or any non-existent page on his server... Probably in an effort to appease those who have "Friendly HTTP Error Messages" turned on in IE.

FWIW I got bored after level 6, and my touchpad wasn't exactly helping my cause.

Server admins can make sure that their errors are returned, rather than IE's friendly HTTP errors -- even if returning a 404 response code -- by simply padding their error pages to a minimum size. This KB article has the scoop.

Back in the day, when I was a a web-browser-writing dude, I came across one site where every page returned status 404 (but with the correct content as the "error" page), presumably as an attempt at cache evasion.

3049 on gravity, including some very pretty orbits in the 3 gravity source level. As for corporate firewalls, one of the levels is called W***er, and another F**k it.

I thought Gravity was a slick game. I eventually reverted to just trying random inputs in it. The crazy thing was, some of those resulted it really wild atom paths that racked up the points. I'd really like to see a replay of the high score game.
