maxploder
Rescue 33 archaeologists from an ancient tomb, blow stuff up, be a HERO! It's the latest Ninjadoodle game: maxploder.
To pass the smashers, simply walk past them. If you don't stop they will not hit you. You can even time your jumps (to avoid the spikes usually near them) to continue moving and jump over the spike areas.
To pass the smashers, just stop before them walk under them and stop just after them (before the spikes). Then pass the spikes and repeat. I only got crushed once during my whole run, doesn't seem that tough just a timing thing.
I tried this game once, and the row of three smashers (not the set with the spikes) kept smashing me, no matter how quickly I charged through, or how I stopped before running through each one. Trying again a day later, and I can run through them easily, on the first try. But this time, when I hit pause, the pause overlay won't go away, even though my figure is active behind it. Glitchy.
Four of us have tried all sorts of ways to get past the three smashers but we just can't do it. I think it might be the keyboard because our little figure doesn't seem to walk smoothly, it keeps bobbing up and down (skipping??). Anyway, we've given up and therefore must give this game a huge thumbs down!
Not a bad game I guess
ReplyDeletea good little game finished it
ReplyDeleteWas it made on the Atari 2600 that I used to have way back when?
ReplyDeleteHow do you save people ?
ReplyDeleteEven if I walk thru and from nothing happens...
Too easy... But, why a password?
ReplyDeleteOh no! I saved mummies instead of archeologists! This is what happens when your world is not in HD resolution!! XD
ReplyDeleteHow do you get past the ceiling things that squish you?
ReplyDeleteI made it past the first one and got killed by spikes.
ReplyDeleteDon't know how I got past it that one time though and cannot seem to do it again.
Very frustrating.
How do you get past those ceiling pummelers or whatever!??!!?
ReplyDeleteI can't pass through them either, it's really frustrating
ReplyDeleteCould someone help with how to pass the smashers?
ReplyDeleteThis game would be great but getting past those smashers is impossible.
ReplyDeleteTo pass the smashers, simply walk past them. If you don't stop they will not hit you. You can even time your jumps (to avoid the spikes usually near them) to continue moving and jump over the spike areas.
ReplyDeleteThat gets me past the first one but the second still hits me. This is getting too frustrating
ReplyDeleteEven if I try to walk past the ceiling things without stopping, I still get crushed.
ReplyDeleteJust stop in front of every crushers, then pass it, it's not that hard
ReplyDeleteI didn't find it too hard for the smashers... I tried a few times and that was done!
ReplyDeleteNice game Bart, thanks!
Well, this game is just annoying. I love most Ninjadoodle games but not this one.
ReplyDeletewhat mummies? it's just a webpage!
ReplyDeleteStopping in front of the smashers is not making them passable.
ReplyDeleteIs there a secret item that gives a speed boost somewhere?
Has anyone figured out what the password ("mummies") is for?
ReplyDeleteuse the pasword at pencilkids.com (there's a link) click on rewards then the games name and enter the code. hope it helps

ReplyDeleteThis was great fun, just my kind of game. Thanks much Bart (and, indirectly, the folks who made it)!
ReplyDeleteNinjadoodle games are always just the right degree of difficulty for me. I enjoyed this a lot.
ReplyDeleteGreat game.

This method simply does not work here.
Cool game!!!! :D

ReplyDeleteVery nice game! I just wish it was longer.
ReplyDeleteGlitchy.
ReplyDeleteI second that.

ReplyDeleteYou guys might want to try upgrading your FLASH PLAYER to the latest version.
ReplyDeleteHaving an older version of the player can sometimes cause bug in games.
Wasn't it this game that required the Flash update?
ReplyDeleteEither way, after 739248756723645 deaths, the smashers are impassable for enough of us. The game is hosed.
Yay for ninjadoodle!! :D
ReplyDeleteYou can stop a little under the smashers, only at the first part of them though, but once you have stopped under them, run and you will make it.
ReplyDeleteSo, now the smashers are so easy to pass you literally have to try to die.
ReplyDeleteMust have gotten fixed.
Nice little platformer.
