  REQUIREMENTS
The game was written in Flash 5. Note: It does not write to disk; the game can do nothing to your computer except give you a good time.

For the PC, the game runs fine on my Windows 450-MHz Pentium II and 2.8-GHz Pentium 4; it's a tad slower on my 200-MHz Pentium.

For the Mac, it runs fine on my single-processor G4, 450-MHz, in OS 9.2. The OS 10.x version is native (using Flash MX for the save) and runs well on my G4. Note that whereas the OS 10 version runs at the same speed as the PC version, the OS 9 is approximately 20% slower. However, the OS 10 versions also plays at the faster speed in OS 9.

For either computer type, the game takes up 800 by 640 pixels of screen space. I'd recommend a display with millions of colors. (The more relative space the game occupies on your screen and the more colors displayed, the better the game looks.)

A sound card lets you hear the whosh of hitting the ball or the explosions, for example, of hitting a bomb.
