It actually does work fine in IE.

@OP
Did you beat it yet? I did but I think i failed every possible way before beating it.

This game is testament to why I avoid HTML5 like the plague for any serious development. HTML5 technologies definitely have their use cases, but for web-apps with any level of complexity, they break and glitch all over the place.

Lucky to play it for 30 seconds without the graphics going haywire, while it supposedly works just fine on IE, has to depend on Flash for sound (negating the open-standard gospel).

Yeah actually I beat it without that many tries. Probably around 10 or so. Most of the struggle was with the graphics disintegrating after a few seconds of starting.

10 is actually really really fast

Warning: Flash apparently is blocked or unavailable. This game relies on Flash for the sound, due to HTML 5 Audio being horrible crap. Sorry. Hopefully, the pathetic standard will improve in the future. If you are blocking Flash, you should now see a square that you can click or something to enable it temporarily on this page.

Designing web pages that only work in IE might have been fine 15 years ago. Now it means you fail at web design.

FFS what is wrong with Kimmo? He could probably write some decent Android apps that would hold together better than this. I'm sure he has some giant list of grievances that prevents him from doing so though...

Wait, that's not part of the game? Guess that explains why I couldn't throw the coconut lol.

He thinks he's a perfectionist, but he puts out shitpile games like this? I no longer consider him a welfare queen. He seriously needs welfare. He's never going to do anything productive with his life.

Of course. Android doesn't support some obscure thing from 10 years ago, so it is immoral to use.
