When I do "rewind" of flash and start again, then after game over the leaderboard works fine. Also, it's annoying that it's not possible to turn off the music during the game, and making "space" turn off the music in main menu doesn't seem good. I often start the game with my own music playing in background, and then can't turn off the music in the game until I get back to main menu.

I'd agree that it is rather slow. And I did find it rather annoying when the color you need just WON'T spawn until you have to end up committing 'ballicide', then waiting for your ball to respawn, then having to deal with more balls that are flashing, as the color you need STILL doesn't spawn... Also there seems to be an odd glitch, where it sometimes it doesn't register that I hit the correct color; say I have red, and I CLEARLY hit a red, it registers as the wrong color and renders my ball useless. I only saw it happen about 4 times, but I think it occurred when I hadn't hit another ball for a long time (such as when my color just refused to spawn for me, then it finally does and I go about frantically cleaning up the other colors that I can finally combo up on). I know it can't be another ball underneath it, since with the z-indexing the ball that would potentially be underneath it would be bigger... Anyways, I have found something rather annoying with the Mochi Leaderboard. I notice that it saves my name in the field for each time I finish the game, but it won't let me press the Submit button until I do something in the field, such as enter a space and backspace it. I think instead of allowing you to submit after changing the field, it should simply check that the field has data in it. I managed to get to about 64k score (ranked 31 I think). Not too bad a game.

How did you manage to include 3.4 MB song in a game, resulting a 700 KB game? How did you compress it?? Just one question…
