Haplo, would you consider enabling this as a high score game? Several of us have played it, and its very enjoyable.

It's extremely rare that such a thing would work, but I had some spare time today so I tried (several different ways actually), unfortunately without success. I guess it's because so many of these games were programmed years ago and just aren't compatible with our scoring system. So if the game isn't already high-score enabled, it's like a one in a thousand shot to get it to work. Believe me I'd rather have more high score games than less so I'd turn it on for all of them if I could |

And there is no chance to contact the original programmer to see what can be done? |

I don't know of any way to contact him/her. When the game first loads it advertises "gamesonly.net" which doesn't exist anymore and redirects to neongames.com. He or she is probably long gone. |

ah...I have another question: I believe some of the games that have to be played for the "achievements" are no longer available... could you perhaps connect those achievemants to other games? |

Great idea, I didn't realize any were broken. I see the Mario game is gone, are there any others that are broken? Also, do you have any ideas for games that would make good replacements?
What I was trying to do when I set those achievements up, is make a goal/objective that is not just "score X points". So like the gnome pinball game for example, I played it for a while and saw that if you did defeat the king it automatically gave you a million points. So it worked great as an achievement "Kill the gnome king." So for replacement candidates I'd like to find a game where there is something you can accomplish in the game to get a certain score. So that it ends being about more than just the score.
Other possibilities are games where is a "perfect" possible score. |
