Flash In The Brain Pan: Pogo Swing

[RSS FEED]

There was a time when the playground was sacred. As long as kids weren't chanting FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT the teachers would stand over in the corner and ignore all the stupid playground games. Want to throw a kickball at someone's head? Sure! Want to go down the slide face-first? Builds character! Want to to a 360 on the swings? Why, that's the Nobel Prize of childhood! So it hurt us so much to find that Pogo Swing seems to completely prevent that over-the-top swing from happening. Or maybe we just quit too soon. Can you show us how it's done?

 

 

Of course, the rules of the game say Pogo Swing is about launching your kid forward, not up. Use the arrows keys to go left and right and make that swing, er, swing.

 

 

The farther you go, the more money you'll make, and the more upgrades you can buy. Like, say the pogo stick in the title. Once you get THAT, you can enjoy the really interesting part of the game, and you can start hopping your way down the yard.

 

 

There's a lot of terrain out there between the rainbows and the mushrooms, so give us some screenshots if you make it farther than we did. We're curious too! And maybe next time someone will write a game that just lets us spin over the bar. Don't laugh, it still tears us apart. It would have changed EVERYTHING.
