Bounce it like it's hot

Wednesday, July 7, 2010 9:40:13 AM

The soccer World Cup is coming to an end and we thought it would be fun to exit it with a game!

Bounce is a widget where the goal of the game is to keep the ball in the air by clicking it repeatedly. We want to find out who's the best bouncer on My Opera.

Sign up for a My Opera account (or log in), so you can comment in this article.
When you think you got an awesomely staggering highscore, snap a screenshot of it and upload it to your My Opera blog or photo album.
Post a link to your image high score as a comment in this post.
Contest ends Friday July 9!

The best "football bouncers" will receive some sweet Opera swag.

This is an incredibly addictive time waster. Damn you guys!

Pallab DeIndyan # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 10:04:25 AM

This game is hard! I am stuggling to get past a dozen successful bounces.

But how?

Syedheartreaper # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 10:25:30 AM

when you click the ball right in between, it will go off right up, there's the trick.

and you need some luck too. keeping trying helps too.

Swag is a very broad term

it can be notebooks, footballs, t-shirts etc. We'll contact the winner(s) and ask what they would like

Syedheartreaper # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 11:54:28 AM

coooL!!!!,

Pallab DeIndyan # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 12:07:44 PM

i was about to ask the poster to remove his post, so that no one cheats.

Erik Shikerinerikshi # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 1:06:05 PM

Syed, don't cheat

selurus # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 1:32:27 PM

Another cool game but not approved for Mobile users.

This game requires a mouse.

Arun Kumarmarunkmr # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 2:22:01 PM

I find the ball slowing down when you zoom the widget to 200% by right clicking at least for me.
Any one can get high score with this.
So i think there is no worth playing this competition.

Çağlar Yeşilyurtgreench # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 2:58:57 PM

How can you distinguish between cheat and not cheat? Picture is not editted. I cheated.

Hell yeah! The game becomes a walk in the park when zoomed in at 200%. It's a good thing that Opera would randomly chose the winners, instead of going by high scores.

Erik Shikerinerikshi # Wednesday, July 7, 2010 10:13:24 PM

by now, you all know how to cheat. GREAT.

Still, post your highscores anyway. If you want swag...

Something tells me you didn't cheat. Great job

Alexislexiz08 # Thursday, July 8, 2010 9:44:07 AM

Err, the widget won't fit in my monitor when I zoom it to 200%.

Arun Kumarmarunkmr # Thursday, July 8, 2010 12:35:56 PM

The zoom does not stop with 200% it can be increased even more by pressing NUM+

GrKimi # Thursday, July 8, 2010 1:25:46 PM

I used a pentium III (like the one in my avatar

) and I stacked the ball at the top left corner. The rest are history!!

Thanks buddy

mistressEVILmissevilat # Sunday, July 11, 2010 12:22:31 PM

Pass, even if I cheat by zooming in, I can barely get on score board. This game is impossible to play with "Designed in California, Assembled in China" mouse.
