It's an interesting idea, but it couldn't really hold my interest very well. I'm all for interesting ideas, but even if one is original, it's not always going to turn out to be fun.
I appreciate the work you did for this though, but it needs something more to actually make it fun.

It won't register my mouse clicks. Did you handle mouse clicks in a MOUSE_DOWN event or a KEY_DOWN event and check for the key with key code 1? If you did the latter, then you need to fix it, cause the mac version of flash player doesn't recognize the mouse as a key.
Author's Response:
I set a bool to true with MOUSE_DOWN then if thats true on MOUSE_MOVE it drew (basically), rather than setting the event in mouse down then removing in mouse up, but, still, yeah. You told me it works now anyway, strange >_< I'll look into it :)

I know you're using AS2, cause there's a lot less underscores and roots in AS3.
FINISH UP!

I know where you got inspiration from!
Anyway it was a bit short, and the cutting out of the music when you weren't collecting canes was almost annoying, but the was was good overall.
You probably could have spent a little more time on it. If I had to guess, you spent no more than a week on it.
Anyway I'd love to see more cohesive minigame compilations from different people, it's a fun genre to work with.
However you took the easy way out and did separate cutscenes instead of in game cutscenes. DAMN YOU FOR DOING IT THE EASY WAY!
Author's Response:
Haha well of course I got the inspiration from you guys =)
Minigame compilations are really great to see, I remember the first one I saw was by Buzzwerd and TrueDarkness, Prehistoric. I really want to see more stuff like this as well.
And sorry for taking the easy way out for the game cutscenes =( I'm not as awesome as you glaiel :P

But the animation was bad, and you sound like you haven't hit puberty yet, and you're responses to reviews make you sound like an utter n00b.
Keep practicing.

The problem is there isn't anything original about it, and the game you're tributing is available for free on the internet as it is. A tribute needs to be better than the original, or a free version of a console game, or have a unique twist, to justify a good rating. A simple clone of a flash game, while it might be good practice, isn't very impressive as a submission.
I know you're only 11 though, and I started flash when I was 10 or 11 too, so here's some suggestions and tips.
1. The level design you have is very bland and boring. There's not much difference between them, they don't get that much harder as the game goes along, and the powerups aren't used in a very creative manner. You need to work on a difficulty curve, but also work on implementing powerups in a creative way instead of a "They're just here for no reason" way.
2. If you decheck "Use compression" and set the sound to RAW in the export settings, it won't take 15 minutes to export for testing. Make sure to reset the fields for the final builds though, or you'll end up with a 40 MB file.
3. Try some original game ideas.

However, with something like this, the charm in the first one was how original it was (bar the fact that it was based off a commercial). I wouldn't have minded this if it did something to distinguish itself from Allen Awesome's one, however it was basically the same, but from a different person. Even the hand people, how highly unoriginal.
It was still decent though, but I prefer originality.
