For Windows 7, here's where those files probably are located given a standard setup

C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#Shared Objects\

where [username] is your windows username, and [random folder name] is a seemingly random bunch of characters. Hopefully there should be only one. If not, and you wish to retain all JiG flash game progress ever, you will have to repeat Jay's instructions starting with the oldest and overwriting if there is a conflict when moving.

It took me quite a while to realise that the animation was actually a game, and I've found it quite a nice distraction from the slightly more productive things of my day.

I was then spending quite a while just letting it run on while I upgraded things...Then I realised that

Wow...Well done on managing to hide a game with good distraction qualities and gimmicks, jay =)

This game is awesome. We should review it.

Unfortunately, this transfer will not actually happen, because I'm stopping all the little men from moving your data to the new network. Foolish little men! Your efforts are meaningless!

You can throw them too!

A small bug I noticed is that if you just quick-click on a box, it gets freezes and it gets stuck in the foreground.

i'm here to help JIG! I'm almost at 200, how much more do you need?

You can even upgrade things by moving your mouse to the top!

I just realized that the sun moves in correspondence with the time! (ie. at noon it's in the middle)

A list of what each upgrade does, from left to right:

I'll keep this open in my browser for a while. Very clever, JiG!

Nuts! I left the screen in the background to let the guys build up some currency, then I forgot and restarted my computer. :(

By the way, with the

I noticed that the sun changes position *and* the sky turns colors with the time.

So I've been playing this for a creepy amount of time. Do I ever win or does it just end when the sun goes down?

@ShodoKat Wait, it ends when the sun goes down? :O

@Kalistic: Nobody knows yet. The sun hasn't gone down completeley yet since this is the first day it's out.

Once the Throw is upgraded high enough, the only thing worthwhile buying is more workers.

Oh! Look at the pretty stars! *stares*

I am ashamed to say that I'm STILL playing. I don't have stars yet so I will see this whole thing through.

Darn you Jay and staff for stealing away hours of my time everyday. D:

@ShodoKat You probably don't have stars because it sets by your system clock, and it isn't night where you are. It's almost twelve here.

Simply addicting.

The game seems to disregard my upgrades/run really slowly when it is not on-screen. Does anyone else have this issue?

That aside, it's really fun.

Hey! Some of those little guys have really good arms and really crappy aim. I just saw one of 'em throw a box OVER the building!

Seems like it doesn't keep playing if it's in the background of the browser -- for example, in another tab -- but it works just fine if it's in the foreground of a *program* that's in the background. When I had a different tab open to keep browsing elsewhere, no progress, but when I opened another browser window, the little guys kept working right along.

LOL, I thought the point was to stop them reaching the other building. Too much tower defense.

Awwwww, I had every upgrade maxed and came here to the discussion page to crow about it and all of the upgrades disappeared. Neither refreshing the page nor the browser's back button worked. I has a sad now.

Maxed out:

Very pointful.

It was enjoyable at the beginning watching the stickmen move in different speeds, upgrading was cheap, and I was making money fast, then came the hard/boring part, when the game doesn't auto-play itself even when I'm on the same page ! (I tried playing Robot wants JIG aftergame, you know up there at top) I had to face the browser at all times, so here's what I eventually did :

I DID IT. I UPGRADED EVERYTHING TO MAX. I win.

Now to get back on with my life...

Ooh. That sky is lovely, but not exactly accurate. I've got a sunset picture at 6:30pm clock and sun time (I know they're the same, because the Greenwich meridian is only a few miles East of here). In the middle of December it's been dark for a couple of hours.

Hmmm... I wonder whether it takes the time on refresh - and sleeping stops the clock?

It's because it's December, I think. It probably goes by an average time. ;)

Yay! Does the move mean I'll be able to play One Chance again? :D

[That depends on when you first played it. If you played it before Friday, then yes, you should be able to play it again now. -Jay]

Yes! I have addiction! Even though I upgraded EVERYTHING to the MAX, it's still fun to watch.

I'm curious why you didn't simply move the fizzlebot domain to the global content delivery network. Cost? Branding? Copyright litigation?

None of my business.. I'm just curious.

I'd also be interested in learning about where to find such a delivery network, what it costs, your visitors/bandwidth per month, how much you pay for content, etc....

Awesome! Thanks, Jay; I always enjoy learning about successful entrepreneurs and what goes into running a site of this caliber. Incidentally, I really appreciate the hosted games; linked games have a tendency to disappear or end up containing inappropriate content.

I went to some great parties at RIT.. and I'll never forget the frigid 1/4-mile wind tunnel you had to walk to get to class.. Brrr!

I love this game!!!

Is there anyway I could possibly download it?

Motion Twin is moving again! Check their site to see a spiffed up Moving Game.

Does anyone realize you need to throw 1200 boxes into the building to make the steel box upgrade actually worth it? :|
