Pink Elephants are Go

by kester
A game, about Dumbo, and the Pink Elephants on Parade.

Play

It’s a .swf, so it plays online, though it can be downloaded by right-click save as on the ‘download’ button at the side. Source can be provided if anyone wants it, which I doubt.

I had to finish off by just cutting off the level, because things mysteriously stopped working after the amount playable. Oh well, I then built the scoring system around what’s there, so you’ll recieve a ‘grade’ depending on how completely you puffed away the pink elephants.

It’s simple, but it’s also complete with sound, menus, art, and enough gameplay to classify as a ‘game’ rather than a demo. No unicorns or turnips, sadly.

hehe, this game was kind of creepy, but cool all the same. I’m no good at getting combos though, highest grade is A D=

btw, why have ‘z’ to shoot instead of mouse click?

The start is great but then I began slapping my laptop z key like never before. I was thinking the same as GirlFlash, why z?

Not that it hampers the game. All good fun. There was something about the background graphic scrolling that looks just right too me.

Rank D is bad right? :(

Nice work! I love the whistling, and like rwip said, the background looked really nice.

I finished the game without shooting.. (Next time, I’ll read the instructions first..) but I still got a F, not fair! :)

I like Z, it means you don’t accidentally lose focus on the window by clicking outside it. Also, it’s useful for laptops like mine, where it means clicking the clicker would obstruct the other hand’s movement around the little pad.

I should make it clear that Z can be held to fire, too.
