yup there was a bandwidth quota from AppEngine. I activated billing and it should work now

ok i allocated additional bandwidth, the game should be up and running with full music! Enjoy!

the music server overserved its quota. for a 300kb song file, it reached 1 GB pretty fast!

thanks! it took a lot of integrating+checking+debugging, making sure the loading doesn't break halfway. Look and feel are my top priority

i think multiplayer requires some node.js magic. Don't have a clue how that works! the forums at ImpactJS had some discussions on node.js, will have a look

the thing is, if I make the screen larger, the game will lag (lower FPS). Below 45 fps, the game isn't that fun to play. I do realize that old NES games can be fullscreened any time of the day. Wish I could do that in my case.

nope it won't load on an iPad. Sound is not well built on the iOS/Android browser, so I figured, if the game is going to suck anyway, might as well don't build it for mobile.

the game was tested on Chrome 10 Safari 5 Firefox 4 Opera 11 some users with IE9 reported some errors, I couldn't debug because i'm on OSX. Please let me know if there're any cheap methods to get an IE9.
