Fun to play with a stylus and touch screen! The game over screen names are a laugh! Nice work

Definitely fits the theme and I really like the sounds! Good job! I'm just a Snooze Ooze tho... so who am I to judge.

Strong commitment to theming. Huge fan of the voice clips for the rankings at the end.

Great main menu, also loved the sound effects and music (nice composition!)

Don't really see how nose-picking is connected to the theme though, or why you'd pick boogers off a gray screen with squares growing in all corners.

I have to say I admire your unwillingness to tell people how to start the game. :D But it did mean I couldn't play it.

Cool idea for the game. I wished the nose wasn't just the title screen. The sound effects are great, but the music reminds me too much of a certain song from a certain movie, it sounds good but is it ok to use it? (I'm just asking 'cause I don't know, really).
I'm only a snot slob... Has anyone made it to booger king?

@siridakis, You are right, it sounds a lot like that certain movie. But it wasn't intentional. When I noticed, I just felt like it was funny, to have that agent feel, digging your own nose :) I'm sure this is fine according to LD rules and copyright. It's only three notes that are the same. But boy, they are set in stone for that franchise!

@garygreen, I'm sorry you couldn't play it, but the title is a hint! Don't you feel like picking the nose?? :)

Only managed to get into the game twice (by manically clicking all over the nose and moving the mouse) and both times it was instantly game over. Not going to rate because I was unable to play. At the very least I would redesign how to start the game.

@garygreen @balance686 @jessefreeman, I can see some people have troubles starting the game, so I will reveal what to do! You just have to click the green booger in the nose to start! Hope you have time to give it another go!

Wow, really intense game! I loved the sound effects and music, and my high score was 198. Reminds me of online FPS aim training programs, haha

Hahahahaha loved it! Yeah it pretty much feels like mine but more sticky. I would like that the boogers don't get stuck inside the walls, but what ever, I love your idea! Nothing to do that's because we had the same one. Good work dude!
