Hi [banned user],

Your code is missing at least an END SUB at the end. I swear I swept that net over the butterfly several times (in the physically correct sweep direction of the net), it doesn't seem to catch? This isn't supposed to be like Ken's game trying to click a button that jumps every time the mouse enters it's borders, is it?? LOL

You definitely have the old arcade style down!  I like Rocket too and look forward to more of a game with either, if it pleases you.  :)

Although I am not a Lepidopterologist, I still found your "style" of game, intriguing. Very "old school". Cool...

I was a little disappointed, when after playing for a few moments, the butterfly did not mutate into Mothra...

I too look forward to more...

Programming isn't difficult, only it's  consuming time and coffee

Yeah, code didn't paste well, Hunter.

If all that was missing was the END SUB line, then I got it to run well.

Love the butterfly moving around. Don't love the "trail" that the net leaves.

I never managed to catch it, although the net was over it quite often. How do I go about it?

This is a cool game. I had more luck using my finger on the touchscreen to catch the butterfly than using the actual mouse. Damn, I wish I didn't eat Cheetos before that though.
