#12I imagine that you can draw pictures with this, where dark colors are represented by a lot of small bubbles. Not sure what the algorithm for that would look like though.

#13reminiscent of http://www.koalastothemax.com/ (although more mobile friendly, as koalas is mouseover based)

#14Might be better if the pictures looked 'full', then 'deflated'. The way they are presented, as individual deflated bubbles, they look more like condoms. Instead of a sheet of bubbles.
I second this, including the condom comparison. Sound of the sound effects are a little off, though that might be solved with a little more variety of sounds. It also felt a little laggy from pressing a bubble to the popping sound. This meant that I couldn’t pop lots of them and very quickly. On the whole, it’s a nice idea. The only problem is that infinite bubblewrap is a concept as old as the web so it will take a…
The sounds are really off. They sound like they're clipped and lack the fullness/roundness that is present in an actual bubble wrap pop.

#15I love these web toys, but this needs a way to zoom!

I agree that they should be full, but since they divide into 4 new (full) bubbles there is no way to display a deflated image. I guess it would be too uniform.

#17Nice! I wrote electronic tension sheet about 25-30 odd years ago (probably for the Amiga iirc). It wasn't as nice as this.

An ironic comment considering your nom de guerre; this might be the seminally frustrated take.

Noticed too. I thought it was deliberate, how a slightly random reward increases reinforcement.

#20Are you the author? How many levels does it have?
Using the developer tools, each click divides a DIV into 4 tiny DIVs, so it's probably infinite (or until the DIV is rounded to 0 pixel wide and doesn't get mouse clicks anymore).
