The full screen mode is written with jQuery mobile.. it actually works pretty well on iPhone and Android.

Very cool - I just tried it on my iPhone and it worked flawlessly. About how long did this project take?

The game itself was a last minute addition that was hacked together in about 20 hours. The intention was to add more levels... but we ran out of time.

The dev manager The most useless character in the game. Nobody is quite sure what this character does.

Can't agree more, :P

I love the "Cease and desist - Rovio" testimonial. Wouldn't surprise me if that became a reality since they're selling merch. Awesome idea though.

Try filling out the order form ;) Rovio was invested in by Accel Partners - the same group that invested $68m into Atlassian. There's a bit of a connection.

I can't decide which I like better, "In 80 characters or less, define a class object" or Chuck Norris jokes I've heard lately.

Ladies and gentlemen, April Fool's day has arrived (at least in Australia).

I had a lot more respect for this before I realized it was an April Fools joke. Why limit such creativity to one day in April that's just awash in the inane?

Yup. Wouldn't mind seeing this as a real web game though. Could be fun.

But I'd really like the T-shirt. Please?

I don't think anyone here truly thinks that there's a time restriction on creativity. April Fool's day just gives us all an excuse to be a little silly, and collectively indulge in some light humour.

If anything, the day acts as a sort of prompt for this kind of creative work. It doesn't limit creativity, stuffing it into a once-a-year box. Instead, it encourages more creative projects that otherwise wouldn't occur.

Haha, I was very enthusiastic, finally a fun game I'd like to play. Then was disappointed when I realized it was an April Fool's joke. It's really funny though. Props for Atlassian.

What I love the most about it is that I don't see any flash there. It's all HTML.

I'll second that. I would happily pay good money for that shirt.
