Maybe we have a round of sharing some wacky, or just plain cool Flash games?

I have a blast with this [slapping duel game](http://nigoro.jp/game/rosecamellia/rosecamellia.php). It got a storyline too! [Warning: Cheesy]

I knew it… addicted. Can’t get past the 3rd (old) lady… perhaps I’ll try at work tomorrow with a real mouse.

[This one](http://www.adultswim.com/games/game/index.html?game=gigoloAssassin) is my favourite - Gigolo Assassin (point and click type adventure). Probably NSFW - the hero is a little animated man running around in a tuxedo jacket and a red, sparkly thong!

This reminds me off a desktop navy game where you have 6 ports on both side and you can only build ships and adjust the route of the ships. Does anyone have any idea what I am talking about? I played it but I have lost the link.

Yep, sure did. Solutions might vary, but the one I came up with was:

A conveyor with sequential rotators that bumped the balls over and a bit upward until they could roll down an incline. Took me some tweaking before the balls would do what they were supposed to, but it worked.
