I Kick You: Flash Gaming for Facebook

Ice 09-02-2007

Pic To Game, the service that allows users to create their own Flash games, has launched their first Facebook app, a game called “I Kick You“.

The app combines Flash technology and the social networking aspects of Facebook to allow you create a game in three steps. Install it, pick the friend you want to kick, adjust the image, and get to kicking.

Once you pick a friend, you can invite them to see you kick them in real time, or they can look at your results afterwards. This could, of course, result in some retaliatory kicking. An item will also appear in your newsfeed each time you create a game.

PicTo Gamehas had over 60,000 games created, and 10,000,000 widget views in the last 3 months.

When trash talking between each other isn't enough now you can kick em when they down. I could see this pssing off alot of people and people start taking it too far.

I think it's a great idea, a lot of people will use it to mutual amusement

Harlinda

haha yea i like this one... i can use it

Raven

I think its pretty cool but when people start taking pics of other people you know sooner or later someone is goig to get offended by it. If a simple comment on a myspace profile can send people in rage, think what a game kicking them around will do to them.

SamiJo

yea I agree with you Dream, and if a comment on someones page can send them into orbit, this will only make things worse. I think this is just asking for trouble

This isn't something new, this has been around for a very long time. But think about it. Since the site is being over took by young teenagers or just stupid people. You know something like this is going to end up just pissing off the wrong person. Eventually the games may get alot worse then just kicking each other but that may be enouh for some people. Good ideas lead to bad things from stupid people.

I hate how assholes can make something that's fun for a few a huge fucking problem for everybody else. I would just tell them to grow the fuck up

That happens so often on sites. Then it comes down to the owners to decided where the feature is worth it or is it bringing in alot of money and forget about the problems that may or does come up from it.

Im with yall on that cause i know i would be getiing all pissed if they were kicking me around, damnnn why do they do stupid shit like that anyways?

Raven

You know if you piss off the wrong person sooner or later its proably going to happen. You know they had to think about this already. This was a giveme that something could happen like this. That page prograly has enough ads in it to make enough money around it just for that reason.

See it depends who does it. Like if a friend of yours does it you know its in all good fun. But say someone you not cool wit does it. You know they ment something by it and its just going to eat at you.
