This version of xWUNG is a port of cactus' earlier release, originally created using the Game Maker engine. You play by moving the mouse to swing a ball. The ball is attached to a wire, and both of them eliminate enemies on contact. Debris will destroy your ship, so avoid them whenever possible.

There are bosses that appear with regular intervals, and new enemies are introduced as the game progresses. The single power-up found in the game allows you to nullify certain enemy projectiles. Good scores can be achieved by making successive combos. (Kongregate link)

Name: xWUNG
Developer: cactus, VilleK
Category: Action
Type: Browser

this reminds me of the freeware game pendulumania.

so lets see if i make it into the top 10...

allright...
2n place, after you Tim ;)

so.
1st place.
enough for today :-D

conclusion: very well made game.

to get a pretty hi score you have to, as said, make extreme combos...

so i have managed it to get about 35.000 before the first boss appears.
how...well i waited in the beginning until many enemies were on the screen and then...i started to make a swinging super combo ;)
