The 25% of Flash games is bull.

The glass was ordered at the wrong size and it was decided to run with it. The punching through the screen is a load of crock. Im guessing here that no other CPR glasses have this oddity??

A little about screening glass...

 chances are that the screening table is a vacuum fit - in other words the glass is sucked tight to the table by a vacuum and held in place. However, registration has to be kept at all times and to do this, it is normal to have some sort of framing that the glass sits in.  The frame would be made to the same thickness as the glass to prevent damage to the screen itself when squeedjying. Were i doing these glasses then common sense would have a frame at the start of squeedjy to prevent whats been described in the reply from CPR. A simple corner angle at one top edge would have the glass snug - sometimes this isnt necessary if the vacuum table is a good strong one.

Its not a bad reply from CPR - but i wouldnt be taking any of it in - the run was a cock up and they decided to float them on the market regardless... i mean after all...... you are VERY grateful for anything arent you?
