The game, as it is on the site, is, I think, totally unsuitable for the
FR. The gameplay is completely mouse/static monitor oriented. A port of
the game would have to switch to accelerometer/static view based
interface (the dynamic view simply makes no sense, as the view switches
left and right as the ball changes direction, which would seem totally
unnatural in the context of a held tilted screen). The FAQ on the site
specifically states that changing the zoom would entail completely
redesigning all of the levels, a statement I tend to agree with.
