Squares 2 is an addictive Flash game with a phat beat by Gavin Shapiro, and hosted on Newgrounds.com. Very similar in concept (and sound) to Manuel Fallmann's Bubbles collecting game, Squares 2 has you collecting all the black squares while avoiding all the red ones. Simply move the mouse to control the black square cursor that gets larger with each black square collected. Special 'round' squares act as power-ups that affect the game, such as slow motion, invincibility, big square, small square, etc. The game is extremely easy to pick up and play, and good fun for a quick diversion or two, or three or four.

Proof: ">http://www.voogru.com/images/scoresquares_omg.jpg>

And I did it with only 42 squares!

Posted by: voogru | February 8, 2005 2:34 PM

there is something that's just really fishy about that, voogru.

Posted by: jay | February 8, 2005 5:30 PM

Voogru, that is utterly impossible. I got 50 squares and it didn't do anything. Please don't lie. I hate people who do that type of thing.

Posted by: @ voogru | February 14, 2005 8:02 PM

acctually voog, you acctuly cud have done it like that. jay, just ask me how and ill tell you

Posted by: @ voogru | February 15, 2005 5:16 PM

Who ever made this game is genius. I got 122 :0

You click and drag the square out of the box and bam, it can't be touched anymore.

Posted by: rufflemachines | April 12, 2005 4:02 PM

stop using photoshop to edit pictures...

it is possible to get 7 mil. it's a glitch where essentially you have invincibility and you grow so large you grow bigger than the screen.

if you want to see a legit pic. it gets screwy after that and it slows down your computer alot. your score and square count will continually inrease and you won't have a square anymore.

Yay I got 11212! That's about as high as I can get!

Posted by: Kamehameha_cuty | June 7, 2005 3:28 PM

4271, Thats all about i have ever acheived :(
There is a way to produce such a high score as Voogru supposedly did earlier in the chat...
That is of course wait arround, not collecting the black squares, but also leaving out the red ones... As you may have noticed, you get approxamately 1 point per 1/2 a second, hence picking up squares speeds them up, but they don't speed up for time in the arena...
A bit for you to look into Jay

And happy gaming peeps...

Ok... I am able to get my square to disappear off the screen by clicking, dragging, and then unclicking... but I still am able to die. Am I the only one and why?

Posted by: Sean | August 30, 2005 5:07 PM
