Sometimes it's nice when you wake up and find that something you know has changed. Epic Combo Redux proves that a new look doesn't always mean you should immediately panic.

Your businessman is much more modern than he used to be, but he's still got the same old plan: hit those turtles and make them go flyin'. Every bounce gets you a point. Every point gets you some money.

With that money, you can buy lasers and machine guns and bumpers and lights. Set them up around the screen and drop the hammer again. Suddenly, you're getting ridiculous combos.

As you can see, the combo counter has a stupid number of digits, and once you get to a certain level, the game pretty much plays itself! It's exactly the sort of thing for when you want to balance goofing off with inflexible time-sensitive deadlines.

We're not saying you'll finish Epic Combo Redux, only that you'll enjoy it while you play… even though it changes the visuals you already knew and loved. See? Sometimes changes can be good! Also, please don't forget to post your high score in the comments. We'll be naming our weekly Quality Post Champion at the top of next week.

I considered going to "Unlimited Mode" and letting it run all night, then taking a screenshot of THAT... but I had a deadline.

Hi, I'm one of the writers. My powers are limited but I'll do what I can.

So is this an unlimited challenge or time mode? Or either?

I'm averaging about 150,000 a minute. That should work out to about 9,000,000 an hour.

Got my timed game score down to 9:16 (after trying way too many times to get under 10:00). Fun game -- thanks for pointing it out!

Yeah, I played it. Wasn't impressed. Sorry woot, Kinda fun but kinda after you get your 6th trip for upgrades it's not that great.

I got unlimited mode running but then i closed it by mistake, usually I'm upset when that happens. Nope.

Fearing for my legacy, I resumed slacking off at work and got my timed game score down to 6:28. Woo!

So, I saw that people were doing Unlimited and joined in.
Okay, I figure 1.5 billion is enough for my CPU which is stressed by the flashy flash.
But yeah, I'm crunching turtles at a rate of 60,000/second (or 3,600,000/minute).

It's just turtles all the way down...
