That version looked like an utter failure, like few people would risk putting in an entire Lincoln of quarters on it.
I don't remember if the NGB version had "sparks" or a difficulty level, and the sound effects were far superior. I mean, when the player finished a filled area, it did a short pling. When the "spring" touched the player's line, it did a slightly longer pling, it was my favorite sound. Otherwise it was "muzak" a lot like an amateur dance song remix ROFL.
The "slow" drawing really had no point for me with sparks around, I mean, I would never play the original game even if I got 100 chances for one quarter. Leave it to an expert mode. Intermediate then is the "spring" moving as the program stands now, and beginner have it move more slowly and the player is disallowed to use "slow" command. That's so he/she becomes more comfortable playing the game.
I thought it was 2/3, but 3/4 is difficult for sure. The "spring" suddenly could move sideways while a player tries to reach an edge of the screen. It happened to me too often on NGB...
