I was able to get 200 000 pts by only shooting without stopping and thinking about the colors. And as you said, no way to post your score unless you fo subscribe yourself elsewhere. This is not a social game. It's a mini web game type that exists since a while. This is typically the type of “one-trick flash game” you already described.

While Pengapop is new to Facebook, it was created several years ago and is actually one of the original games of this style. You also mention the name of the company that created the game as Blackdot. It is actually Blockdot. (You did get the URL right!) We are aware that some of these games lack the social hooks. We are about to launch some new games that will be deeply integrated. So hold on for some really exciting apps, because they are on the way. Thanks for the write up.
