Uber Pool

Uber Pool is a 2006 sports Flash game developed by Jacob Grahn.
The game was the last one he made while working for Mousebreaker. It was also the first one to credit him under his "Jiggmin" alias, as it was the first to be released on his then-new site mrjiggmin.com.
Uber Pool went on to become the most successful game of the Uber series with over a million verified plays."Calculating Play Counts". Jiggmin Wiki. July 10, 2020. Despite that, it's one of Jiggmin's few games to receive mixed reviews, with criticism aimed at its controls and time limit. Jiggmin has defended them, expressing his dislike at standard pool game controls and feeling no time limit made the game too easy."Newgrounds: Reviews for Uber Pool, page 20" (Response to Pinballchico's review)"Newgrounds: Reviews for Uber Pool, page 20" (Response to latexinyoass' review)
==Gameplay==
Uber Pool plays similarly to real pool but with only 2 rules: players can't pot the cue ball or let the silver time bar run out.
Players begin with 4 lives and the time bar refills whenever they pot a ball. Power-ups are available to assist or hinder them, and new ball types are introduced periodically that cause different effects.

==Trivia==
*The announcer is voiced by Andy Dennis, a role he'd also play in Rolley-Ball.
*Jiggmin later updated the game to reflect his site's shortened URL. He forgot to center the text, however, making it incorrectly left-aligned underneath the other options on the results screen.
*A teaser for the game was used as Jiggmin's signature on Brackenwood while it was in development.
*The game was uploaded to Kongregate in 2008 by, unusually, DragonGamez rather than Jiggmin."Uber Pool on Kongregate" It was later removed in 2023 after DragonGamez's account was deleted.
*It's impossible to play the official game with Flash Player versions above 19, as Flash's version checker only reads their first number ("3" instead of "30") and won't let the game load.
