Description	This game has you as the usual bored child so often seen hanging around bus shelters (we've all been there, let's admit it) with nothing better to do than kick the crap out of it. And that's the plot. You have to destroy, by the skillful application of your boot, the bus shelter that keeps old ladies dry whilst waiting for the number 305 into town. After a small introduction, a badly rendered bus shelter is displayed, and your kick strength cycles from 0 to 10 rapidly. Hitting "K" will stop the counter and deliver the kick. Although pretty much any strength will do (which accurately describes the construction quality of council bus shelters) you can hurt yourself if you don't apply sufficient force. Having destroyed the shelter, you then head off for a smoke and a quick chat with the many admiring "slags" around you. As with so many CSSCGC entries, there's just no effort put in. You can't really do much other than succeed, and it would seem that the whole game is an excuse for poking fun at the kids that do this sort of thing. Not a high scorer, I'm afraid. 2/10.
Comments	A simple game that you can't lose, due to stupid programming! Ace! if the programmer had bothered to put line 410 before line 370, there would've been a rather boring game. So this is a tricky one. Was it intentional, or was it deliberate? I'll have to average this one and give it a 6/10, because let's be honest, it's a pretty crap game either way!
