Same here. FF 1.5/Linux. Grey screen; dead -- took ages for that to load too.
I'm sorry to say that I have a strong dislike for Flash sites (personal preference). I'd rather have a functional layout that can be accessed in all browsers (including Lynx). It bugs me when developers ingore the fact that not everybody uses IE in Windows. The thing that bugs me most is when I go to a site under linux and I just get a page saying "Please upgrade to the latest version of internet explorer to use our site".

It looks like the creator is trying to emulate this (more on the main page, too) but the download time for each pageload is terrible.
it is a cool site but completely over the top. if it were something on my computer i wouldn't mind but that thing is a beast of resources and bandwidth
It's taken 25 minutes to load a turtle looking creature walking along the screen, and once I press him I've gone inside another loader which looks like it's going to take equally as long.
