Pretty tough

Well, at least the first time around. By the second time,you knew all the boss attack and movement patterns and it's far easier. It took me two times to get all the medals, and it got really boring the second time. You fight the same things over and over exactly the same as the first time.

The animation has a very unique style to it, and I kind of liked it, yet felt it's a little too warped for me. The music was pretty fitting for the game. For the character movement though, you tend to slide way too much and it's hard to control. Also, you only really needed to mash the S button through the whole game. Just saying only one attack button was really needed and the combos were not worth the effort to use.

Ok, here are some bugs. I found that when I was near full health, and was hit by the final boss, I was instantly brought down to no health. Now, this only happened once, but I was very annoyed. Also, when you fall through the floor, I actually fell through the SECOND floor. Now, this may have been because I had moved when falling. So I had to fight the last boss by jumping under him and holding A.

But, what kind of a game is perfect? I still think overall it deserves a 5/5 and 10/10.

ItsTheAshtray responds:

Ah, yeah. That health problem came up once or twice on me too. I've been trying to figure that one out. As for the floor issue, that's big news to me and I'm looking into it right now. Thanks for the notifications :)

Interesting and fairly unique game

It's a pretty fun game once you get used to it.

Very nice game guide:
The strategy I used in the game was buff my sentry guns and base damage first while using the cresent gun. I kept 2 setry guns on the field at all times at first. More would be too costly, less and your base would take too much damage and suck resources into repairing it. Eventually I maxed sentry and base damage, and moved on to upgrading my cresent modifier. After I maxed this, I noticed I needed more sentry guns. Add more as needed. VERY IMPORTANT! Sentry guns are best to be placed at the same time to decrease costs! Or else you'll be paying 450 times 3 to replace sentry guns instead of it averaging out to 300 times 3! This strategy saves so many resources, I pretty much maxed out everything on the last level. Good luck.

The thing is, it's not obious enough that your damage is based off of your BASE DAMAGE X GUN MODIFIER (I'm assuming this is correct). So, if you were only upgrading the cresent gun up to max, it would be 20 X 1.9 = 38 damage. You max base damage, 47 X 1 = 47 damage. Max both and you're doing very near to 100 damage, times 3 if you get really close, making it the most powerful gun in the game if used properly! The thing here would be to balance cost and boost to damage.

The controls were ok, but I feel that your ship was a little too out of control in its movements, causing it to be a pain to manuver well.

The sentry guns were a great idea. Maybe you could change the different weapons it could use, like idfferent sentry guns. And instead of them getting upgraded with a single upgrade in the store, make it more on an individual basis on the shop screen.

I will give it 9 stars and 5/5. A video game is like an essay. It is never perfect, yet can always be improved upon. I really hope to see a new game from you soon.

AtelierLucid responds:

Hey, you figured out the basic strategy :D
Yep the crescent do 3 times damage, and 3 times more critical hit than the other gun (critical is counted in each bullet).

And good strategy at the sentry. I tried that and make much killing streak, and i maxed all upgrade even in 3 levels before the last level, giving me much resource to repair the NESTS.

Thanks for the review and guide! :)

Great Game!

This game is AWSOME! I had to play it a few times on easy to beat it. To the people who say this game is too hard, it's because you're lacking the skills or you're not smart enough to beat a boss or something. I'm probably one of the few people that actually beat it. I'll tell you some tips.

WARNING! Contains spoilers

For the tank, keep shooting and jump over the bullets it shoots. Easy.

The giant spider tank is a little tricky. BUT if you have enough skills you don't even need to use grenades OR lose a life. You could just stay on the platforms near the center and bottom and shoot at the circle thing to kill it and it can't hit you because it's turret is too long. Really easy for me but some people may need some practice.

Ok, the next big thing is the giant flying rock tank. This is kind of hard, even for me. If you don't use grenades. If you saved all the grenades so far, you should have 20 or so. Bombard it. Not too many though, save about 10 for later.

After you enter the nazi base, there is this cloning machine. Don't walk up to it. Stay on the left side and keep shooting at the machine and nazis that are in the way.

After that? Just grenade the bosses.

There are cheats at the end.

You're now probably wondering why I wasted my time writing this. I'm bored.

I-smel responds:

A good tip is: When you jump over a tank's bullet, throw a grenade. Then it only takes about 3 or 4 shots.

What you said about the first boss is really just cheating =/

That second boss was a damn spaceship. WHY DOES NOBODY GET THAT? It must be the colour.
When it shoots like regular, dodging the bullets is easy; just alternate between flying to the bottom right, then back to the left when it stops, and flying to the top right, then back to the left when it stops. Keep shooting the panels orbiting it.
When you've smashed all the panels, it gets ridiculous. Fire all the grenades you saved up right there.
I can't believe I never thought of this: On the cloning vats, the tank comes in when you hit a box on the RIGHT side of the screen. I guess it never shows up if you stay on the left. Makes sense, but I made it and I allways die there. How did I not notice that?
There's no trick to the other bosses. Except to stay on the right for the last one.

[The Walls - Part Three]

It was ok...

...but the lag was just killing me. Especially at the part where the hands come out of the ground. It took at least a minute. It went too slowly, and yes I turned the quality down to low. Mabye if there weren't so many blur effects going on it wouldn't lag so much. It really took away the feel of the game if it went that slowly.

magic585 responds:

Fair enough, I will try to cut down on the blurs. I personally like the atmosphere of that scene at that speed, but I have strange tastes.

[Artifission RPG chp1]

Nice

I really loved how the battle system worked. I don't really see why people have the problem with battles freezing in the middle of them because it works for me. I played the prologue to this game and it had the same unbeatable ending which i tried to win at (but failed). Anyway it was a good game with nice graphics and gameplay. Really enjoyed it.

Fickludd responds:

Agreed, the battles don't freeze for me either!
Oh and the end boss is not at all unbeatable :D. He has a weakness this time ^^.

Thanks for the review!

[The Pick of Destiny]

Good Game

I really liked these kind of games. I thought the choice of songs was very nice and it had nice clean simple graphics. Even though everyone else thought it was too hard I thought it was too easy becase I beat the last pick on my first try. But I did all the other songs anyway because the songs were great. Hope you make more games like this ^_^

LilDwarf responds:

Thanks alot. All one needs is practice and a quick eye, that is all.
