This game is hard, which is good, but I think it is for the wrong reasons. Needs a bit of polish on ennemy waves or startup powerups. That whole time time slow-time freeze-invulnerability didn't make much sense either.

I enjoyed it still, been a while there wasn't any good space shooter, thanks.

I don't get it why this has such a low score compared to the game quality. Pretty, nice gameplay, nice sound effects, nice music. What else do these low scorers wants?? plus it's free for christ sake.. stop zero bombing, people.

That's a fair game. Here is a bug report: when you dash into the next level (from the chest level to the first boss) your character doesn't work, you can't do anything and you die.

The double jump upgrade comes back even if you purchased it

Graphics are ok, but menus are kinda bare-bone. No level except bosses, grinding is too high for the begining, you need to make pretty much everything better. Music is simple but good tho, I find it to be one of the highlights of the game.

I'm sure you can finish this game and make it good, but it takes time and proper testing (multiple people trying to break it). You gotta be patient, the rewards are much better for game devs if they take the time to make their creation as good as they can be, else, your efforts are pretty much wasted. Hope it help.. : /

cheers!

it does help thanks :D

The shear originality, damn. Did you just reinvent the pinball genre, trowing cars (so nice) to kill flying dinausors and sending back meteorites in orbit, WITH A RAISED BRIDGE?? Holy cow dude, I don't want to be in your head.

All my money belongs to you, just take it already.

Cool stuff, just way too easy. Maybe make the combats slower, harder, with more strategy involved? Dunno.. nice one anyway, enjoyed it very much! Especially the music!! Very cool.. : 3

Gameplay is close to a very good game (already I enjoy it very much), but still need some tuning to really shine (cauz there is so much potential). I'm sure you can figure out what, there is so much comments with good ideas, I don't feel like adding anything, except maybe explain some strategies player can use:

-Drop coins on the ground to prevent further loss while attacked. If you drop 1 coin on the ground, small trolls will take it and go away. If you get touched I think you lose 2! And being touched multiple times by the same trolls does hurt quite a bit. As soon as a small troll has a coin, he's not going to hurt you anymore.

-Coins are your health, as long as you have some, you're safe when you get hit. But as soon as you are out of coin, the troll will take your crown instead and it's game over. Try to keep some gold for the night.

-You need to build barriers outside your kingdom for farmers to go farm, and archer to adventure further away (and get more gold that way). Sometimes a barrier upgrade will force farmers out and finish harvesting crops, so the barrier upgrade is free plus you get 2 gold.

-Archers grab and keep coins until you cross them, they'll give it back most of the times. Seems farmers too, but they seem much more greedy, little bastards.

Btw, it would be a good idea to reply to some folks here on NG.. we don't know shit about what you are thinking/planning/whatever. I think your game is liked very much, but you don't seem to give a shit about the community... : / (busy?). Some ppl here have taken their time to write huge reviews, with good ideas, at least reply to the most relevant to you!

cheers!

The game works for the first boxer, but at the end of the second round, the game gets stuck at "click here to continue". The mechanic is kind of weird too, space to enable/disable blocking is awkward. Boxing should be about timing and combinations, so I dunno. Nice art tho!

Gee, how can you take a top down zombie shooter, put in nice graphics (love the blood squirts) and music but still fuck it up so much? I'll tell you how: by not following the player with the view and making the player move too fast. The view does follow a bit, but not enough, so you never actually see much because of this. Total garbage game just because of two easy-to-fix details. Please, do fix it! Thanks!

Can't help but to choose "This makes poop look good" ; )
