I like the game. More depth in the sequel, please. Unlike some people I like to make strategic decisions and manage things. Not micromanage, just manage.

I like that 2 or more of the mods stack, but maybe tone that down in the sequel. Guns should have levels and upgrading the level on guns should increase range. I don’t like say choosin…

I’m glad you responded to my comment about the ninjas. I really liked the game, and just finished it. I think it just had some balancing issues around the free hits the ninjas get and the uberness of the boomerang gun. :D
Great game.

thanks for replying to my comment and the consistent tuning of the game; its hard to find a niche with so many games out there especially with the number of defense games, so its great when one comes along with unique mechanics (the loot/upgrade system being the major piece, with the guns being a smaller secondary part) Keep making tweaks and new g…

Thanks 4 making this game. I didn’t know I have played THAT much games, it’s nice to take a break from the games and look at all the games I have played. Tip: U should try Plazma Burst 2. It doesn’t exist on Kongregate.

General Vimes… Any relation to Samuel Vimes of the Discworld series?

Interesting. You’re correct in that the tutorial names them as power plants. The help section however lists the building as a “genetic lab” though.

Some possible arrangements for EE in the sequel, and maybe even PR2:

How many holiday and limited time only smileys are there in game stopping at Halloween 2011? (including contest ones) Easy! 10!

How many blocks are composed in the Glass package? Another easy one! 8!

How many decorations are in the ninja pack? Simple. 9.

I was Shufti. Have you read Monstrous then? I think it’s one of the lesser known ones because it’s a stand alone rather than part of a series

“Now I want to find some free time to play a party in Risk at home.” There are some good pc versions, namely the original, just titled “Risk”. Might be hard to find at this point, though.

About Cards Wars – You know, at the end of my turn I tend to play around with the two defense powerups to optimize the outcome. Oddly enough doing nothing has often a better result. On the first try I look at the losses and think “Well shielding should decrease that” but in the end, the enemy acts differently (more aggressively i…
