Just a question: Was this horror version of pacman inspired by the comic at SMBC? You can read it here: http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=2736
@ davr: Don't be silly! Geometry wars first appeared in 2003... Have you taken time to check this game date of publishing??? Maybe it's inspired by robotron, a very old game, but saying "it's a clone" is a little too exagerated :)
For some reason I was able to go past the 5th level... (the demo says it's a 5 levels demo).
To all who find this game too hard, I suggest pumping up laser power only. If you are able to get past the third and fourth level (the hardest ones on my opinion) you will be able to see laser levvel 8... big glowing ball of mass destruction :)
Seventh in the all time highscores!!!
I enjoyed this new version, I find it less eye-soring then the green one. Just one thing: the green homing triangle got off screen and disappeared at some point... is it intentional?
Hi all!
Sorry for being silent but I've had some work to do (plus, I'm working on next update!).
I just wanted to say everybody that I'm still working for you :)
@blah3: Help => Second Page => Under Objects, fourth row: "You can also use keys 1-5 to use them"
As for the aiming: the arrow points where you character is turned, NOT where you aim (which is a little to the right).
However I'm planning to add something for that, like an alternate cursor... trying not to screw with other characters aiming!
*To all the people out there complaining about the difficulty:*
I've put up a page dedicated to the game, where you can find *FOUR VIDEOS* that show a suggestion on how to pass the first levels... even without using ANY drop! Come check them if you dare!

IT is possible, since it has no ending, and if you get the right drops, you can be very powerful... more than the toughest enemy. And the combo of 1400 kills is worth something like 8 millions points :)
Hi!
Nice game, my italian friend! :)
Usually I don't like avoider games, those with a path to follow. this one is a little better than the rest. IMHO this game lacks one thing: PAUSE!!!
It's no good when you havve to answer the phone or the bell, and you are at tenth level... O_o
I've got a good news and a bad one:
The good: everything is now ok (crossing fingers)
The bad: you can't use old saves :(
In fact the error was in the name of a variable, and to maintain old saves I tried to patch it with a function to intercept it... but apparently it failed. So now the issue is fully addressed, but old saves are not compatible. I'm *truly* Sorry
*SOLVED!*
The bug with save should now be gone...
Let me know, and remember that there is a bug reporting feature which should be more user friendly :)
Ah, by the way... I'm working on 1.7 already!
*Share the fun!*
Glad you like the new version :) and as always: thanks for the suggestions!
@lord_david: you can't collect therits? with which character? Have you checked you have the latest version of flash? Anyone else with the same problem?
Let me know!
lol... i'm about to upload new version (come check in an hour or so).
Just found the time to answer the _kind and polite_ person named 16belowzero... There is a button to mute volume in EVERY menu, in the pause screen you can mute or adjust volume, and as explained in instructions, you can press M key in every moment to toggle music on/off
Enough said?
*Unfortunately*, I played it too many times testing it, and I am no longer capable of discerning what is hard and what is easy... being capable of ending it with all four characters.
*So please*, instead of being harsh, try to suggest something. I promise I will keep it in mind on the next update.
*By the way* the next update will be very soon, with slightly better controls (no longer stuck in enemies) and the option to see what you already bought in the shop (I thought that the impossibility to buy the same thing twice would suffice... sorry), as some of you suggested.
(Also, Giga gave me a good idea: I think I will post somehwere 4 videos showing the best strategies to pass the first levels. Maybe I could also make a walkthrough...)
@Everyone: Thank you for the comments, be they positive or negative...
I'll keep your suggestion in mind when I'll update it... I'm planning to work on it for another while, so come in with suggestions! No time to reply to everyone, but I promise I read you all :)
*Just one thing:* if you find something you don't like or wrong, or simply ugly, try to suggest a solution. I'd really appreciate it!
Bye!
Thanks again to everyone who played and voted it!
@Kiralyn: Very strange... I double checked it and it works... Have you tried updating your flash plug in version? PM me if you want, I'd like to solve this!
Anyone else got the same error?
ps: the strange thing is the "shield repair" and can be picked up only by cleric and warrior :)
