PS It might be a new game thing, (I've been reloading the game a few times trying to see why) as heavy turret seems to be bugged it starts of at 99.1k and above dps at the start, after which it fixes itself and then the game hangs. So possibly with one of the patches that have been made some of the starting numbers have been *&(^& with, causing calculation errors for the program.
Dang played this game a long time ago when it first came out, and it was quite enjoyable wanting to get back into it now, but the game won't start. It runs for about 2 seconds and then just hangs... Hope this gets fixed I'll check back every now and then.
Mana shards have a terrible boost to income...
At 200k shards I have 11k% boost to income and at 500m shards that goes up to 19k% it's like what??????
2500* the mana shards for less than a 50% boost to income
The shard bonus curve is currently too steep. Next patch will make it more forgiving, as well as give a way to spend those higher amounts of shards on more meaningful things.
I get that keeps get to be the most expensive building by the end as more heroes is always a good thing but the achievements could possibly also work with that, as right now the most expensive building needs the most buildings to complete all achievements... (well except for gold mines)
I'd like to add to what Atombender said, and say that the gold would also have to be effected by mana shards.
Also a few bugs to report.
When to heroes hit something at the same time only one does any damage.
When the window is hidden from few creatures continuously spawn but no fighting occurs. I once came back to a screen with literally hundreds of ogres.
If you're going to have the racers affected by racers in the actual race, you should have them affected by racers in training too. Otherwise how will they learn to drive with others on the track?
For those who have problems with speed it is possible to controll the speed of the knight by moving the mouse closer or further away from him.
It is not necessary to run at full speed all the time.
I'd give this game a 5/5 if it weren't for the bugs/glitches. Those should definitely get fixed. It's just generally annoying if you've spent approx 100k on a car and it suddenly decides to be unusable, what's even more annoying is the fact that these corrupted cars can't be deleted so they're always sitting there taking up space.
for some reason I can't play this game on kongregate. the loading monkey disappears really quickly and only the background image is left, and then Nada... works fine on newgrounds though...
