3/5 because of memory leaks. my desktop runs out of virtual memory (a whole 5 GB of it) by the time im through a third of the game. it feels like every 100 dialogues a ram chip fills up...
colossus has high health, low speed, slow attacks and weakness to magic. use hobbits and goblins to force it to keep attacking, and magic units to do heavy damage.
This may not be the most detailed racing game in the world, but it is - by and large - the most enjoyable car game. Driving, both during a race and in free mode, is a real pleasure, while the nitro mechanics are really nifty. 5/5!
simple and short game, not much depth. could be improved with limitations other than time (ex - limited fuel for taxiing, timed landing of planes instead of manually pressing Space). good project for learning game coding i guess.
aside from playing the game to complete it, its also a bit fun to take control of half or more cells in a level and then watch the AI struggle to take them back.
the distance badge is easily got if you can get a lot of horizontal speed soon. stay within 300 height, accelerate horizontally and touch down at 300+ distance. can get 800+ distance without breaking a sweat this way.
Must-have soldiers for any mission: Spy (great for rescuing VIPs and civilians), Heli-R (better artillery than the artillery tank), Heli-T (as good as Heli-G but can airlift stranded units). last 2 units should be chosen for their special abilities, ex- tesla can shoot through rock, molotov burns lots of units. i keep a commando as a sniper in tight areas where Heli-T cant reach.
Now we know why aliens keep visiting Earth. 1) They got lost in space for 15000 years and need info from our gods and godships 2) They want to make us technologically advanced as a way to kill time worth 15000 years.
to get 3 stars - win all levels while focusing skill points in supply and recycler, get 3 stars on level 8 (>50000 points) and 9 (>70000 points). put points into base HP and score >30000 on first 3 levels until you max out base HP (you get points for high HP at end of battle). play all levels until you get 3 stars. enjoy
dragons are good meatshields against melee units (8k health for 3500 mana). devils are great counter to siege unit spam and archers (75% resistance to ranged damage) and angels are allrounders but best against small units and magic units. use dragons early in a match to push forward, devils to fight a counter-attack wave of archers, and angels when your devil is almost dead. human titan has the best damage (2700 in 5 seconds) and is great vs melee units. elf titan has 50% resist to ranged, so use it for damaging castle while surviving a counterwave. orc titan is not very useful, so use it as a meatshield for a devil or angel.
actually, any attacks you do under inverse aura reduces your damage by half. the real secret is much grander than that. :D
