Guys. Premium is $5 for one of the best flash franchises ever, and not to mention one with one of the most replayability and depth of strategy. It's not expensive, it's not essential, it is nice if you do pay for it, and this game is an easy 5/5 as all the Gemcraft games are for me. I definitely purchased premium, and if that helps these guys develop Gemcraft 2 (3?) then you can all thank me later ;)
I don't understand why people would vote this down because the developer didnt do exactly what they want them to (ie make Imperium III, which would be great mind you...). A good game's a good game, if you're not interested in the improvements then dont play it I guess...
I'm going to go ahead and say that I like this game. Ideas for sequel: switch positions in plane juggling multiple angles of attacks, maybe call out which side is being attacked ("bandits at 6 oclock" etc.), ability to call in full screen attacks like friendly AA flak or a wave of escort fighters that sweep the screen. More upgrades, guns, enemies, etc.
I really like this game, and it incorporates a few different TD styles into a somewhat innovative one. That being said I think it has a lot of room for streamlining and balance. Keep it up, the sequel could be epic, although its a pretty solid TD as it stands and is entirely playable.
Hey Frumpledorf, you should've been here yesterday when they had an earlier build up that lacked keyboard shortcuts and yet still had that in the description. Why dont you not talk about things you dont know about?
Wow, finally seem to have the update, and in addition to hotkeys, difficulty seems to be toned down. Much more enjoyable than say... a couple hours ago... good job!
Man I hate to harp but I absolutely dont understand the decision to have towers be destroyable... I cannot figure out what you expect us to do, if we just focus on a few towers and upgrade them they still get steamrolled... is it a waste of money to upgrade towers then and should we just load up on cheap expendable units? This really ruins an almost pefect game in my opinion...
Manual control of which way a tower is facing would be incredible, level 4 is ridiculous when you cant really even utilize half of it because the towers all want to face away from where the enemies are... Speed up also would be really nice. I really really want to like this game, but its just a few small tweaks away from epicness...
As always, a quality game from you guys. I'm really impressed with the variety of genres you delve into, it takes some you know what to not just find a formula that works (of which you guys have had many) and ride it till the cows come home. That being said, toss a minimap and indicate the other cars' positions and you've got a near perfect game for what you are looking to do here.
Oh, this platformer is kinda cool... oh hmm... he doesnt jump very high does he?.... hmmm, coins, ok, cool.... ok got a star.... man this is getting kinda lame.... .... HOLY F.
