ARG!!!! I completed all but two of the sectors on skirmish, and today I come here and it won't let me continue. It's like it totally dumped my saved data. WTF!?
Great concept and fun music. Don't hesitate to add more features though - maybe you can temporarily kill the attacking balls by bouncing them into a "goal" for example :)
The thing about Naughts and Crosses is with your standard 3 row board, if both players know what they're doing, it's literally impossible to have anything but a tie.
Now, if you make it, say, a 6 x 6 grid, and require 4 in a row, on the other hand...
I like it. A little variety would be nice - maybe zombie dogs? :)
Seriously, some different types of ammo would be nice (piercing, flaming, etc).
All in all though, fun game. I hope there's a sequel.
I think there's a bug with the extras. No matter how many you get, no new ones appear. Instead you just "scroll" through the same thing repeatedly, that weird blue-green rear end color.
Anyway, other than that it's a great old fashioned shoot-em-up that can hang with the best of 'em :)
The lack of a pause thing just bugs me because it's EVERYwhere on Kongregate.
Please, game authors, for the love of God, put a pause button in!!! Especially for games like this one. Seriously, it's 2009 and we have games without a pause function? Whut?
What percentage of enemies do you need to kill to advance to the next level? I'm killing about 65 percent of the enemies on level 7, but I still can't get to level 8.
The final boss isn't showing up... I get to the end of (what I assume is) the last level, and then I just fly along forever, with no enemies appearing!
One nitpick with the game: Does anyone else notice that "Slow Time" doesn't really seem to slow time very damned much? If I'm going to pay that much for something called "Slow Time" that takes awhile to reload, is it too much to ask for it to really slow time? A lot? :P
Tassalfoot: Hmm, I tried that, but I kept dying. The shortshield is pretty powerful up-close, but I beat it by sticking as far away as I could, on the outside corners of the arena to dodge all the stuff flying out of Bacteriazilla, and just hit it over and over with energy homers, laser lock, and Duck of Death.
WTF? I beat the game and I don't have a single achievement, according to this! And yes, I'm logged in; and yes, Abblock is disabled on Kongregate. What gives?
Bah, the Duck of Death is way overpriced. It's powerful enough, but takes way too long to recharge. I switched back to energy missiles and did a lot more damage with them.
My advice to noobs: Save up and buy the energy missiles!! They will save your butt over and over again. Also, get the shortshield when you can afford it. The last two weapons are a bit overpriced.
