final boss is WAY too random, and dependent on luck ... while earlier levels are rather easy ... needs some rebalancing in terms of the difficulty of opponents ...
badges on a pay-to-play game is just sad ... using the badges to encourage more players to pay money ... i HAD this on a 3/5 rating, but now downgraded to 1/5 ...
the hard badge should be labelled as an ene ... very easy, since you get unlimited ammo, and par/points doesnt mean anything in terms of game progress ... as long as you dont sink your ship, it's all good ... BUT ... SIXTY (60) LEVELS ?!? takes forever ... plus, after the first 10 or so, the levels all start to feel the same, and the game gets real boring, real quick ...
you would think after waiting forever for the game to load up, the individual levels would already be preloaded ... but apparently not ... so what was getting loaded at the start then?
glitch: if you pause the game during the batte against thunder, the game will not allow you to unpause ... the first time it happened, put it down to bad luck ... the 2nd time, i was pissedoff ... tried it a 3rd time, and am convinced it's repeatable, and needs fixing.
overall, rather easy and simplistic game, took just under 2 hours to complete with all badges. A couple of notes:
- Needs a hotkey for speed up
- poison damage while sped up is bugged
- using a spike trap while sped up at the same time a flying creep spawns causes that creep to get stuck, and the level needs to be restarted.
- trap hotkeys should be better defined for ater traps, ie. which key for what trap
- levels are too short after the first few stages.
- the skill that makes coins worth more is pretty useful; all the rest are pretty useless
very easy on easy mode, time bonus every round, dont need hints ... as for hard mode, well ... spent most of the time just waiting fr the 'reveal' bar to refill ... O_O
i seem to remember seeing somewhere that games with 4.1 or higher in rating qualify for the addition of badges ... this game's now got an average rating of 4.11, so how long till we see some badges for it?
thanks to salladrippz for the tip ... forgot about resetting upgrades ... did that, and removed homing beacon and rabbit's foot, made burgoise achievement SO much easier ... out of curiosity, has anyone managed to get that achievement with a fully upgraded mother goose?
burgoise achievement is taking forever to get ... got all the others in about 15 minutes, but ths last one ... every time i get to around 13-14 snobbish swans in my flock, some ordinary peasant of a goose wanders over ... phooey!!
very very easy for a medium badge ... following samdc's walkthrough, didn't have to do anything after the first level, except for buying/selling/upgrading elevators and turrets ... the turrets and lasers killed all the critters by themselves on every level from the second one onwards ...
Dezire444: by my calculations, the loading screen advances by 1% every 12 bites ... so 1,200 bites to load ... either that's one REALLY hungry beaver, or it eats with very small nibbles ... O_O
