This is a great concept. But it could need some buttons (sell, upgrade) as well as more content: types of creeps, etc. - and the fact that most of the map is unused is not a good solution. I like the polished and clean look though. Has a lot of potential!
Horribly confusing: far too colourful, too much enemies, etc. .. I guess you've the potential to make a great game (which is more calm): Less weapons, more time to get familiar with it. I admit that this must have been a load of work for you but currently it's no fun. Sorry.
@CeruleanDragon: You can hold SHIFT to shoot multiple meteors. That works fine for nearly all ninjas and ninja bosses. Don't forget to max the "more meteor damage" and "reduced meteor mana cost" upgrades.
Level 14 is a hard nut to crack if you're going for Brilliant. Some 5x400 damage fireballs won't kill boss. I guess you've to deal the remaining 500 hp all at once (because of the smoke bomb). How to do this? Getting dens and temples (with Ignite?) up and ready?
The game is great, rated it 5 but there's one annoying thing:
The Ninja Boss. If your defense is up, vaporizing any other enemy in an instant, and the Brilliant star is just one wave to go forget about it if the Ninja Boss is on the way. :(
Really like the concept, idea, gameplay BUT there's a huge annoyance: how to deal with the hundred of weapons? You could have added some tabs or colours.
Really cool at the pop up of the first screen.
Not that good any more at the second.
Annoying at the third pop up. Really annoying.
Stopped playing because of this ...
This is one of my top 5 games on here, it's just awesome! The old school look and gameplay are great, love the leveling system as well. Every item is a very special one, the combat system is nice, as well as the controls. You haven't could done better.
