suggestions for improvement: 1) mute button 2) double tap esc for even higher jumps 3) narrowing points of shaft 4) timed or single use invincibility bubble powerup 5) press this button (+) right over here --->>
oh god, why does this have to be part of the best of 2009 pack...i don't have hours and hours to get 500 points for the last quest, a mere 15 points :(
I love it! Played through the whole thing, captivating graphics, beastly protagonist, great plot twist, multiple endings, 5/5.
Here's a suggestion for controls improvement that may be a bit more user friendly: UP=JUMP, DOWN=ACTIVATE/DOORS, X=ARC SPIKE, C=HORIZONTAL SPIKE, allow spike in midair!
This is fantastic. At first I was skeptical because I had played the original and doubted a sequel by someone else could have done it justice. Only flaw I note is that the original demanded you use defensive bolts more. With this, you can go through the entire game without putting a single point in defense because the AI isn't smart enough to counter appropriately. Love the new skills though, love the many quest choices and badges.
is this game actually playable? i gave up after that incredibly terrible tutorial. whoever created it has the worst professional command of the english language i've ever seen.
I can't believe I never knew about this game but it is incredible. The element of discovery, beautiful scenery, fun gameplay, hidden treasure, relaxing music. 5/5 and favorited!
Attacking Commander: Okay ninjas, I'm only giving you each one smoke bomb which render the defender's towers completely useless, thereby making you completely invulnerable for 5 seconds. And I'll be sending 30 of you after 6 gems.
IF YOU HIT A BUG: hit circular arrows in upper right to restart level instead of refreshing from the beginning.
If you finish a level and click an arrow appears to bring you to the next screen, the game will crash with total black screen, don't go there!
(+) so people know and for developer to fix
STRATEGY for 3-5 days! Put 2 in launcher, 2 in band. Collect as much as possible day one, pray for a yellow booster or something. Next goal is to buy an e-booster. Launch until you reach zero velocity then deploy boost. Hold down the left or right arrow to get yourself moving quickly in one direction. Next, buy maximum left or right rocket and upgrade band and launcher. If you move fast enough in one direction you never need a parachute and the boosts keep you bouncing at about the same elevation. You'll rack up enough cash to purchase everything and launch into space. All you really need are e-boosters, band and launcher.
30 point badge: 1) Levels 1-13: lasers, no problem 2) Level 14: use fully upgraded LASER, at the last 3 enemies don't focus on taking one down before moving to the next. Spread your fire as soon as each enemy appears and try to let your allies finish them off. Rapidly circle up to the top of the screen when they come down low, try to dodge their fire. It may take a few tries. 3) Last boss: Use fully upgraded PULSE. He has four attacks. Hardest by far is the infinite rain. Stay to the bottom right area in a safe zone, if the beams close in too tight quickly move to a larger area not too far away so you don't take too much damage - repeat until attack is over. Rockets are not too hard, figure out a pattern and stick to it - I like to circle around, with some tricky timing you can quickly cross over one wave near the top of the screen before the next wave comes down. Others like to move from side to side along the bottom. Follow other comments if you're having trouble with other attacks.
control scheme would be a million times better if you didn't have to press space every three seconds...You can do a MOUSE ONLY solution as follows: just make it so when you click anywhere NOT on the structure you rotate, ON the structure you manipulate.
Don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but because the mage is the only char with ranged attack, she kills more and gains more xp, thereby leveling disproportionately. Let the heroes gain xp from their guard kills. This is why my horseman is lvl 31, warrior 37 and mage 46! Not to mention that with my devastating superior scepter she does 58.1 damage/second + 68% chance to crit...why does the only ranged attacker have the best attack?
