I think that enemies fire at me. I can't tell.
Bombs also hurt me. WTF.
Game Over screen: the helecopter takes longer to die in the animatic than it does in the game.
As a suggestion, I think there should be an "accept/deny" when looking for sponsors. I spent 10 days coding a 100 "game time game" and got it sponsored for ~$1000. I then made a "2 game time" game and sponsored it. For ~$1100. WTF.
If I'm only getting paid $1000 for a game I spent that much work on I might as well just post it to my site and attact ass loads of people instead.
Bull shit animation makes "higher quality games" than coding does. What makes a game a game and not an interactive move is, you guessed it, code!
Graphics turn a good game into a better game (and an average game into a good game) because it looks pretty. But it turns bad games into horrible games because "it just looks pretty, there's no real content" (just like most PS3 and XBox 360 games).
Best game you'll ever play: Dwarf Fortress (google it), uses ASCII-like graphics. Simulates a fantasy world: history for 1050 years, the terrain, the weather, wars, religion, people, buildings, temperature, water flows, *everything* (and it's still only in alpha). It will *never* have fancy graphics because the sole creator said "no" (there are graphical addon packs and the game does use bitmaps to display the characters, so he will be allowing people to write their own graphic mods, he's just not doing it himself).
I R teh high score-er. And no hacking! Just didn't buy the two smallest propellers. I think it's beatable, because I didn't sell at least 1 seaweed. I forgot before I cleeked "submitzorz"

If the upgrades were slightly cheaper and the player started in an easier location (bloody sharks!) this game might be more enjoyable.
Losing is only fun when it's funny. Like in Dwarf Fortress where you can be beaten to death with your own leather pants.
So I started the game and got a blank screen with no picture and a very large "WHO."
Wrong answer is -10 and not -25, input box lags (I selected my answer and typed out "Hitler" before the game advanced "1 second" worth of time and replaced my text).
I officially label this The Worst Game Ever, Second Only to ET: The Game.
