Police! really has me fuddled. To store the length of the string AND divide by 2? I can't find a way to do it procedurally and I don't think there's enough room to do it declaratively for a 10-bit string. I figure anyone who doesn't understand the previous sentence wouldn't be able to help me anyway. :P
AHAHAHAHAHAA! "As you may know, BINARY is a language devised by machines to CONFUSE us." That is probably the funniest joke I've ever seen in a Flash game and DAMN am I a huge nerd! :D
1. Autosave. 2. Make it so I can't accidentally select a lame perk when I don't realize I'm about to level up. Really, fix those two things and you're golden, but those two things are really, REALLY annoying.
Really great TD, combines some of the best elements of Protector and Gemcraft while throwing out Protector's tedium and Gemcraft's frantic score-maxing. With only three base tower types and three spells this game is also a good example of the "less is more" concept. I just have three suggestions: hotkeys for spells, hotkeys for towers and upgrades, and hotkeys for spells again. Also, while I'm not exactly opposed to the idea of top comments, I wish it weren't the default tab that opens when you load a game. If you agree, vote this to be a top comment! :D
Johnny Nash's version of "Cupid" came out in 1969, which most historians agree is not the 70's. Stupid wiseman, doesn't even know his own anachronistic trivia.
I believe you have geeks confused with nerds. As I understand it geeks are productive, i.e. they have real jobs and/or they are on track to graduate with a good degree in a techy/engineering field. Nerds just sit around in their parents' basement doing meaningless activities and acting all superior like this guy is doing. It's kind of like the difference between rednecks and white trash.
Hmm, an overcrowded hospital full of terrified people receiving free but shoddy medical care and staffed by surly trolls because all the real doctors have moved their clinics to the Caribbean. So basically, this game is what America is going to look like after Obama's plan goes into effect.
I'm not as GRAAAHH KREDS as a lot of these two-year-olds because I respect that online game developers sometimes have things called "families" and "not living with their parents." But I think there should be limits to the money bleed, especially on a website where you're already getting some ad revenue on top of actual player money. Now let me get this straight: You have to pay real world money--not just once but on a subscription basis--just to be able to ACCESS the stores where you pay MORE real world money for items?! Is this the Sam's Club of MMO's?!?!
Dear Diary: Today Mr. Clean kept showing up asking me to kill things, a guy whose name means "cat" in Japanese tried to kill me with his flying outer space store, and a scary clown keeps screaming at me about demons. I think my psychiatrist messed something up with my medication.
I like this game a lot, but I always chafe at the "survival mode" concept. In your next release, or perhaps for a sequel, how about adding a beatable story mode, or scenarios with specific objectives and/or restrictions?
Yeah, I think for this to be an effective game the time bonus needs to mean more. No matter how early you solve the crime, it's almost always worth more money if you continue to click away until you run out of time. I like the concept, though. It's very unique. Playing reverse minesweeper is also not the most exciting thing in the world. The best strategy is just to click around squares with large numbers. It's pretty rare that you can actually use deduction to guarantee the location of a clue, and you would think deduction should be important for a detective game.
Kind of a nice artsy/storytelling piece. I like the creative graphics and environment. But as others have said, it could have been more game-like. Also, you're a terrible poet. Many of the rhymes were so much of a stretch they were almost non-existent, the language was awkward because of said attempted rhymes, and the meter changed with pretty much every line. It would have been better if you had just made it prose.
