Agreed. The game is sort of slow and starting over can sometimes feel a little frustrating when it takes a long time to move places. The concept is nice, but the execution is off. Nice job nonetheless.
Please note that "genius" is around 140. 155 is very high, but has nothing to do with this game. It does not take a genius to match up colors. Now, on a related note, the game is pretty good. Keep up the good work.
This is the problem with this game. If you die during a fight in a nations town once a previous one has been captured, you are stuck. When you reload the save file, you are taken to the screen with the guard that says we need to challenge the town. It is impossible to back out of the fight. If you are in a situation where it is impossible to win, you have to start over if you have not saved in a save file (which dont work anyway).
Though I have been waiting for number 2 for a long time, I must say that this game can not uphold its reputation in its current state. Like others mentioned, you can easily get 1 hit KOed at the beginning. I could not even capture a 1 star town with all my money spent on troops.
I have come so close so many times, but it seems that the starslide thing above the last planet is way too short. Before I have time to react and press up, I am already falling off of it.
