Thank you, kongregate, and all the people who commented with helpful advice. With your help, I was able to make this: http://www.kongregate.com/games/enshoku/just-another-shootorial-game
It's still by no means a good game, but at least its pretty consistent in the way it functions.
This game missed the mark of being good by just a hair, though the hair is large enough to tug the game into the "not fun at all" category. Simply put, its the balls. They take over the entire game and is becomes purely luck based, physics be damned, the best strategy in reality is knock over the tower, hop the trophy lands on a single block, and destroy all the others and pray the balls dont knock the trophy off.
Its a pretty bad game, it frequently crashes on the later levels due to the amount of balls, death balls continue to exist sometimes when the alpha channel is completely transparent, and life balls will crash a game just about every time due to the fact that bob didn't bother putting an instance cap on them. this could have been a mediocre game with a little effort, but as it stands it's pretty awful.

Burning Hill, Ice Land, and Poison Forest mages are so much more powerful then any of the others. Once a burning Hill mage reaches 80 SP you've lost, an ice mage can automatically cancel any attack, cancel defenses, and heal, and poison mages can poison you and then just keep playing defense until you die.
I beat the game without saving once, its quite fun.the ninja girl A good idea is to start out as the girl ninja, get your dex to 80, go to echigo and buy the shuriken there.its the best ranged weapon in the game and one of the fastest as well. Considering your dex is 80 you wont be taking a lot of hits either so it works as a long and close ranged weapon. having a melee 1st line and a 2nd line of archers is also a good battle formation.
