I can't get anywere. The recharge time sucks, the accuracy sucks, my allies are slow as heck and there's too many enemies. It's impossible to get past day 5 for me, even with 3 wall upgrades and a repairman.
Godamnit kongregate, I pick my time to make ASCII-art to make it easier for the developper to understand what I mean but instead it gives me everything on a row, dang it >_>
great game, a little on the short side. Editor would be appreciated.
Also, for the author, you can cheat on microvania. You don't need the switches for one of the keys, you can jump on the corridor and make a precised jump to the key, like this
#|
~+--+
.-----+
# = key
~ = jump limit
You can do into the corridor and jump from there, not needing the switch to attain the key.
Just like how there's ways to get through most metroidvanias by doing things designers didn't expect, and end up skipping entire chunks of the game. Don't worry about the ASCII, I know what you mean. I managed to do it myself as well ;)
For the europe challenge: It'ds best to attack France first and to get your reinforcements to your teammate. 2 in russia, 1 in Scandinavia. Take refuge in Spain and portugal while you have about 2-3 armies of 50 troops drilling through Europe to take away country bonuses from the enemy. All hope looks lost for you, but your teammate is getting stronger and will eventually get Russia back :) From there on it's easy. Also, you can distract a huge number of enemy troops with 10 armies. It will attack those, that's how I saved Spain.
I think I know why fish resets when you leave the game, when you refresh the market prices set on random, so you could keep on refreshing untill you get good prices...
