@bigmac5b: I don't know why losing your ship would be "for the win". Also, there is no Easy Badge. Did you mean you got the medium badge in 2013 and the hard Badge today? I got the medium Badge on 8-23-2013, so this game might have been a BotD that day. I got the hard Badge the following day on 8-24-2018.
Today's repeat of Thursday, Oct. 14, 2010 is pretty easy. Turn off the ability to power totems, move Odin City to directly north of the middle emitter, build collectors west and east to connect to the other 2 totems, choose the 10% extra energy upgrade, and then turn on the ability to power Totems once you are connected to all 3. I was able to activate the totems at 1:15 and Odin City escaped 3 seconds later at 1:18.
Collect all 132 stars
You acquired this badge on Sep. 17, 2010. @blastvortex: Ha! Beat you by 10 months, and I still remember this game (not very well, but I'm not gonna remember much very well after almost 8 years.)
@Menessy27: I think the click-and-drag is to make it more realistic how you have to pick up a ball and drop it in a can of paint. But yes, just clicking would make it easier.
GreyHoundGames.com is up for sale so the in-game Help link points to a dead webpage. HOWEVER, Wayback Machine had the page saved. Here's a link to the archived Help webpage: https://web.archive.org/web/20120204053905/http://greyhoundgames.com:80/ddefender/help.html. If this is helpful then vote up so other people can see it.
As of now, I have to give the game 1/5 Stars for being unplayable. When I click on start I get the error message "Context3D not available! Possible reasons: wrong wmode or missing device support." Because of this I can't even start playing the game. Does anyone know how to fix this error? If so, send me a private message please.
Pretty good game. I did have ONE occurrence of the game freezing for about 10 seconds, but that was it. The main problem I have with the game is that it doesn't have a stage select screen. You have to reset the game and start from the beginning if you want to replay a stage.
