I achieved brilliant rating in all stages and I'm still 30 points away from completing the skill tree, now I'll have to replay the same stages until I earn 10 more levels, I think it's a flaw. After beating everything in the game, nothing happened, no "the end" or "congratulations" screen, another basic rule of game design (activation of the reward system of the player). At this point of my game, the only thing I have to worry about are the ninjas, if I position the towers correctly... no real challenge. Well, I can't figure out why this game is so highly rated.
The 100 deaths mark really MUST BE lowered... There are 25 levels, suppose you die on average once at each one of them (which I think is already an exaggerated number), there are still 75 death to go, after the game has ended... I spent like 10 minutes only killing myself in lvl 14. Make it 25, 30 at max... I had to lower my game rating because of this.
Great idea, but some bugs and the energy balls touch area is bigger than it seems. Also, for me it is really difficult to move with wasd and shoot portals with q and e. There should be an option to personalize controls, the ideal would be left click for blue, right for yellow, Idk if it's possible in flash games. Another option would be something like Space for one portal and left click for the other.
After you finish upgrading the castle, Infamy points are useless, but you keep getting them. Would be nice to have a way to spend these points, example: Paying Infamy during the game to give your troops a little speed boost, protection for a few seconds, and so on.
Liked the game, it's good in it's simplicity, but need a lot more work in order to become a "good" game. Examples: I opened the code lock without having the red number, it is unnecessary, 3 numbers and a few attempts should do it; The ending screen says "thefarm barn" without space between words; Consider changing the mouse to the little hand over clickable areas; Some items that you will never use again remain in your inventory while others vanish when used.
Little walkthrough for those who want all the in-game achievements:
- There's only ONE chance to find Privates Brian and Stan: South area Factory Capture and Southeast Area Recon missions, respectively. Don't miss them;
- Private Dexter is in the West area, Clean Up mission;
- Expand as soon as you can, you need to recognize all areas before day 50;
- Blow every barrel you find since the beginning (you need 200);
- Use weapon nº 2 every time you can, for headshots (you need 100 and they are HARD to get);
- Keep in mind that if you clean up a region with toer and factory fully upgraded, it will become closed for the rest of the game.
I found, at 92% completed, 21/24 achievements, that I missed one of the Privates. I am going to reset the game and start over. This is my decision.
Nice and innovative game (due to the "lock on target" featuring as the primary attack). I would change only one thing: When a mission is completed, the action is still going on the background, it would be better if the game "paused" and background fades off, or slow motion + fading. It makes me wonder things like "did the coins I got after the "Mission Complete" screen count? What happens if I die on the background? probably nothing, but it's kind of strange. Congratulations for the good game and specially for the improvements added, we don't see lots of dedicated developers after the game is released.
HINT FOR BADGE: on the stages "survive 5 and 10 minutes" - New enemies are spawned when you kill an enemy who is on the screen. So just DONT KILL them, stick yourself to the wall and start dancing around the stage, I know 10 minutes just walking around is boring but it's a 100% safe way to get through these levels :)
In the end you see your character dead on the snow, with his arms up, but if you look again... He is standing up, celebrating this AWESOME game is finally over.
I think the easyest way to get the hard badge (i did this way) is to not complete night 20!
EASY! Hit some headshots, die and press retry. Your headshot score will continue to run! It worked for me...
