There needs to be a way to use AP once you have upgraded all of the skills. Invest it into a passive skill that just lvls (+1 all stats, no max value, price continues to increase) or some way to spend them to make upgrades more successful, gamble them in the shop, something.
Rebirthing should add some portion of perm stats as well. Could be a really small amount like +5 to main stat. So if you wanted to start out as a giant a bunch of times in a row, the next time you start out as a dwarf you still have a small bonus to your STR because of previous rebirths.
It would be nice if the game saved options. What loot you want to keep, what area you logged out from, what skills you have activated to use, all of it should be saved.
It would be nice to have a confirmation that you acquired and auto-sold an item. A simple 1 line like "You acquired a normal axe and sold it for 35 gold".
A few ideas to choose from for a building feature:
1) Have the ability to destroy buildings
2) Have the ability to choose what buildings are built
3) Have all buildings take up the same amount of space and allow for buildings to upgrade like storage bins.
Something that would be nice is a second heat indicator hand for environmental heat, that wouldn't go up when you drill. And instead of an all-inclusive warning for "drill overheating" have a second warning instead for when environmental heat is to much. It's kind of odd walking around and having it say the drill is overheating when your not drilling.
There is to little information and to little control for the user. And way to many bugs. I've loved the previous Protectors, but this one is falling short of expectations. =\
There's a big exploitable bug. Gold doesn't save when you go to the starting menu. So purchase a bunch of items, go to menu, reload the game, and you have both all those items and the gold you just used. Rinse and repeat, sell the items, then play a map to "save" your gold and you just made a ton of money.
This would be a nice stand alone game, for the amount of time it takes to play. Or an MMO. But for kongregate it takes to long to play though a single wave.
Still, great game. Hope to see it maintained with some updates. =)
It would be nice to have some control, let us choose what stats/skills to lvl up, what items to equip and so on.
Only been "playing" for a few minutes, and the writing is hilarious, but it would be nice to have something to do.
