While humanity was preparing defences for the imminent zombie apocalypse, they were suddenly wiped out by giant goo monsters. Now a lone bald samurai will kill for glory, suicide, and an impossible badge. 5/5
You can use either the strategy of keeping the drones really slow, or make them really fast and run between the drones to collect the squares, but you can't use both strategies at the same time. Ironic, right?
Long story short: We came here for the badges, the game came here for the money. What we're actually running from in the game is a metaphor for the real-life money we'd have to spend on resurrecting ourselves if we die.
From this game, I have learnt that games are like women: advertising yourself will lower your reputation. Take that you money-sucking black hole of a game.
Hi guys! I'm the second guy to get the hard badge. Here's a tip for the 30-pointer: Unlike in endless mode, where you must rely purely on instinct, in the levels you are able to memorize when you must click beforehand. When I played, I imagined that my mouse was a snare drum. When I clicked, I would "hit" the drum. As I played through the levels, I simply memorized the beat that got me through most of the level last time, and then tweak the beat so it would get me even further. My beats were accurate right down to the semiquaver level, allowing for diversity and precision. And as long as I didn't screw up the beat, I wouldn't die; this saved valuable time. I used this method to get Level 4 in 308 deaths the first playthrough. I am sure it would have been a lot higher otherwise. + this comment to keep it alive so others can see!
For those aiming for the hard badge, use the Phoenix stratagem: Begin as Necromancer. Place Phoenix and Turtles on the battlefield when you can. Use Giant Spider to fill the field and Elven healers to heal when you need to. When there are 8+ monsters on the battlefield and your Fire is >10, use Drain Souls. Your phoenixes will live to directly attack the opponent on the next turn. Upgrade your Phoenix and Turtle, then you can use meditation for free when you have a Turtle in play. Also your phoenixes will hurt the enemy directly every time they die. Finally, try to have a Tornado ready in case the enemy summons a really powerful monster and you've used your Drain Souls. + so others can see.
You know, I like this game. But the small circles? Really? Just getting past those might as well be harder than winning the jackpot on a slot machine. -_-
For those aiming for the hard badge: Go into minute mode and spam the down button. When you get a muffin or something with a small base, stop spamming and concentrate on placing the next piece on the cake. If you get a muffin and you're not spamming, drop the muffin to get something with a wider base. This way, you'll get coins really fast and 10-15 tries later will have enough to buy the "heart" upgrade. + so others can see
This game has real potential. Suggestions: 1) Allow players to see stats of soldiers with 0 AP left. Some players like numerical stats, it helps with planning. 2) Add an aura when soldier runs out of ammo. Even if you implement 1, do 2 anyways. Players will want this to plan ahead, which means a lot in strategy games. They'll love you for it. 3) Allow point-blank shots. Some players would rather use bullets if it means a higher score. Apart from that, good job! Looking forward to updates.
