If you have are 5000 you can make money on the coin flip - just make sure you have almost exactly 1000 when you play, then the most you can lose is 1000, and the most you can win is 2200. If the odds are even, you come out ahead in the end. Just make sure you deposit your winnings in the bank before playing again.
I was a little pissed about the maintenance issue again, but the picture and explanation actually made me feel better. There are probably some dudes, way more pissed than the players working their assess off to fix it, don't worry about it guys.
Brilliant, beautiful game, it's obvious how much work you put in to this, and it paid off. This is one of the best flash games I've ever played, and just a great game all around. It incorporated parts of all my favorite RPGs of old, FF1, FF7, Earthbound, ChronoTrigger. Graphics are great, music is wonderful, game design is impeccable, I keep being amazed and how much is packed into this. Anyone who is hating on this game is idiotic, yes, obviously it draws from other RPGs, that's what makes it great, it's original story, original characters, on and on. If all you did was made a straight copy of final fantasy on to flash, it would still be an awesome achievement. I hope you have plans to make chapter 4, this is the only game on Kongregate that I've considered donating money for; your hard work deserves to be rewarded. Thanks again for the effort, bottom line, I had a really fun time playing this game - that's all that matters to me.
Since there's no penalty for missing, and it takes no time to reload, there's no reason not to just zoom in and shoot randomly around the head until you hit.
