@mpboss That is totally possible, explosions create shockwaves, and if those shockwaves are powerful enough they can cause serious harm to living things, and go through rock
Those complaining about the difficulty,you should see the released game. This is the first of 6 difficulties, with the fourth difficulty starting at this ones difficulty at 60 seconds.
The formula is
a set amount + 200*kills + 20*gold - 12*seconds
The set amount goes up 10k for each act, and is also higher on difficulty. Suicide difficulty act 2 is 100k set amount
To be fair balbanes, you can do things that should put you over 100 stress. Having the 100 cap can actually be used to your advantage to get more out of your stuff.
Plus, it is also penalty for if you die, because you go to 100 stress
Part way through the shark area it said max stars was 63. Also, there is a problem with win 5 games in a row. I won over 10 times in a row, didn't get it. Then lost, and then won twice more and did get it.
An option to provide smarter AI would be nice. EG set them to have a "Custom" command which you can set, which would be different per game(EG scouts just grab flag and never fight in cap flag. In point they just capture a point and move on. Tanks capture a point and stand still. etc)
For those trying to put strategy into what you dig, the mobs priority order is DOWN, then UP, then RIGHT then LEFT. Thus you can clear out LARGE areas to place mobs without changing the path
Iron is a little ridiculous, when on a glacial terra world I am terrain overheating at level 30, and I need iron(starts at 50) to advance cooling, it doesn't balance right(same problem with aerial and propellor)
It's a good start, the sliding wall is impressive, an dyou've got all the basics and recognition down with the icon changing based on positioning and direction, now just add actual icons for each of those.
Good demonstration, but would be good to add a way to win somehow. Perhaps have your health be smaller and move up and down, so your goal is to slow down the ones that would hit you?
@dingsese, you realize this is Kongregate and jmtb02? Like, backbone to Kongregate, they have some of the best games on the site. It was like this for a reason
The spawning in the middle of three enemies needs to be fixed. Especially since controls don't work for a second, so i'm half dead if not more before I gain control of my character
It should be a little clearer that with the hacking you can swap tiles that aren't adjacent, i was in the third chapter before I realized it(on accident) and was extremely frustrated beforehand
