we can handle one wave at a time just fine. 2 waves at a time, no problem. 5 waves at a time, easy as pie. 10 waves at a time, ramping up the difficulty. 11 waves at a time, dead.
(Not so) Quick tip to get past level 20:
First up, you'll need several items. There should be a wizard's hat you found in level 5 (If not, it's in a chest in the second room of the level), 6 rat's tails (obtained by killing a rat in any level), a camera (boss battle level 10) and a bucket of sewer water (bucket = table in level 7, to get sewer water use the cup in the sewer on level 15). First, open the door to the boss battle slightly, and place the bucket of sewer water on the door. knock on the door and wait for the bucket to fall on Brute's head. Quickly place the wizard's hat on him, and throw the rat's tails. He should look quite embarrassing (or so the mouse-over box says). Take a picture with the camera, run past him and upload the picture to his facebook by using his computer. By now, he will have fainted from shock and embarrassment, so steal the golden key from his pocket and use it on the door. BAM! You've passed the game.
Oh god, why am I crying?
Such a great ending. The music only added to the mood. The gameplay was great, albeit frustrating at times, and the backstory was good. I give it 5/5
I didn't realise that it was safe to attack the wolves in the level where you have to sneak (early on), so I spent half of the time trying to find a way past them without getting caught. It was actually pretty easy once I got the hang of it.
Wow. That is all I can say.
Firstly, a great gaming system. The one difference between this and other 2D shooters being the emphasis on the storyline.
And oh, what a storyline, if I could, I would play and replay this game to get all of the endings many times over. I ended up using the gaming as a tool to progress in the story, rather than appreciating the combat mechanics...
The music was spellbinding and impacting almost all the way through, and I was almost reduced to tears at some points from the effect of the music...
I have only played this once, and I received the "no wish" ending, and the others sound very promising.
I loved the interaction with the characters, and maybe in the sequel (if it gets made (fingers crossed)) there could be a dialogue action to add more of an interactive sense to the game.
This was, in all, a masterpiece. A definite 5/5 for me. :D
