I'm almost there and at character level 40 now.
The 'no mistakes' star falls in the category 'artificial difficulty', which is a big no-no in gaming. It's artificial difficulty because it's not a difficulty in the puzzle per se, but it adds difficulty in operating the game: double checking if you dragged a number to the right spot and not releasing too soon by accident.
For people with crappy mouses or trackpads, it's unnecessarily extra hard.
For people with muscle deceases, it's unnecessarily extra hard.
This can be circumvented with a "click to pick up and click to put down" option.
However, then we're still not allowed to try something on the board, which means we have to try it in our head or on paper (or on screenshots). In the end we're still trying stuff out to see if a choice would work, just not in the game. 2/5 because I like the concept.
You say we do not need to guess, but this is what I call guessing: "Okay, one of these two is a mine. Let's say it's this one, then this is not a mine, this one isn't, this is, and this one too, but that's a conflict, so from the first two, the other one is a mine." What I call puzzling is this: "Okay, one of these two is a mine. I don't know which one, but the adjacent 2 needs one mine more, which can only be in the third square, so that's a mine." I find myself guessing quite early in the game already.
Nice story. Started a bit awkward with the offer of "at least a hug" in return of some answers, though. I sincerely hope people are not dating with strangers like this.
Dear Shiny MetalMod, I have contacted your support team. Jenny told me to make a new Kongregate account with a name with 6 characters or more. Which is of course not a solution but a recipe for more problems on my side (finding friends for a guild, being found by friends, forgetting to switch accounts for other games, missing Kongregate badges of the day, etc.). While I am typing this, I am informed that this linkage is not available (yet) in this game and we need to manually search for our player ID to share with friends. So there is no reason (yet) to use our Kongregate account names in the first place...
First play: Okay, let's see. *Introduction*, *2nd fight* , *upgrade cards*, *fight again*, *Game crash*.
Reload, second play: YOUR NAME MUST BE 6 TO 25 CHARACTERS LONG. What the ...? I never choose a name, YOU are probably using my Kongregate namen. Whatever, it still loads... *Introduction* No... it didn't save? *Finish introduction* Ah, it DID save, as my next quest is to beat Bender. *Waiting for me to collect my introduction achievement which I can't collect as I already got it the first time* *DEADLOCK*. WHY do these things always happen to me? 1/5
This might be a known bug that we are working to fix. Can you contact our support team so we can review and fix your account? https://animationthrowdown.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
lvl1: *Yawn* lvl2: *boring* lvl3: wtf? I feel ashamed that I looked at the walk-through after I couldn't figure out the concept of the game within two minutes... Also, I found a 'feature': the end animation has sounds, even though I turned them off. Still, 5/5!
*Easy 100% efficient factory with 1:1 ratios* "Lets buy some upgrades!" *Horrible mixture of 4:3 and 3:2 ratios, demanding conveyor spaghetti* *Conveyors can't handle output*
I wish the components could be individually set to any of the upgraded levels. :(
Death likes cats.. Pratchett? Anyway, I hate it that the only reason to leave my hands from the keyboard, are to click the next button and to click the extra kill gauge, which both could be linked with e.g. spacebar.
No, stop placing tiny houses at the edge of the map! Anyway, finished the game. Don't know what the totum bonus is and why it is always 0. I expect it has something to do with me only using terraform and tidal wave, though... 5/5. And now I want to repeat the earlier levels with and armageddon them to the ground.
