HOW, in 100 days, does Madagascar manage to keep a 20million population from depleting despite most of it's resources (like medicine), coming from other countries... I'm looking too far into this...
If you're chasing the HARD achievement, you should finish around about the time you've bought all the upgrades (if not slightly before).
APPROX. TIME TO COMPLETE ACHIEVEMENTS:
Crash Course - 5mins.
Shark: Weak - 15mins.
Calamari Calamity - 40mins
For those looking to nail the achievement (Unfairly):
The timer pauses when you leave the page, so enter google maps as soon as you read the location, then memorise the pinpoint (Using lakes and recognisable shapes in the sides of the countries as arrows to assist in accuracy) it will be very hard for you to fail a level.
Plus you actually do retain some geographical knowledge of the locations as many of them are repeated throughout the game.
Pretty good game, figured it out without any walkthroughs, nice use of logic, though the flying maggots at the swamp were tough, if i didn't accidentally click on them I probably would have needed a walkthrough.
But hey, that's half of these games anyway.
One note for the developer: Don't be so downtrodden about possibly not "Making It" in the gaming industry, just be glad to make games and enjoy it while you make it, the more enjoyment you put into the creation process, the more enjoyment people will likely get out of your games.
Keep up the good stuff though.
