Suggestion to the developers: I think most people complain that the game is rigged or unbalanced because they play on easy mode, with the reckless AI. Cautious AI is actually easier to beat, I think, since statistically speaking he is less likely to take a risk and bank 2000+ points. It might not be a bad idea to switch the difficulty levels (Cautious = Easy and Reckless = Medium)
To Jingks (about 13 pages ago, not that you'll ever see this..) Yes, I did keep track of my games. Wasn't exactly 50, though close to (47 to be exact) Its not as much work as you may think. Throughout the day, on my work breaks I'd play. I calculated the probability of each scoring possibility, and simply wrote check marks. It took no more than 5 minutes of effort with the help of my TI83 calc. The sad part is, I really did play 47 games throughout the day....
Anybody who claims that this game is complete crap, or rigged, or etc.. get over yourselves. I just played my 50th game, keeping track of all the results. The game follows the statistical average of each probable outcome. You people disgust me. Truly you do. There used to be a day that games were way harder to beat, but we didn't bitch and moan like you lazy bastards. Quit playing games if you can't handle it. Oh, by the way, I dig the game. 4/5
386,140,958.. I could have done much better, I got hit too much in the last two levels so my multiplier was below 6 most of the time. Still pretty good for having just woken up and being distracted with coffee :)
Very fun. Surprisingly relaxing for a shooter. I guess cause I only need one hand, I can smoke cigs and drink my coffee with ease. Oh yeah, love the SALTFAVLT (repeat Korik, change to "Fires for A Very Long Time")
Why does everyone hate Mel? Have you actually played him? Its a little odd that you play as Braveheart and your kilt lifts up when you jump.. but you can access the hidden lab with him. Go to zone four and find the hidden door. Can't do it with the regular character cause he jumps just a little lower.
I thought everyone was just being a bunch of whiney losers.. but that seriously was the worst ending of all the shift games. I dig the adventure, but w.t.f. mate. -5/5
63,503 points and a height of 208. I suicided after a while, it my wrist started to hurt. Only suggestion would be.. after you get the gun, add another upgrade somewhere that autofires when I hold down the mouse button :) 4/5 Great game.
Total Score: 125772 ; Total Errors: 2. Great game, but a little too short. I'd love to see more, and I'm holding 1/5 of your rating hostage until you meet my demands. 4/5
Killed myself just to see what my score was. Only just above 70k though :( Add the basic comforts most people speak of- a pause, mute, ability to read your score while still playing, and this will improve from 3/5
Having played BT2 first, I'm having a bit of a hard time getting into BT1. Two major improvements make BT2 awesome. Bubbles come to you when you kill the last enemy, and you can hold down the mouse to maintain constant fire. Still though, awesome cause its so small yet so big.
