This game is very luck dependent in the early game, 1838 needed 570 tea chests to advance to the next year. You can't reasonably buy that much tea in the late game because if you buy about 150 chests of tea prices of tea skyrocket. Therefore, you must stock up in the early game which is difficult with only one ship. I've noticed that many of the best deal requires lots of opium, for example 40 chests of opium at 99 each is sweet.
This game is difficult, got to around the 6-7 seventh year on 2nd try. Need quick reflex and luck. If you can stock up on lots of money, opium, and tea early the game is a lot easier. Count on losing lots of money the last few years.
Walking horizontally into the spikes and dying makes the game much more difficult. If you walk slowly into the blunt side of the spikes you die, this makes no sense.
Game is real difficult best so far 141. Must have been a difficult game to program, all that collision detection. 72 hours programming this is really impressive. I've taken several course on game design and in three months I couldn't make a game anywhere near as advance as this game.
Got 3085 in one run, I wonder how long the game is, perhaps infinite like busted breaks and epic coaster? I know there is an achievement for 5,000 so the game must be at least that long.
Said to be continued, I think I beat the game. Confusing ending if this was an ending. I'm trying to create a few games myself, did the flashing lights in the sprinkler room really cause seizers, I want to know for when I finally finish a game, thanks in advance?
Neat game 4/5 I like how it is so easy to be aggressive w/o being violent. Makes you think a lot about politics and society and that a pacifist can be extremely aggressive and just plain evil.
I've beaten easy and normal, but I failed twice on difficult. I can't get the 56 evolution points needed to deal with shooters, always 1-2 points short.
I like the game a lot. Not sure what increases speed of world domination, got to wave 61 with brain in a jar last game and this game wave 41 with witch doctor before I won.
Not enough ammo/health drops I can't reliably beat boss on stage two. Sometimes I can't even get to the boss since I run out of ammo before I reach the end of the stage.
