trib4lmaniac - good call the basic gameplay mechanic was inspired by Orisinal, although the rest of the game is fairly different. Others - sorry problems with not getting badges are likely to be internet connection errors. Most people seem to be getting them awarded ok.
RotBottom - well with every game I've made some people say its easy while others say its hard! I'd suggest investing quite heavily in potions (mana for Hamster, health for others) at the expense of weapons and armour, which you can't always afford to buy...
Thanks Alex6015, I even mentioned that in the 'updates' section but people just like to jump to conclusions I guess. Apart from the basic mechanic of expanding circles, its not even all that similar to Filler.
Thanks VoodooRoller ;) Challenge 5 tip - make a cirplosion in the center, but _not too big_. Then make a big cirplosion and wait for orbs to bounce back into it.
ctrenkamp - defence is the British English spelling, defense American English. All my spelling is like this, for example "armour" rather than "armor". You'll get over it. Others - either "you can't win" or "god this game is easy"! If you use the right strategies, its pretty easy, but figuring out the strategy is the point of the game. mastergoblin - you are the first to submit scores in the programmer art version, nice one ;)
Thanks all, yes the bling is just for flava. ApeKing - the game gets quite hard and you definitely need a lot of potions. But I don't think its unbalanced or too hard, many people have completed it with all the characters.
Platformers aren't really my thing, but this is a very nice game. A bit of humor, excellent graphics and 3D effect, and originality. Restarting a level from the beginning could be a major turnoff though. Don't know why the reviews are so bad here, it will do well on other sites.
Well its a great little game with a lot of nice touches. But for me it is very hard. It seems like only a matter of time before something unlucky happens, like an orange hits something else and splats you, or a blue one goes through your swing, or a big green one forms right behind you etc. Which makes it very frustrating when you die. The rewards are great fun, but you can only take one in with you. To me having health or lives would be better, or at the very least making the small nest less challenging!
Hey Xant, yes the hamster is probably the easiest character if you use the right strategy. The game can still be beaten with the other characters though. Dragonballslayer, maybe it is you that is "retaded"? :P
Jigjaw, playing a game first is a good basis for judging it! And the animals don't walk. Others - I assure you that it is not all luck, its just a matter of working out what the effective strategies are!
