Heart of gold is a GREAT great way to fool the player. The entire game is based around collecting stuff, and right before it you get super jump, super gun AND invincibility.
Who would simply walk past that stuff on their first try? I certainly wouldn't.
It is annoying that most units past standard, and tier 1 are not upgradable.
Upgrading is HALF THE FUN in this kind of game :-P. What will I do with my 20 gems now that I have reached tier 3?
The game is REALLY good. it's fun and easy to play, yet challenging enough to keep the player thinking. For example after the 4'th day (which is way too easy btw ;)) I thought "Hey, those beam things are deadly, I have so many resources that I can place a few of those guys. Guess I'll go only with them". DEATH IN THE FIRST ROUND. Thus I decided to go with rifleman, fuel throwers and flare gunners. Worked :-).
And while the final stand is really hard it is totally worth the epic outro. Hope you make a sequel to this ^_^.
Did it in 35 ;P. Not even near the platinum. I guess to get platinum you need to get to 15 level in 15 days and hack at the dragon for 10 days xp.
Nice song though :).
Honestly why is there no "next system" button on the upgrade menu? Instead it's the "return to main menu" button and to be honest it's terribly confusing.
Whenever I want to start next level I end up in the main menu. And the way I'm SUPPOSED to pick next sectors is by sector level select screen which is in the tab with upgrades and weapons... Kinda weird.
Nice looking and fun but it has no much point as a "game". It's extremely luck dependent.
In fact it's a nice colourful version of playing one handed bandit. Only the odds are a bit higher.
