I started to like this game...
But then the relentless missing, the enemies getting several critical attacks in a row, and R-E-T-A-R-D-E-D grammatical errors drove me insane. 2/5 for gusto but no substance.
The game...
5/5 for great platforming...
Kong...
gets 5/5 for stepping up and picking a hard but well developed game for badges instead of another 'shoot fuzzy animals' or another terrible game genre. Old skool platforming for the win!
I liked this game til I got to the last level... where it turns into a skill-less spam fest. If your tank gets killed in the first couple of seconds by (I think thats what it is) an artillery strike, your morale plummets and you lose. Also, what is up with the "minefield"? It will kill and entire squad! I look at the people who are spread way out but suddenly, all of them crumple.
About titans...
A fully upgraded titan takes a while to come out but definitely can change the tide of battle. Cave four is great for titans. You just attack until the revenge waves begin. Once they start, use some magic to buy time. Once a fully upgraded titan is on the field, the battle is over. A lvl 5 titan will run through anything and destory everything. Plus, if you use the healing spell, it will last the entirety of the battle. I don't suggest a titan (element is irrelvant unless you have the dark one, which is superior) for anything but the 3rd and 4th caves.
About your tactics for Cave 5 Frost Guard...
I agree with a lot of what you said. However, when I beat that stupid goblin, I did not have the luxury of Athena Protection. Also I do not agree with the use of the tank or the fire succubus. Both have a high chance of flinging the goblin randomly BEHIND your troops. Of course if this happens, your castle is pretty much gone automatically. Instead I would suggest fighters like the Black Knight and Taurus, both who when they connect a hit fling the enemy backwards. Combined with the remaining shooters, the little goblin will not even be able to move! Heck, it reality, the mermaid does 90% of the work...
And to everyone who is struggling to beat the 5th cave, pay attention to what FrostGuard said. Concentrating your spells can be really effective and help you crush that castle!
nichi67,
Fly around the sector again just to make sure you killed everything. If that doesn't fix it, you probably need to load. Just make sure you recieve a transmission from the ship before you head back.
Yeah,
You guys just suck. And by that I mean your computer sucks if you can't play it. The game is by no means the greatest game ever (Go see Sonny) but it is a fairly good game. It is not difficult to follow the BASIC INSTRUCTIONS the game gives you as Missions! (Example: Fly to point A, kill everything) So, if can't handle the complexity of this ASWD game, quit Kong now! 4/5
I find cave five funny...
I have terrible eyes and my resolution on my monitor is also poor. So I took me about five failures to even SEE that little invisible guy....
Ugh...
I understand that this game is meant to make fun of other sniper games...but COME ON KONG! As BoseXSteiner said, why does a 'JOKE' game get badges? What criteria does Kong use to decide what games get badges? I think the system needs an overhaul!
Oh and about the name...
HEAVY WEAPONS?! REALLY? Your most powerful gun is stupid duck, or a random lightning thrower! It should have been called....RANDOM SHOOTER IS RANDOM!
About lvl 58:
Completely up to chance. I have tried everyone's "OMG I BEAT IT SUPER EASY" set ups and came to realize two things:
1. Depends on how crazy the enemies are
2. Depends on how well lightning kills enemies
So, good luck!
Wow...
I have about the same accuracy at 65% as I do at 95%.
Yes, I understand that this game will let you miss unlike the other game in which every item gives you +25% to accuracy but #@#@ I should not miss one out of four hits at 95%. Even cursed, I have about the same accuracy... Grrr...
I think the card achievement messed up the frame rate on lvl 25. I played this game a long time ago and beat lvl 25 quite easily. However, after retrying the game to the get the card, I found lvl 25 quite difficult due to the fact the cursor would get stuck, messing up the the timing completely.
