Under rating threshold (show) Game is good, but a cross hair would be a nice touch... I can't really feel the game with me seeing my mouse. That's all and 5/5.

Under rating threshold (show) 5/5 because it's a shooter game that I actually enjoyed and I'm not a huge fan of 'fly around in a space ship and blow things up' type games.

Under rating threshold (show) Game like milion others. No upgrades, no 'special' events, no scenario, no diffuculty - the same lvl of difficulty of first and last lvl (but another ship...) 3/5

Under rating threshold (show) It's...kind of boring honestly. It's the same thing over and over again. All you do is shoot, shoot, shoot, buy ship and repeat. Upgrades are a must, as well as side missions and mini-games. Keep it from going stale, 3/5.

Under rating threshold (show) few things I dislike are the "barbarian" aka, their weakest ships that still live for few seconds after you have dropped your hp, and the shielded bug ships because i need to find their beacons to drop the shield (annoying to kill ^^) but its just minor things. otherwise its a great game with perfect difficulty and length for a nice and (somewhat) relaxing time waster :). good job there, 5/5 from me ;)

Under rating threshold (show) So the villains are smart enough to build space travel capable super ships of destruction, but not smart enough to realize that sending slowly increasing waves of weak ships so as to acclimate the pilot against their forces might not be the best plan. Maybe they'll learn someday.

Under rating threshold (show) I agree with GhostShogun. I am having the same issue with beating "The Big Guns. 4 Waves /58 Units : Very Hard" mission . This is driving me crazy. I have tried with the sniper ship. I have tried with the Shock and Awe. I have tried with the 30k "Crusher" Ship, and I fail on each one. Each time I can get to the final stage, but when you face 2 or 3 of those huge shielded ships with the Huge circular electrical sphere's they shoot. It's impossible. I also think you need to destroy the little ships around it that cause it to be shielded. I still can't beat it. I'm hoping someone has a strategy I'm overlooking.

Under rating threshold (show) I don't know why this is so very difficult for me but I have serious problems with tracking drones. They followed me around for 6 waves before it crashed into me and neither explosives nor my own bullets can destroy it. Is there any way to kill it without crashing into it?

Under rating threshold (show) This game has so much potential. The graphics are mid blowing and give the same euphoria as when I played Total Annihilation. The controls, look and feel reflect the atmosphere of Bubble Tank which I enjoyed playing so much. Both are so close, yet so far apart. What made Bubble Tank truly unique was that hits from both sides had a immediate influence on statistics. Hit and get stronger, get hit and become weaker. This whole concept is missing. You keep playing on (maximum) status until you pop. Incoming hits are taken for granted because scrap just increases life not stats. You enhanced the engine to levels beyond awesomeness, but it misses the shine. Just as if it were an amputated Bubble Tank 4. The Bubble Tank experience (and code) is there, please don't let that stay in the shadows.

Under rating threshold (show) to the developer, I hope there was a multiplayer of this type of game... like 2 teams have their own bubble where opponents can't enter and there is this center bubble where we blast each other....

GhostShogun

Sep. 16, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Can somebody tell me how to beat The Big Guns stage? Nothing works. Only the $30k ship can even last through wave 2. At wave 4 there are huge shielded ships that take an insane amount of beating and spam missiles everywhere. I just can't beat it.

Under rating threshold (show) I wasn't exactly sure what rating to give this game in the beginning. I mean yeah, it's exactly Bubbletanks in Space, nothing new there, but still - kinda fun. Then I saw the rating-whoring from the developer ... 1/5

Sep. 16, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) I find it rather disturbing that the developers would be so lazy as to just slap different graphics onto an old game and then plead for high ratings so that they can make improvements, as if that mattered. You don't get 5s from promising to make the *next* game worthy of them. I had this at 3/5 (rather generous considering how tepid the gameplay is), but knocked it down to 1/5 for the pandering. You want 5s? EARN them.

Under rating threshold (show) Might just be me but the one-liners and insults are so weak and pathetic that it pissed me off enough to write this comment. That aside, more customisation (purchasing weapons instead of ships with preloaded weapons; purchasing ship sizes with more weapon slots but larger hit box; etc.) would have been nice. Otherwise nice game. 4/5.

Sep. 16, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) insanely boring. I mean there's no challenge, I don't even dodge most of the projectiles yet my health is rarely below 95%. it would be more interesting if these weak enemies came all at once in a wave, not like 1 then 2 then 1. also the developer seems to 'push' people into giving 5, and that is just terrible.

Sep. 16, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Ummm... where to start? Go google 'difficulty curve.' This game starts out stupidly easy, and ends stupidly easy. I think by the 4th level I decided I had to move my ship to survive the round... The upgrade sequence is linear and poor, the flight zone is restricted to a small area though of course enemies can shoot you from off-screen (but you can't target them from off screen with seeking missiles). The dialogue is pulled randomly from a set of strings. If it weren't for the badges, would not have played past the 2nd or 3rd level.

Under rating threshold (show) It seems like 'Shock and awe' ship can cause a little bug: you can zap an enemy ship away from the battlefield/circle and it seems meaning you can't shoot them down. They fly back in eventually, but it takes a lot of time.

Under rating threshold (show) "We need your 5's and to increase the rating to make a sequel more likely" - Hero No offense, but sponsors don't have unlimited funding, and the money Dev A takes is probably cutting out Dev B. That said, I don't think the promise of a sequel should be factored into the rating for any game outside of *maybe* chapter/episode based games.
