4. It's fun game, but there is no replay value, so might as well show all endings earned. Intentionally failing missions just to get slightly different ones isn't particularly exciting either. 5. All in all pretty fun game with some intersting concepts. I don't know why, but I just love flipping cards to find out missions/fights/other stuff, board game style. Wish there were more games based around this concept. Combat gets waaaay too easy later (new game+ with harder difficulty maybe?), but there was time early (first orange area I think; the one where bugs with all LO except poison first appeared) where things were quite difficult and required thinking. I liked that. IMO game deserves 4/5, so rated 5/5 to increase current low rating. ;)

4. At first the consequences for failing some missions were going to be more complicated but I thought you should be able to have a go at the boss, get all collectables and reach the end every time so that it wasn't frustrating. If someone likes a game enough they'll play it again even if it's exactly the same. I know I do. 5. Thanks for the constructive criticism. Combat is easy later if you've diligently levelled up, bought perks and collected characters! By this point the player may be bored with strategic spraying and just want to OHKO stuff, finish it and go to sleep. My precursor to this game is on the way: Threewise, mentioned in the intro. It has the same search mechanics but a different battle system and other bits. I'm waiting for the mythical Stencyl 3 launch competition which is why I haven't released it yet. Thanks for your rating too :)

1. Found everything but somehow first question mark in shop stayed there (2nd turned into "buy car" option). If this unlock is tied to defences found, then I found last defence and metropol during same day. 2. AP (re)generation could use some explanation in tutorial - bonus from first team (always start with full AP) combined with fact that using abilities sets AP at certain value instead of more traditional "costs some AP" approach made this particular mechanic little bit confusing at start. 3. Last gunner's roster says she hits all + KBK, but she only shoots one. Also heals gas bugs, which is strange since nothing even suggests that her dmg isn't considered regular ranged. This also makes her completely useless considering how late we can find her. 3. Bigger tanks + spray all takes same amount as hitting one = easy and boring mid and late game. Also it seems like most status inducing bugs are present only early game.
1. First question mark is a secret unlock which is not linked to defence squares or Metropols. It's hidden in plain sight. 2. OK 3. Oops, yes, that's supposed to say "target single"! She does do regular ranged damage. It's not her in particular that would heal gas bugs, it's a consequence of their DEF being much higher than your ATK, so the way the ranged damage is worked out it ends up negative and heals them. I should change it to read 'HP' really - it's because you used to be able to do a little bit of ranged damage but then I upped their DEF a lot. She's not useless, she has the best weapon in the game if you buy the secret unlock to upgrade her. 3. One should be enough but I left both in because removing one would have made the shop screen untidy. There are status inducing bugs in every area but if you equip certain characters/riot vehicle you'll be immune to their attacks and you won't notice them.

Has room for improvement. For one thing, you could add a "cancel" option for us to cancel attacks. There's nothing worse than realizing you don't have enough color to attack "all" enemies AFTER you've already selected the color combo. If I'm not able to attack all, I may just want to choose a different color/combo or to shoot. Maybe some difficulty levels/options where the easier ones give us more days to complete missions? This was the one aspect of the game that I found frustrating and annoying - trying to complete the early missions within the alotted time. Early on it can be frustrating if you don't get lucky enough to hit the mission squares or get the newslady. Also, what is the point of the attack stat? It doesn't seem to have any affect on spray damage? Is it only for range damage? Actually I didn't see a noticable difference in range damage either? 3/5
It would have been an extra layer of hurt to add a cancel option! However, it does show the amounts of each colour you have on the right so that you can work it out before deciding what to do. The World ending deliberately has the least time to complete so that you need to do it efficiently. That's why there are different endings. The ATK stat is only for ranged damage, not spray damage. Ranged damage also depends on the enemy's DEF - if that's higher then you'll do less damage. Try fighting early enemies after levelling up your ATK a bit and you'll certainly see a difference.

After finishing the "world end" game, we have to restart the game WITHOUT ANYTHING. It's so bad we lose all money + character unlocked. 4 endings so it takes a lonnnnng time to get all awards.
Carrying things over would make it far too easy. New Game+ in RPGs usually ruins any challenge and sense of progression for me.

oh, man... i'm not even sure where to start. there's a lot of stuff going on and the tutorials are terrible. i don't know what to look at, where to focus, and generally just initially turned off. there's probably a decent game in here somewhere, but i'm not willing to find it.
There is a lot going on but stick with it, try things out and you'll soon be vanquishing giant bugs like the true Civil Defence Hero you're meant to be! The battle tips are just there to give a few pointers. I put them in at the last minute because I thought most people wouldn't read the help pages at all.
