Milan, question is whether the ratio of those types of games is still relevant for the games brought out in the past year or so. Plus, on the homepage it show loads of them. But, if they are there it is because are being played :).
:( Please read this thread. http://www.kongregate.com/forums/929761-stellar-squad/topics/825241-lost-save And also I can generate a savegame regarding your progress.

Ok, I have to say this. The plot says that those robots were designed to help people. They were supposed to be peaceful. How can a gun wielding robot be designed to be peaceful? :P
Terraforming a whole planet takes lots of efforts, so it is fair to give robots some advanced tools to make ther work faster. You know, you can use hammers either building houses or crushing skulls :)

Almost everyone's complaining that there are too many idle games... but there are just under two thousand according to Kong's front page. On the other hand, there are almost ten thousand RPG's fourteen thousand shooters and thirty seven thousand puzzle games! Don't get me wrong, I don't like Idle games as much as the next guy, but you can't state that Idle games are overrunning Kongregate when there are almost forty thousand puzzle games on this site.

Idle games are popular but isn't this mostly the fault of those playing them? So many play while at work and then a Idle game seems like a great solution. Anything that asks for the mind to do some work is rapidly becoming too much for those who like to, well, idle. I too play Idle games but something about the "old" or thought-out games still seem more pleasing to me. I do wonder what devs have to say about those walkthroughs that get out within a day and thus undermining the challenge of a puzzle game. Moral of the story, Gamers want a challenge, Idlers a reason to click...
To all the devs out there, keep up the good work and keep coming up with ways to entice the gamers to use their brains, not just their click click click reflex. In the meantime, much obliged for all the great free, and other, game that are still being made by u all :).

A lot of people are commenting how we don't see games like this anymore. I believe it's a cross between users' fault, and Kong's. The only games that hit the home page are rated 3.5 and above. So every time you rate a game 3 or less, you're screwing the dev. Their game will never be found, will never get played, and there's no point for them to make games anymore. Even this game is struggling to stay above a 4. To anyone who rated it less than 5, what were you wanting- for the game to send you a pizza? This is one of the best FREE games we're seen in quite some time and some putzes are giving it less than the 5 that it deserves. Hobbyist devs don't stand a chance, and get discouraged and give up. Or just defer to the addictive but boring concept of idle games since they at least work.
Thanks! Actually, there are some other reasons why there is a lack of a good free web games. Some of them are mobile gaming and a wide spread of Adblock.

i have to say this game is great and it did deserve the award , the music is great , the difficulty is kinda hard , but with all these super easy games nowadays is good to see something like this , the upgrades are realy good , if you have a lot of trouble just farm for a while and done , probably you have everything u need. the only thing i dint like is the extreme enemy spam and while i like that there are tons and tons of enemies my pc does not like it , when i search for flash games i would like 30 fps not 20 or less and there is no graphical configuration thats the only problem i have , still good game 9/10 i would like to see myself enjoing more of your games in the future.

Just to give an example how much kongregate has degraded, this game would probably never have gained a score over 4 stars a couple of years ago. Not to say it's a bad game, but it would have been one of many. In these desperate times, however, it's an extremely welcome sight. And kudos for the payment model, it should be the industry standard, sadly it isn't.

There's a relic that says it grants a chance for +3 accuracy on a shot, but a +3 would be bad, since a 0 is a 100% chance. Surely it's a -3?

I expected more from you, the older ones are so much more gritty. I was expecting your games to expand upom the older ones, but oh well, you still have much potential to explore.

Character knockouts are brutal. Losing all specialization/training for a character, and the loss of those points, pretty much means you'd better just restart the stage.
There are lots of ways of dealing with all threats, and all early stages are mostly tutorial ones. Some tips: use tactical pause (spacebar) to take a breath and make all needed preparations, consider rearranging all upgrades, change your tactics - e.g. having units of all available classes gives a good advantage in combat.

Stellar Game, in desperate need of badges. Platon Skewdow, much obliged for a great game that does indeed remind us all of the good old Kongregate games :).

Quickest way to farm $$ is at Act 3:Level 6 (hard mode). Double the speed and right click a random spot on the ground to let the mobs through. $100 in 10-12 secs.
I'm making a special game mode for those who seek for additional challenge and the best way of farming credits :) Can't say when it will go online, as I don't want to publish a raw product.

YES GREG, do not forget to make achievments to another crappy pay-to-win games instead of such diamonds like Stellar Squad

The game does not load. It remains on the loading page. No percentage number just "Loading ..." with the background. I'm on Opera 46.0.2597.39 with Flash 26.0.0.131
Users have already reported several issues regarding the Opera browser that I was failed to fix :( Please consider using Chrome. And also forgive me for a late reply, I've missed your comment. Cheers!

But no! you can earn as much as you want with-out forcing yourself to get dig deep into your pockets! right from the bat it really impressed me! I gave it a 5/5 and made it my favorite! good job!

better then most of the complete lack of anything interesting these days but still overtuned and lacks interesting features
Sad to hear that. Please check this thread: http://www.kongregate.com/forums/929761-stellar-squad/topics/825241-lost-save
And also feel free to send me a MP, it is possible to restore your progress.

I often find that Hacking+Rocket is a better active ability combo than Grenade+Rocket. On that note, when you aren't worrying about shielded enemies, Flash Strike pairs up well with Stun Grenade.

@GiGaSojgan: that doesn't include Splash damage (Heavy), Burning/Rocket (Marines), ... So Medics have (arguably) good dps but only to one target.

Idea for a new feature: All a unit to be marked to auto-upgrade when action points are available. It would make the game slightly less clicky.
Well, I should argue :) This is a kind of decision that a player should do. There are enough other ways of spending APs by the way. And also hotkeys may help alot handling those upgrades. Q or E + A or D.
