Apparently many years ago I gave this game 4 stars. Having it as a badge of the day was an excellent opportunity to drop that rating down to a more reasonable 2. Why would you gate you levels by experience when there's a finite amount of experience? Why would you make the laser gates able to be jumped over? How did you publish a game and make two sequels and not figure out how to make sure the player can't get trapped and need to start all over to play the game? And yes, this comment is overly harsh because I was hoping to sneak in to get the badge of the day before it rolled over and I failed, but I'm mostly blaming that on the awful level design.

Last level is just terrible. First time through I wasn't L6 by the end and didn't know how to get a menu so just reloaded and found myself back at level 1. On subsequent attempts the key beyond the level 5 gate hasn't actually unlocked the gate, it's still barred and I can't get to the level 6 gate that I can now pass...

seriously whats up with the second boss, everytime i get it to like 1 hp it insta kills me, it always knocks me of the edge as soon as i spawn, its able to become partially invisible so you cant attack it, its just soooo stupid

Do you like back-tracking? Do you like pressing the "A" key? Do you like jumping to things that are too far away to see? Do you like pointless repetition of earlier levels to grind XP? HAVE I GOT THE GAME FOR YOU

getting stuck behind level requirements door with no way to continue leveling makes this game impossible to beat. Also, when I fought the lvl 2 boss (flame throwing one) as soon as i spawned, he shot me off the platform.
This is one badge of the day that I give up on.

Level 6, still can't beat the 4th stage? One of the gates doesn't unlock for me, and I can't find anything online for it.

the thing that makes me rage is when your lvl 5 and you need lvl 6 to get to the next boss. Also there's a glitch I think on the fourth lvl at the lvl 5 gate where even if your not lvl 5 you can go to the wall over it and fall down and pass through it. Though you need to hit lvl 5 to get back out. Which I barely got.

I've spent the last four hours of my lifeplaying this game in order to get the badge of the day. I had to repeat the last stage about 3 times because I was lacking XP. Now that I've completed it, Kongregate doesn't acknowledge that I should have the badge. I didn't use any cheats so there's no reason why I shouldn't have it. I WILL be raging if I don't get my Kongpanion today >=(

65,802. They tricked me. I was on a box, and they didn't attack. I jumped a few times, making sure if it wasn't by chance, and they still didn't attack. I then decided to stop jumping for a second. Then, they attacked. Knocked me off the edge. I knew they would get smarter, I didn't know they'll get deceptively smarter, though. So close to... Aw, well. I guess I can try again another time.

Guys!!! If any of you are having trouble to get the medium badge, like if you are in the last stage but don't have enough level to pass it, you can simply restart the stage to get more points!!! You can press "p" and then go to "menu", save your game, and then choose the 4th stage again. You'll begin with the same amount of XP so all you'll need to do is get more until you reach level 6! Hit + so everyone who start can see this and get the badge easily!!! ^-^

BADGE OF THE DAY HINT: There's only 4 levels and 4 bosses. Try and get RAGE before you enter boss portal (so you have it during the battle). Use guns to stun enemies, if they are in difficult places. If you don't meet the lvl requirement for a gate. Go to MENU and then pick the level you were on, repeat until you have enough levels (Still able to acquire badge, does not count as loading game).

Don't even start level 4 if you are not 1000/1500 experience. You need to be level 6 to beat the game, so go to the main menu, and play Arcade version 1 until you have that much EXP. Then you can start and finish level . Terrible Controls -_-

The level requirement for the fourth gate is 6. 6! I'm level 8 right now! I started this arcade at level 4. Sure, it might take awhile. But that's why they gave you the arcade after stage 2, they want you to try it! And, after you do. Who knows? Maybe you'll be level 6 or higher. I haven't even done the third area yet, been busy on this arcade. You should give it a try. Its pretty fun once the floor is rainbow colored by the enemies you slain. >:D

Had to restart level 4 twice because I wasn't high enough level for the gates. It's not a good way to extend the length of the game.

44,200. Half way there! Same things happen at 30,000 and 40,000. There's an increase in the amount of guys, and they get a little smarter. (Yeah, the A.I Gets harder, can you believe that?) I mean, I was able to stand in front of 5 guys at once around 3,000 for a few seconds, and they'll just stand there. Now, the second I am in their hit area, they attack. Making me have to jump around constantly, dashing in the air to kill them off. Needless to say, its getting pretty tough.

Patrick, the leveling increases your health. (100% at level 1, 118% at level 7) And the damage you do might also be increased ever so slightly. I remember back a long time ago, when I first started to get onto computer games. I played this, with a few other games made at the time. I got to level 28, and I was doing insane amounts of damage, and I had a lot of health (181% I think) Your complain is invalid, because what you're complaining about doesn't even exist. At least, the leveling complaint. I bet you barely even played the game.

It's interesting because I feel rage at the opposite time as the character does. I'm happy enough fighting enemies, but I'm much more enraged when aimlessly wandering around or falling off a platform.

27,000.... When you reach 20,000, and 25,000. Just a little something as a clue. "Its raining men, hallelujah! its raining men! Amen!"

Just broke 18,000. Are...Are they getting stronger? I mean, they seem to be able to take more hits now... Well, more hits, equals more points per kill. So i'm not complaining. :D

Well, Kesshi. There are arcade modes you could do to reach the level requirement. You don't have to go back and forth, you just chose to. I'm currently going for the high score in Arcade 1. At 7,400 right now. Just need 81,000 to go...

There is so much that can be improved on this game, bar the visuals. There is no clear indication when the platform ends and the air starts, attacks slow down the gameplay and bosses are a joke most of the time, since you just keep your distance and shoot at it. I can't even commend this game for its originality, since even most of the mechanics are taken from other popular games. And the leveling, oh, the leveling. It's pointless. The only reason you level is to open gates, which is just a timewaster. It doesn't make you feel valid for your actions, and it doesn't do anything to your stats, not even visually. And some variety in the attacks would be cool, I mean, it's essentially a one-button beat-em-up, and we all know how fun that sounds. Press A to win.

I joined Kong in 2008. Good games weren't this bad then. Actually Kong's game quality has been slowly declining since then. You could press attack and then jump without a delay between. You could fight bosses without immediately getting knocked off the platform before having a chance to move because the game wasn't "ready" to listen for your keypress. You guys claiming 2008 explains the poor gaming experience must not actually remember 2008. The game was just poorly made then same as it is now.

Finished through it, no hard feelings, developer, but this doesn't feel like a finished game, this feels like a first back-handed attempt at ever making one

The game needs a way to go back to menu when you get xp stuck. Sucks to get stuck and almost at level 6 with no way to at least suicide. Also, a bug. Last level you can bypass the level 5 barrier by climbing to a ledge above, jumping off the side, and keep right key held down. Will let you pass.

Making you have to go back and forth and back and forth through level content you've already done artificially makes the game longer. It also makes things boring. I can understand putting secrets in these areas for the hardcore and/or adventurous players, but making it a requirement in an action game slows down the feel of the game, and leaves a very bad taste in my mouth.

For those stuck on that door you need to be level 6 for. Jut pause, hit menu, start over. The game remembers your level and gear, so you get the xp on each level and can finish for your badge.
