The Demo Man would be a ton more fun to use if it's weapons were swapped around, so the rockets are the primary and the mines secondary.

I had no problems with the difficulty, the game was a bit laggy which made the gameplay feel a bit tedious by the time you got about half way through. The big kicker though, is that you don't even get an ending since the last level is an infinite level? Maybe it would have been predictable but your MacGuffin could have turned out to be something like a soda bottle or a teddy bear, but no, you get nothing. So the game loses stars. 2/5

Begging people to rate your game higher so your sponsors pay for a sequel is silly. Telling people who criticize your game and gave it a lower rating that: 1 You couldn't make a better game because you lack funding, 2 this lack of funding can be fixed by giving the game a better rating, 3 basically refusing to add game content that would improve your game because it doesn't have a good enough rating. Is a number of things but mostly asinine. If you want to get better ratings either make a better game, or take user suggestions and make your game better. I will not give a 5 star rating to a game unless I think it deserves it and I certainly won't be guilted into doing so by the developer of said game. I actually rated it lower than I normally would have because you're begging for a better rating, and no I'm not going to tell you how many stars that was.
Yeah, I guess I should clarify. What we are requesting is that players not hold ratings ransom, in other words give low ratings until their requested feature is implemented. ie. "I would have given you 4/5 but right now 1/5 until you add flying pony guns!"That's what we are trying to discourage as it won't allow us to add flying pony guns, it just tears the game down- it's not proactive. If you think the game is a rated something else on it's merits, by all means rate away.

Elikan, just take your mouse, hold down the left mouse key, and move it offscreen and back onscreen. It should autofire

"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.

If a single human pilot in a single one-man fighter is capable of taking on the combined armadas of five alien races, what's to stop humanity from simply taking over the galaxy through superior firepower?

I spent the entire first two missions trying to escape the endless "spinning razors" flying at me. Turns out those are coins.

Lacking auto-fire makes this game borderline unplayable. Save your scrap until you can't beat a level with the ship you are using, then but the most expensive ship you can buy with the scrap you have. You should have the 30,000 scrap ship by halfway through. Too bad the last level is completely impossible.

It's not dead metal, but still enjoyed the dead and roll. A good change for all that electronic music used in most games.

should put a unit counter during the level so you know how many units youve killed compared to the total for that level...that being said theres other little things but thats what the sequel is for...i gave it a 5...

To beat large green ships on the last stages, equip Crusher and circle around each ship at a closest distance. Do not mind taking some shots, after blowing the ship you will have enough scrap to heal.

Whoa, that's the same gameplay as bubble tank! Wait... Same developper? Oh...
C'mon, try to bring some fresh ideas to this genre instead of copying your own games... Same kind of attacks, battle area in a big bubble, same kind of ships, exactly the same attacks from the opponents...

the exiled have strong ass small fries, they have two guns, and they last a few sceonds after their hp bar is finished, which is really annoying when they come in swarms, as the flamethrower can no longer destroy them instantly,

Big fan of BTs but this was disappointing. Compared to BT the music is subpar, the music in BT was awesome while the music in this game feels like it's some bad techno from the 80's. Controls are superb as always, kind of repetitive, no weapon upgrades. Honestly I think you guys went backwards with this one. Some of the elements that made BT such a good game was extreme customization in the end of BT (3 and 4) and freedom to explore wherever. It's hard to top a game like BT but this was just a step back from that...in my opinion.

NASA spends billions on getting rockets to the moon when we can pay 30,000 pieces of scrap metal and get an OP alien crushing spacecraft. NASA needs to up their game

After 4 Levels, I really can't find any real interest in continuing. Levels are just too monotone, can't be bothered to try to get the medium badge.

I want to like this but I am constantly dealing with the issue of keys and such getting stuck - getting the standard fire stuck ON due to, I guess, holding it during dialogue is one thing.
Starting the boss stage and *not being able to move* is another.
Mostly we are requesting that players not give low ratings until their requested feature is implemented. ie. "I would have given you 4/5 but right now 1/5 until you add flying pony guns!" If you want more features, we need your support! Be proactive, don't tear down a decent game.

Pro tip: The real challenge it's on the last level, just take the last ship, and DON'T go on circles shooting, as the big green ships appears, destroy they the fast you can, that way, the "invencible system" don't trigger, and you got a BIG heal after each explosion!

I have to buy a whole new ship to make an upgrade? Would be much better if I had one ship and upgrade different componenets

I love your guys response to comments. People point out flaws or improvements and you say rate it a 5 so we can get money then make changes. You know the game lacks things but you want us to rate a 5 anyway. You got it backwards. Make a good game then it gets ratings of 5. Don't make a lacking game and tell people to rate 5 so you can make a good one.
Basically it comes down to what is going to be most productive. It's common on Kongregate to hold ratings ransom: "3/5 until feature X is implemented, then 4 or 5/5." It's totally understandable, people want to see the game improved. But it's extremely counterproductive and it doesn't foster improvements. 1) Players usually underrate a game that is actually much better than it's now lower score. 2) People don't invest money and time into low rated games. That's all it comes down to. We care about our players, and we are working to make improvements. But we need everyone's support and help!

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.

Just an idea for a BT4, you have a simple shooter type game and a td game, why not make a sort of RTS game? That would be interesting :D 5/5 on the game though :)

Normal logic says shoot ship until health bar is gone and ship will explode, well first encounter with exiles defies that by having them keep flying around for a while long after their ships should explode while still firing at you. Makes fighting 5 at once annoying because they stick around firing at you when they should already be an expanding fireball and flying space debris.

Too bad their nifty source of infinite ammunition isn't possible to scrap for metal. Oh well, at least there's a ton of incompetent and wasteful alien ships with a death wish

Great game! 5/5 but it could use some work, the maps (or map, rather) gets a little too bland after a while. Great idea and I love the ship mechanic with the funny hair.

Between lag, bright idea to let bullet hell enemies lead their shots, too small display area and entire faction with last stand-like ability, this game is barely playable and thoroughly UN-enjoyable.

I understand what you're trying to do with your plea for higher ratings to get funding. That doesn't make the argument legit, however. I am a teacher and I don't say to my students "Give me a 5/5 rating and I will do my job better next time". If you want a 5/5 make a game that deserves it and quit shilling for ratings.
Yeah, I guess I should clarify. What we are requesting is that players not hold ratings ransom, in other words give low ratings until their requested feature is implemented. ie.
