nice idea to reflect bullets. i played till lvl 20 but the game is too easy by far. the reflection goes exactly to where the mouse points, so if you keep the mouse over the current tank its dead after the first shot. 99% of the cases i have exactly 1 tank on the screen...

I recorded a play and found out its not just an optical illusion, that if you move the mouse too fast the enemy fire will pass through your shield because the game's boundaries arn't forming fast enough. I hate this game.

fail tanks are so stupid
especially those ultimate flamethrower tanks on lvl 49 >_<
and those missile tanks in the 40 lvls
i once saw one fire 6 missiles at once and i knocked out every single tank (10) on the field

huge tip: get inferno and the seeking missiles then just keep increasing the interest, and keep like 2000 in the bank, big money increase

You should be able to retry a lvl if you get 'Game Over' instead of having to start the whole game over... its frustrating + if you agree or so the creater can see

Sergeant - Dammit sir, we're throwing everything we've got at that base, but they just keep destroying us with our own ammunition!!
General - KEEP FIRING SOLDIER!!!
Haaahahahaha >.<

the final battle summary
for the tank who spammed the rockets mindlessly it was the day of his pathethic defat and shame where he was discharged mishonorly,but for the general camping behind the shield,it was tuesday

So wait let me get this straight this hi tech base has a shield generator but no weapons or ammo to stock your shield...doesnt make sense

Found a bug: if you couldnt kill the boss at the end of the level just click the pause button and you will be able to kill it! Just need to see trough the update menu.

Also, you might want to keep some enemies around when you do the bosses, especially the water/fire bullets, as they do more damage than normal ones. Just catch them and throw them at the boss :P

The modes aren't that hard once you play it a few times =)
The only annoying thing I have experienced so far is that it somehow removed my hiscore on Captain mode twice now (both got me to the no. 1 spot...)
As for General mode, think about how you spend your updates :P
I usually save up some cash, buy the damage/speed upgrades when it only costs ~10% of my money, and put all the upgrade points on Investment, except for three points on the all-round shield at level 25-30 :)
Good luck!

I've just readed alot of the comments and the most of then are walkthrough like things. The most have alot different ways of playing. My advice is to just play how you want and how you feel best with, but follow those walkthroughs if you want.

A great game, but i find the bosses on hard extremely anoying, havent killed any of them, since a) they are freaking hard to hit for something that large and b) no matter the upgrades i just cant do enough damage to them.

The strategy for beating this game is actually fairly simple. Buy one energy infuser after the first level, then stop spending your money except for repairs until any level ending in 9. Put all your bonus points into investment. On any boss level (ending in 9) buy 3 or 4 infusers and a couple of shield bounces. You should be able to take out the boss with at least a minute left to spare. If you're having trouble dying, buy the energy shield and a couple of cells for it. By level 30, you should have level 9 bounce and infuser with around 400,000 to get interest on, and be getting 200,000 interest every turn. More if you're not on general

A tip for before you get the sticky shield. Put your mouse right over your target and almost every time if the missile hits your shield you will hit that target.

Overall a good concept, but I have to agree with the earlier post about the fact that the Antimatter Shield and the Sticky Shield both use the mouse button. Too often I am trying to catch and fire things back at the tanks, and after buying the Antimatter Shield, it destroys most of the missles I am trying to catch. Take the mouse button and use it for the Sticky Shield, and only use the space bar for the Antimatter Shield.

Incase all help fails, listen to some rock music and go crazy. i mean it. this is not a joke. music helps other then the game music.

Oh and when you do get to Level 40, it's not Dodgeball anymore because you will be bouncing back alot of shots while catching and throwing them too. So call it Dodgeminton.

oh yea almost forgot, 6. NEVER BUY REPAIR KITS! They are complete shit and waste your money. Just stick with your sheilds when playing a level and Repair Base in the shop.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Incase people have a hard time before Level 40, have some tips: 1. ALWAYS buy the upgrade with the lowest amount AKA Sheild Bounce, Energy Infuser, Energy Cell, Upgrade Base, repeat. 2. ALWAYS repair damage from your base, even if it's 1 damage. 3. Buy both Sticky and Static Sheilds when you can before Level 5-6 to get yourself ready. 4. Do NOT buy any of the first 5 upgrades in the Bonus Shop until you have The Exploder, Heatseekers, E.M.P., Inferno and Antimatter Sheild. Once you have all 5 of those, dont bother with Investment, just buy the first 4 if you can. and 5. Good luck on Level 40 and over, your one your own from there.

Everyone who hates the Game Over screen: Be glad it's only about 5 seconds. In most games, flash AND Video Game, the Game over screen take about 8 or 10 seconds before you can choose restart, so be glad it's only 5 in this one.
