The upgrades don't seem to be much of an upgrade. For example on the run that got the BOTD for me, speed was 2 away from maxed. But in all honesty it still felt and looked like I didn't upgrade at all. This seemed to be the way for other stats too such as attack speed.

not to mention that the progressive starter upgrade doesn't really curb the escalation. and Wave 18 damn near froze my computer. when 3 minibosses showed up i thought it was over. when more started popping up and riddling the screen with bullets and miniboss instances (must've been at least 8), i just let 'em kill me off. my comp can deal with bullet hell. that is not bullet hell: it's instance hell. dunno how i was even s'posed to win that.

interesting shmup, but needlessly over-complicated from the get&go. and i think the addition of extra characters, since most provide too little variation (and only one is really worthwhile anyway) were thrown in to make up for the lack of replayability. plus, your party moves like a tank regardless of how much speed you put into it. this ain't Commando, though i am thankful for the lack of difficulty. and honestly, making something "retro" doesn't make it "good": the music is grating house variations that stale and annoy after the first few minutes. need to be able to mute the music w/o muting the sound, so i can crank up something fitting. @guardian angel: no, this formula has been repeated a million times over. it's not unique at all. you just haven't been playing the right games. try on some Touhou or something.

4 witches is way better than 4 ninja, reason for that is u can have special on allways. ninjas r good but as u proceed u lack firepower which witches have in abundancewith the special turned on always ;)

Got 30k on survival mode twice with 4x Ninja and 4xWitch... 4x Witch is the best for me.... Spammable special = Machine gun.

Why the hell do you move so slowly when you're trying to go backwards? The enemies are so much faster than you are, so when you dont kill a chaser, and it gets too close, you're getting hit no matter what you try

*in the army* Sir, the aliens are attacking, what should we do?
Just send these kids, they will do the job for candy.

My winning setup was 2 ninjas, 1 cat and 1 knight. The cats help you to chain your special attacks nearly right after when your previous special ends. The knight blocks 75% of the incoming damage. Chain that and you'll get a very effective shield.

I can't believe it, but 2 Ninjas + 1 Cat & 1 Robin Hood (when you unlock him) kinda blows the 3 Ninja/1 cat team away. I had considerably less trouble (and utilized the special attack less frequently) with that Hood on my team. The added power in the front allowed me to mow down enemies with a simple sweeping motion, and I didn't have to pause to get those followers in front of me to fall. Overall, this is game is a lot of fun and kept me playing to earn the hard badge! Absolutely perfect music to keep me going, too.

It`s a very nice game. Graphics simulate 8-bit, catchy music and fun and unexpected enemy placement really make this game shine. But there should be a short-key for the pause button, like P. It`s kind of annoying having to click the pause button everytime you have to/want to pause. Though despite that minor flaw, the game is really good and original. 5/5.
PD: My setup to win the game was Knight-Pirate-Pirate-Cat. It actually defies expectations and works really well.

I used the cat, witch and 2 ninjas team. Ranked up all the way to hero and then did the survival. Around level 18 I managed to get the third badge.

I think I found a winning combo. 1 witch, 1 cat, 2 ninjas on opposite corners (helps with their weapon spread). By the end, I had my buffs up like 80% of the time at least. I could probably have it up permanently with a couple more levels. Could substitute the witch or cat for another of the other, i guess, but I like this balance.

This game reminds me of a mini game on pet RPG where it was you trying to survive. You started out with a really crappy weapon and every time you beat an enemy you would get "points" AKA money where you could buy better weapons. You didnt unlock any new characters or titles,but hey,its just a mini game. If it was as epic as this it would get its own game.

It is frustrating that progress is lost. Twice now, I have gone back down to soldier and have Survival mode locked after closing the game. The second time I checked everywhere to see if there was a way to save, even played a dummy normal run in the hope that it would save my progress.

Hey cool let's make the boss spawn slimes as far left as possible; should be easy to avoid them considering backwards movement in this game might as well not exist. /s
