Under rating threshold (show) If you are having problems with the random weapon challenge- "Complete the level with 25% or less of your health left." Change your armor to the armor you are supposed to wear for that level. It worked for me.

Under rating threshold (show) Hey arkuni. Just wanted to say I'm sorry you got so much bad feedback on the premium content... I dont plan on buying it myself (i play kongregate actually because i can't spend a dime on anything) but I think you have the good attitude : premium content is absolutely optionnal and i enjoyed the 80% of the game just fine. Some games make premium frustrating (gemcraft labytrith's was frutrating for me) but on yours I don't mind. Good luck for your next game !

Under rating threshold (show) @hend Weapons can be upgraded past level 5 once you beat the game and access Paradox mode. All you have to do is buy level 6 with inventium for each weapon in the shop. Entering Paradox mode also increases the level cap.

Under rating threshold (show) The game designer really knows how to upgrade everything in a cool way. Every weapon gets a special ability, cool special tasks in every mission, perks, and not to mention collectibles. well planned out.

Under rating threshold (show) So you travel to different worlds, each with a few stages, leveling up Weapons, Gadgets and Armor, all while trying to stop a mysterious alien threat. Occasionally, you have allies that join in, but they're useless. There are challenges that yield extra rewards, and the full game costs $50. Someone please tell me this isn't the next Ratchet and Clank installment?

Under rating threshold (show) A lot of negativity on the comments it seems, this developer has gone out of his/her/their way to develop a really good game. It has witty dialogue, some fun weapons, great upgrades, and after playing through it one time, leaves you hungry for more. Please stop with the just rate 4/5 because it has premium content. Either go play it on the developers site, where it clearly says free access to premium content, or just be happy with what you get on kong. If you think the price is too steep, don't pay, but don't bitch about it either. Also on a side note: The developer extended some negative comments real courtesy by responding and explaining his reasons to the posters of those comments. Thank you for that Arkuni, it is a rare thing amongst game developers on free sites! Thanks for a great game! Can't wait to see what you are cooking up next!

Kong is a pretty important place for me, so it's only in my best interest to be as active as possible. With that said, it's still a pleasure when you stumble upon a comment like this :)

Under rating threshold (show) Would have been nice to see weapons level beyond 5. As it stands now, with just a few minutes of grinding you can max out two or three of the weapons. I assume there is also a low player level cap, which would be unfortunate. The RPG elements feel too limited because of this. Combine that with the "premium shop" and this game that on paper would be a 5, comes down to a 3.

+ - !

Developer response from Arkuni

The RPG elements feels too limited because you THINK there is a level cap? Well, once you complete the campaign once, you can replay it with additional 5 levels to all weapons and 50-60 more character levels.

Under rating threshold (show) Really awesome game. I wouldn't mind that premium stuff if there weren't so many of those offers... I'd suggest that you try to put them into smaller bundles or so. All in all 4/5 Btw.: there is a game very similar to this one, anyone knows how it is called?

There is a mega-pack which can be bought from the Premium tab in the base. Saves you are lot of kreds too.

Under rating threshold (show) COMMENT FOR DEVELOPER - I quit the game midway, then reloaded. Now after I finish a stage (whether fail or complete), I can't return to base. I keep clicking on it, but all it does is reload your ad to go to bubblebox. Please fix ASAP so that I can continue playing.

A friend of mine played the whole game only with the Quick-Silver (I rushed home and nerfed the hell out of it afterwards!) but he actually bought some of the earlier weapons, just to ignore them and annoy me. The table got turned when he had to use an entire arsenal of level 1 weapons because of the Random Weapon Round :D

Under rating threshold (show) To bad the dev made premium content, this game could win the week or monthly kongregate competition for best game and get rewarded with some good $$$$$$ , since the dev made his decision about made premium content, players have they rights to dowvote it to 1/5. It's not childish at all , everyone have they rights to express they own opinion.

Under rating threshold (show) Dear dev, dear kongregate, I paid the 10 bucks to get me everything. And now I am not able to do the challenge at 3.4 because I am practically invincible. Inventium gives me tons of healths, killing enemys gives me health and I got medpacks en masse flying at me. Each of those gives me loads of health because of another perk. So how am I supposed to get my health below 25% for the challenge? Maybe a "switch off" for the perks could do the trick...

Developer response from Arkuni

Kill everyone except for 1 dude. Let him maul you down to 5-10% health and smack his silly face with a rocket.

Under rating threshold (show) That attack was nullified. As such, it did not make contact. Since I was not harmed or damaged, I can expect my combo to be okay and my horribly overpriced guns to continue being affordable, yes? No. Not at all. And that pisses me off. If an attack is nullified or blocked it should, in fact, not reset the combo.

Under rating threshold (show) I *hate* having to pay for games. This is why my only console purchase was an SNES. But this game is getting a bad rap for its pay wall. Without a doubt, this is one of the biggest shooters I've played on Flash. And, unlike a lot of similar games, the newgame+ feature actually kept me coming back. Just playing the same game, but with slightly harder enemies, always seemed rather dumb to me. But being able to get further upgrades to already seemingly overpowered weapons made the replay exciting and fun. The game itself is more than complete, and to imagine that there are more features that I can pay for boggles my mind. This isn't an issue of shipping out an incomplete game and you are expected to foot the bill for the rest of it; this is fully-formed, replayable, and enjoyable. 5/5, and great job!!

Under rating threshold (show) Give the coil caster wayyy more ammo... It is the slowest gun to level up. Make the randomizer stronger and make it easier to fire up in the air with it. Try and make some more gadgets and add them to the game. And the hubbub over premium stuff can be solved by making achievements actually do something.

Jan. 05, 2012

Under rating threshold (show) Okay, my instinct was to give 1/5 for the same reasons as everyone else; premium content on what we perceive as a free site is irritating. That said, this game is a quality piece of work, and I can see the logic in giving it 4/5 since 80% is free and 20% is premium. Even that, though, feels unfair; if the game had come out with only the free content and I never knew the difference, it would've been a 5/5 without hesitation, so that's what it should get.

Developer response from Arkuni

I thank you for ultimate decision :)

Under rating threshold (show) Makes me wonder why people cry about premium content. The game itself is fun and addicting even without those items. And it's completely up to you whether you should pay or not, i'd rather spend some money here and support the developer than pay for one of those "next gen" crappy games.
