to anyone struggling with the small window size, search 'magnifier' on your computer (its a pre installed app on your pc) and put the elona window in a top corner of your screen

What I did to keep playing was download a copy of the SWF for elona shooter (not the Kong version and version 120, so some functionality not there), then got an old version of flash from the links on this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/FlashPlayerForever/comments/kp69ix/how_to_use_flash_player_after_january_12_2021/
After installing that player and the Pale Moon browser, I can play the standalone SWF but the version on Kong just freezes while loading. Anyway, I'd rather keep the file locally on my PC because I suspect Kongregate and other sites will kill all the flash games if someone doesn't quickly come up with an effective emulator.

to anyone who wants to still play this game safely, as it seems emulators won't cut it for now, Project Flashpoint is the answer. they have the game there

After 10 years I am back to get this impossible badge. Just remembered what sucked in this game, the RNG! So random that victories are more defined by chance than skill or strategy.

Impossible badge acquired!:)
With a noble lvl 97 (+ sniper, hunter and rogue) and most importantly, the five mods crossbow.
Overall, bow mastery is a great crowd control skill and I wasn´t able to get past lvl 30 with any other class than hunter/noble.

Money is everything. Many upgrades carry a higher "upkeep" cost than your income.
At the end of the first day, buy Museum 1, House 1,your first helper, and repairman if you have enough money.
Every day, buy one chicken.Every 10 day period, buy: 1 Museum, then 1 Villa, then 1 repairman, then 1 Wall, then Smith, Storage.
If your henchman gets love (militia!), buy sisters to 15 after this.
Sandbags. They're only useful in round 2.
You need 2 NPC grav gun users (Militia, Ranger, Noble). And at least one of them needs to be in slot 3, for battlefield balance.
2 grav gunusers: Defend No, Boss No, dont atack air
4th character: can be literally anything, i recommend Hunter with Engineer + Combat Shotgun. Defend Yes, Boss Yes, dont attack armored.
There is no RNG in this game. Every possible wave is a different type of dps check.Always carry 1-2 extra Oh Shit Grails.
Chickens are the most dangerous eneme because theyr'e hard to hit and ruin your perfect games.

Get flash while you can. Elona shooter is still brilliant all these years later. Thank you for another hundred hours!

@CluelessWonder: Wow, I first played this game 10 years ago, and I didn't even KNOW this game was based on another game. Thanks for the info.

Sold my pistol that takes 2000ms to reload in favor of a rifle that takes 300ms to reload, seemed like a no brainer... but the rifle doesn't reload, game over 1 star

Came back after a couple of years, just to find this shooter as good as it was back then.
No idling, no ingame purchases, good mechanics, nice concept and quiet hard to play. This one is fun.

This game is way hard... I've tried it 3 different times with all different types of strategies of what to save up for and it seems like the waves all of a sudden just get way too hard and my items match up with crap guns. Any pointers? Too frustrating to waste time on too much RNG. Also ill play the same wave 3 different times and sometimes its just impossible. Are the wave difficulties based off of your level or the day?

I just don't get how the developer doesn't understand what a crosshair is and how it works. Simply amazing ... The game is nice and fun, but jesus, if I'm aiming at an enemy I'm expecting the bullet to land somewhere in it's vicinity, not half a mile away.

I can't belive this game is still validly kicking perfectly. I'm happy about this because I played it a while ago and now i'm back.

I can't believe this was released 10 years ago... I played it when it was released back then and I loved it. I abandoned the game and I came back to it several times with the years. Now, finally, after 10 years, I got into it fully and I've been playing and enjoying it for several days and got far into the game, I kind of feel accomplished. We were getting such good games even 10 years ago, it's a shame the era of flash games is slowly coming to an end and with it all the creativity of devs who did this for more than just money.

Great Game!
@contrapoint of course this game is too hard for someone with a brain so small they believe contrapoints. GG

Must've played this game ages ago, but never bothered getting the badge. Didn't take long to re-figure why: one of the worst castle/tower defenders I've ever played. Needlessly over complicated upgrades and advancement. Ridiculous playstyle offerings considering some can barely progress beyond the starting gate. Progression and escalation is annoying as hell. Even the starting options are supreme overkill: no one needs so many characters to choose from. In a one-word summary, slop.
