Under rating threshold (show) Great game 5/5! This is how you make a successful first game! Any game with upgrades is good, people love games with upgrades!

Developer response from Gama11

Upgrade complete, I guess? ;D

Under rating threshold (show) Glitch-If you get hit or open the upgrade menu JUST as the last bullet is hitting him, he won't take any damage and you'll stop shooting, a.k.a. he's immortal.

Developer response from Gama11

Hm, sounds like you had really bad luck, sry for that. Should try to fix this bug.

Under rating threshold (show) It is a good game, but i wish that the more defense you had the less damage was delt instead of more health. have a seperate upgrade for health

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Well, you also recover health more quickly with that upgrade, since the health you recover is based on the max hp.

Under rating threshold (show) i love the end that refers to the original game that colosos came from, when it says "maybe watch a video, maybe press refresh and start again" and when u press V it realy brings the video, i missed it :D

Under rating threshold (show) Wouldn't it be easier if we just had to burn the rope? Who wantss lasers and a spaceship when you can burn a rope with a torch?

Developer response from Gama11

The easiest way isn't always the best one.

Under rating threshold (show) Probs will get a badge for completing hard, I wonder why It has pretty low rating, I suppose to many people started with hard? ^^

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from Gama11

Badges normally require a rating of 3.75+, so it's rather unlikely that it'll get badges at all.

Under rating threshold (show) Spaceship with hightech lazor cannons? Pah, I did it by burning a rope.

Burning ropes is oldschool. :D

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) sounds like the 'Grinning Collosus' on the game you must burn the rope

+ - !

Developer response from Gama11

The letter "b" makes a difference in this case.

Under rating threshold (show) at the end we should have to shoot a rope to kill the cobossus

Ropes are outdated.

Under rating threshold (show) good game, if it had an epic closing music, it would be perfect

Not really the kind of feedback that helps me improving the game, but ok.

Under rating threshold (show) 2. Phase, u look for a good place, and stay, the "Things" will never hit u

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from Gama11

The "things" are mines - and you can't really do that in hard mode. ;)

Under rating threshold (show) where can I burn the rope?

+ - !

(6)

Developer response from Gama11

Good question, actually...

Manneke

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Hard mode is still too easy. you should add an impossible mode, maybe with slower xp or something like that. And the last boss is a joke. You should make shoot him permanently or add another weapon, he is way more easy than the third. and one more thing, i don't know if it's possible to block the mouse into the screen game ? its anoying when she's going out.

+ - !

(0)

Developer response from Gama11

When will ppl start to understand that feedback like this, containing well-reasoned criticism is actually way more helpful than a simpe "5/5" and actually _upvote_ it? Whatever. I'll consider adding an impossible mode for pr0s like you - I found the hard mode to be kinda hard myself. ;) If you mean "locking the mouse into the screen", no, Flash doesn't allow that.

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Fun game. also, I don't know if this is a bug or on purpose, after I'll killed the forth of fifth Cobossus. When the new one appeared I killed it in one shot, and everyone after that died in one shot. After 3 or 4 Cobi, I just 99'd myself.

+ - !

(0)

Developer response from Gama11

No need to downrate a bugreport, ppl, it's actually kinda helpful - since someone else reported me a similar bug, I guess I'll have to investigate into this again.

Under rating threshold (show) HUGE bug found. In the first achievement, "he" is called coLossus... Still lot of work to do on this game... :D

Developer response from Gama11

Thx - not really a bug, rather a typo, fixed in a new version. What's the other work to do you mentioned? Always glad about feedback. :)

Blackdeath23

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Umm... how long did you spend in MS paint making these graphics?

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Not sure if that's a compliment or not... ;D Whatever, I actually used "The GIMP 2.6".

fassaden

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) its a nice game...but way too easy. especially the hard mode is too easy.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

You thought so? I tried to make the hard mode challenging, but it's probably a piece of cake for a bullet hell pro. Still quite a challenge for most users, though, I think. Have you managed to beat it with 0 damage yet?

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Really very great for a first game! Dear Kong community: Support this guy, so we can see (hopefully) more games by Gama11 in the future. There are a lot of top developers, who would be very happy if they had such a game first of all in their portfolio. 5/5

+ - !

Another one of these comments that encourage me to make more games. Thank you for your support! :D

Under rating threshold (show) Mechanically there is nothing wrong with it. You just need to make a game with a lot more content (well-executed shmups and platformers are usually a recipe for success).

+ - !

(-1)

Developer response from Gama11

I agree this game is rather short, that's why I added a few game modes, like difficulty modes and survival mode. My next game will be longer and have more content.

Danaroth

Oct. 20, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Could be better, but really good for a first game. The worst problem is that you spend too much time for each boss mutation; your game will gain a lot if you make it faster and you are able to deal more damage, even at the cost to make boss' pattern harder.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

I thought the easy mode was kinda quick already - but I totally agree with you, if there were more boss phases and bullet patterns, the game would be more enjoyable / fun overall.

Nebalicious

Oct. 20, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Relating to one of my favorite games ever! 5/5

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Glad you liked the game.

Under rating threshold (show) It seems like there are quite a few spots where the bombs don't ever hit you in the second part of the fight.

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from Gama11

Like, a spot where you can without getting hit? Yeah, I think that's possible in easy mode, but since it's just easy mode and just for that stage of the game, it shouldn't be too much of a problem, I think.

Under rating threshold (show) Needs badges! ;D

Developer response from Gama11

That'd be great - but it depends all on the rating.

Oct. 20, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Positive: - You really see a difference when upgrading - Challenging difficulty - Achievements Not so positive: - Art could use some work - Different weapons and enemies would be great - Alltogether too short So after all it's a solid first game but there's still room for more. ;)

+ - !

(4)

Developer response from Gama11

Yeah, the art isn't perfect, and its kinda short. Don't worry, my next game will have both: Better art and more levels. ;)

Under rating threshold (show) Ossom game! Very challenging on hard :x

+ - !

(292)

Developer response from Gama11

Thx. Indeed, hard mode is made for bullet hell pros, although it's probably still a joke for those guys.

Gama11

Oct. 20, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) I'm happy to release my first flash game , "Grinning Cobossus" here on Kongregate! :D I'd really love to hear your opinions and feedback, so feel free to comment, please.
