The meteor gatling weapon is 9000 DPS at LVL 25 while the plasma bomb at lvl 25 is only 3850 DPS. But the plasma bomb for some weird reason is A LOT stronger than the meteor gatling! Just try one of the last levels and you will notice the difference immediately! Is it a bug? It looks like it!

DPS is inaccurate and like many many have said, you CANNOT get 3 stars on the last levels. Unless you KEEP GETTING BOMBS. Because even with the best weapons and planes, you will either miss some (They fly by you or you have to dodge to not die, letting them go), or there will be a clusterf* of bullets on screen and you will die regardless.
I have 3 plasmas and when on the last level-hard the blue planes come down in a line, I can never get all of them before I'm FORCED to dodge their fire ...not only that, 2 more blue ones come in on the right, pretty much FORCING you to use your bomb :-\.
Don't be a dick, dev. Don't say "It's possible" when it really, clearly, obviously isn't.

Is the last plane (Triplane) supposed to be sold for 6,300? Seems like it was supposed to be 63,000 instead, if the previous unit's price is anything to go by.

There is a typo in the description of the game ... I am pretty sure than "and" is not supposed to look like "aqnd", besides that great game 5/5 :D
(I just wanted the game to look perfect, that is why I posted this.)

Like the artwork and overall gameplay. It's well made, but the weapons could need some balancing. There's almost no reason at all to get anything but the Plasma Bombs, and for aircraft it's pretty much a forced choice as well to get the Triplane. After that, money is useless and there's no variation at all. Really wish there was more endgame upgrades, and in the beginning a bit less grinding. I have understood afterwards that "grinding" on the frenetic is a faster way than normal but well, I still don't like the grinding for money in the beginning. Tips for new players: Get 3 slot aircraft fast, and get almost any other weapon than machine guns, and 2xmoney printers. After that and advancing a few levels you will get around 5k+, even 20k+ at lvl 10+, per run you do, even if you fail some. Only level 20 made me have to repeat for progress, even if I had full meteor and later plasma bomb. Meteor is much weaker than it looks on numbers.

I was wrong...enemies have way more health/firepower now. Even with the triplane..with 999 armor, it only takes 2 or 3 hits to die. And with the best 3 weapons fully upgraded you can still hardly kill anything..but you can barley dodge everything just to survive. If there's a 4th game the enemies health and damage SERIOUSLY needs to be lowered. It's insane.

That moment when you use your bomb for 1 enemy who's about to leave the screen then get flooded with the next wave of enemies and heaps leave the screen

I loved all your games, from the first "Notebook Wars" to this one. They all have been fabulous. Your graphics are exceptional and love the game play. I know it;s not the same, but this game reminds me of when I used to play war on notebook paper. 5/5 Great job. Thank you.

The 2nd upload of the same game, with some upgrades, but still it's not that big of an improvement.. I played it just because I love the graphics, but seems you should do about twice as much testing as of now. Too much bugs, typos, and more... Anyway, Lvl 7's enemy dislay is still incorrect, and game should get less planes, and more, and much more expensive upgrades. Now fully upgraded, all planes, and still doesn't even get max on the last two lvl. Not like I need the urge to do them, I get nothing for the time compared to make these things.
I really hope NW4 will have less planes, and more variety in the gameplay.

Hard to control on tiny movements, looks like I'm losing focus when moving in tight spaces, 5 attempts and I've still not completed the first level. Going to play something else.

after upgrading my machine gun 15 times it displays that it does 62 damage which it doesn't
also the triumph, northrop and the triplane are too low priced

the last few levels are impossible to get 3/3 stars even with the best ship MAX lvl 25 best weapon all 3x with +25% dmg addons x2 it takes WAY too many shots to kill a tiny enemy plane when there is 10 on the screen, and if you get hit once it does almost half your life with 50 bullets on the screen at once, dodging the enemy bullets isnt the issue its that they take WAY too much dmg to kill

Maybe in order to beat the last levels on Hard you should be able to buy an addon that gives you a permanent turbo shot. Available at 170 Stars or so and let it cost 500k, doesn't matter. BTW two of the same addons do stack.

Hello there game, I choose you as been a BoTD, this week. Followed by, this game -> http://www.kongregate.com/games/nicotuason/desert-moon

As with all of these games, it just thrusts you into the shooting. And that is great! Sometimes there is no point being bogged down by a story. But it does make me wonder WHY we are fighting. Why my little plane has to face TONS of foes alone. So far, I've been going with the notion that these other lands have discovered the ability to turn their women into catgirls, and won't share with me because I'm a geek.... it really gives me incentive.

When I finish level 7, it says I killed 92/92 with three stars. But if I go back to that level, it says 92/93. Small bug or is there an in-level kill that I keep missing?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I like the fact that you can play levels on an higher difficulty and get more stars by destroying more enemies. Nice improvements from your 2 earlier games.

Great game! Maybe it's been said already, but it seems like this game really needs a "lost focus" feature. It's really frustrating when my plane stops moving and gets pummeled while I figure out what happened to my cursor.

Last levels impossible to get 3 stars with current fire power - perhaps if played 100's of times and luck enough to get extra bomb drops... but no thanks too boring to replay same levels over and over for chance... How about you either make high level weapons do more damage or add extra bomb slots.

TIP: You can crash an armored plane to kill high HP enemies and quickly grind cash for upgrades.
Also, does Frenetic mode count for the hard achievement?

Hi,
awesome game, really funny!
I think there is an error in the level 7. The number of enemies is 92, and at the end of level is 92/92, but on the map is 92/93...I missed something?
Thank you for the game, I hope you'll make the 4th! :)

The game has rapidly increasing enemies' stats, as well as their money drop and stats of weapons and ships you can buy with this money. This means you and enemies are in arms race if you don't specifically grind earlier stages. It is ok, until at latest stages you realize you are getting tons of money but already got the best stuff in the shop - and enemies are inadequately strong for that best stuff. Perhaps adding some kind of elite shop that opens once you beat final boss (with any star rating) would help. After my hundred attempts to merely survive stage 20 (3 starts are impossible there without finding at least 3-4 extra bombs and firepower bonuses) I have million and half, I would gladly spend it onto super aircraft, or super damage module (- magnet, - money drop, +++firepower), or perks like "start with 2 bombs", or even one-use bonuses "for 30K money you have +50% attack this attemp"

The hitbox is just too large to dodge effectively, the key to good bullet hell game is to allow the player to weave in between the bullets. The weapons are too weak in later levels to help either, and there's no moment of invincibility when you get hit to help out either. These combined make it almost impossible to beat.

Good game. Here are some tips on how to get the badges.
1. Dont spend to much money on low lvl weapons and don't care about the dps. The dps is misleading.
2. Get a cheap ship with 3 guns, eg the on to 4300 gold.
3. Save money by playing the highest lvl you find easy on frentic mode.
4. Get the homing missiles.
5. Grind until you can buy the best ship and fully upgrade the homing missiles.
6. Kill the last boss easy.
This is not a recipe for getting all stars but for getting all the badges.
Good luck.

I bought the biggest ship, upgraded the biggest weapon and installed 2 damage amplifier and it's still impossible to kill enough enemies in the later levels.

when you get to the point where completing a new level or a recent level on normal nets u 2000- 3500 bucks invest in fragmentation bombs

Please increase the rate of cash gain early on. The game seems solid enough, but grinding really should be kept to a minimum.

The last few levels are EXTREME; I have plasma bombs that do 4,375 damage, WAY more than the triplane's health itself, either the INSANE health of the last ships have to be lowered, or we need better planes...
I bet you can do it' after all, you just made the most extreme version of Notebook Wars! Peace ;3

an over kill bullet should turn into a pierceing bullet and carry damage to the next ship in sight and should you still be a over kill do the same thing and so forth

There should def be an impossible badge for getting all the stars since beating the game on normal is considered hard.

Is it just me, or is the laser absolutely worthless? It's supposed to do more damage than the sonic gun (both at lvl 25) but it can barely kill anything...
