What did you change for absurd mode? I noticed the comp was a little better at mounting a quick defense, but other than that it felt fairly similar to hard. Any AI upgrades are great. I like the timed HS improvement.
You are right, absurd mode is currently not that absurd if you understood how the AI is working. I will test some other AI settings to make the mode a little less predictable.

On my old monitor both blue team colors look almost exactly the same. Makes it hard to distinguish them. Maybe could go with 4 colors instead of just two?

Playing on easy and finding it soooo difficult to win. Each level is a struggle, why have so many difficulty settings and still have easy be hard?

This game is so pathetic. An ugly, unpolished version of past winners. 4 difficulty settings, yet I have to repeatedly play the same levels over and over just to win. Big FAIL on this game. Huge failure.

I love all the new updates! However, I have just finished level 30 again (by loading a completed game) and have had no luck submitting a high score.

Are the power scales tipped against the user? I am having trouble defeating my opponents even when they have non-upgraded nodes vs my +2 or +3 upgraded nodes.

even if a harder difficulty is made, there is still the issue of playing the same maps over again, maybe if u made a custom game mode which allowed people to make their own scenarios and post them for everyone to try and rate, it could help improve customization. Another idea would be to have tag teams.

My first run with this game didn't get saved. I started over and now it's saving correctly. Using FF btw. Loving this game.

I think the issue players are having with level 2 is the tutorial. Sometimes you can't advance past certain tutorial dialogues unless you hit the 'skip tutorial' button. That button isn't very obvious, so it's easy to see how people would miss it.
Other recommendation is to consider a level beaten when all AI opponents are defeated, instead of needing to conquer all the blank components on the board. Having to play that kind of moping-up action isn't particularly exciting.

@Xoz444 Wait till you get to level 26 on hard. It's like trying to open a can with a pair of scissors. Just when you think you've got something going, boom, you're screwed.

I friggin love this game though.

Once the odds started getting more and more out of my favor, I gave up... level 23 was tough O.o I just couldnt move fast enough

Short update on the update :). I have to rework the savegame to support more difficulty levels. Will take the whole weekend. So update will take till sunday. Hope you got some patience. Update will include an easy mode, reduced difficulty levels, and absurd (very hard) mode, adjusting of the colors (for colorblinds) and some smaller bug fixes.

That last level took me a while, then I think "I might as well submit my time." Lowest time! Rank one (but only out of 6)! This was a fun game, and I look forward to another.

I finished at least a dozen levels yesterday. But the continue option is greyed out. Where did my progress go? No i have not wiped anything from my browser.

Well done for creating the most frustrating game in the world. It feels like a loss/loss situation on level 28. You have to go at bat shit speed. I mean, I had one completely covered as it has only a few nodes left. Then out of nowhere, there's a complete shitstorm and I'm overrun by the opponent and seem to have absolutely no way of winning, as every move I take seems to result in two of my nodes being taken. -_-
As already said, I am sorry about the difficulty level. It will be fixed in the next version. I am currently working on an update. Please be a little more patient. Thanks :)

A big problem with these types of games is that the computers will turn against the player first, and then fight it out, making it a 1v3 situation. The player can almost never win.

Can´t beat Lvl 12. Also i don´t really know how to use the different nodes best.
Please add in the tutorials how you support each node at best etc.
I think the difficulty changes too fast from very easy to very difficult

Colorblind option would be great. Can't tell the difference between blue/purple and yellow/green at all. Makes it exceedingly difficult when fighting purple as I don't know which nodes are mine and which aren't.

Quite fun, although tentacle wars is better, this is looking promising, looking forward to future sequels. One thing that I found is annoying is that it is very difficult to cut connections when everything is tightly packed...

Seems it is because I was too quick for the tutorial and started capturing one of the other nodes before it could start. Might want to look into this.

Seem to have run into a bug. On the second tutorial level when it tells me to upgrade my node, I did so but it doesn't continue and won't let me click the right arrow or anything, even after I'd upgraded it to level 3.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Since you want advice, here's some to lessen the annoyances: 1) get rid of (or allow us to skip) the deployment of each level. 2) allow for skip tutorial to skip ALL the tutorials and not make us click it off each level.

Easily the best node defense game I've played ... much more strategy and thought put into it. The only thing it would be nice to see is an instructions screen that more clearly explains the differences between the nodes and the benefits/cost of upgrading each type.
