Awsome

I really liked this game. The only problem was that it was insanely easy. I made it through the whole game with the first ship. Also i figured out how you can pretty much instantly get to the final boss. All you have to do is fly around in circles until a large amount of enemies get concentrated in the middle of the screen and then turn and fly right into them guns blazing but if there are too many enemies the computer lags like crazy. The coolest part of this little trick is that it creates a huge shockwave if you have the second to last ship which shoots its pixels in all directions. Try it but be careful not to concentrate to many enemies in the pile or your computer might freeze up.

Zero!

Why? For starters, because you have to pay to get items that would make the game insanely easy instead of earning them. Second, because you expect people to pay to get the best out of a game that has mediocre graphics(Repetitive enemies and attack animations) and Zombie AI (They follow in a straight line stacking on top of one another). In most cases these problems would be forgivable, but because your putting a price tag on it my expectations are pretty high. To be completely honest its like putting a price tag on a pile of dog shit on my lawn and expecting somebody to buy it. Yes, i understand its a beta version but, the price tags should be on the final product not on this. This game would have been more popular if it came without the prices and overall it would have been a better advertisement decision. So, the payment system is very relevant.

Great music

I wish i could say the same for the gameplay. The games animations could have been better and the game play is bad because the controls are a little frustrating and the level designs just look like you through a bucket of blocks on a dirty piece of paper. But the game did have its good points such as its realistic use of physics(momentum, friction, etc.) The only things that needs to be revamped are the animations and the level designs and the game could be great.

Kwing responds:

You can complain to Faz about the graphics... Those were his. The level designs were simple because I really couldn't grind out much with Faz... He's really lazy. In fact, the "Arr Pea Gee" we're working on right now has been going on for months and we're barely at the second battle out of, like, 25. So yeah, the flaws were out of laziness and poor communication. Sorry.

Beat every level woot!!!

This was a very challenging game but the advertisements popping up all the time got really annoying. The physics in the game were good. I liked how not only did the second difficulty get a little harder but also the theme changed to dark and creepy. This game is basically a spin off of others out there but it had a lot of originality none the less. Good job and keep up the good work.

[The Savior (battle)]

glitchy

The game was very good although it was much like castle crashing "the beard." But it had a few glitches worth noting such as the fact that the sword upgrading system is a pain. Sometimes when i pick up a gem it will be recognized as another type of gem in the level up menu. This got very frustrating and what really got on my nerves was when i got all the gems i needed to get the second upgrade and i couldn't upgrade the sword. This was especially annoying because it took forever to actually get those last two gems to get the upgrade in the first place. At first I thought these issues were because of my computer or something like that but they kept rearing their ugly heads every time i restarted.
If there is some other reason for why I couldnt upgrade to the third sword then you should have given some explanation.

Aggrivating

The game was pretty fun and addicting until the zombie lvl that is. I don't know what the games issue was but sometimes id shoot one of the zombies and the gun would shoot but the zombie wouldn't die. I saw this problem especially when i tried to shoot the skulls. Id put me cross hare right on the skull and fire but it wouldn't destroy the damn skull. I tried that lvl again and again and the same thing happened every time. It was very aggrivating so i just gave up. If i cant even get 20000 because of this glitch there was no way i was getting 30000. All in all this was a very simple game with decent graphics and good gameplay although repetitive and deserves a 7/10. If you have any hints as to how you can get past that zombie lvl please tell me because I'm very curious about what is going to happen to that guy when he snaps out of it.

Psycosis91 responds:

Ah yeah the zombies, yeah zombies can only be shot in the head, so shoot them in the head to kill them. Shooting them in the body only makes them jitter slightly, hope that helps!

[Pandemic II]

Very addictive... but,

this game is near impossible to win. You really have very little control in this game. You cant choose where to start, what abilities to start with and probably one of the most annoying parts is that sometimes when you go up a tier in the symptoms upgrade some symptoms are already activated which can completely destroy your strategy and makes you have to use your precious evolution points which are already very few. There is no way to increase the amount of evolution points you can get either. It caps out at about 80 or 90 bacause at that point it is rising so slowly that any extra singles you might get are useless. Overall the concept is good and again, this game is very addictive. I played it at least 30 or 40 time in the past few days to burn some time but in that time i couldnt win this game once :( . There is almost always at least one place left usualy Madagasgar which only has a shipping area and only gets like 1 ship before it closes the docks to keep from being infected. Also i found it very wierd when the only symptom of the disease id have would be sneezing or coughing and countries start closing up and burning dead bodies (oh nos the whole worlds got a case of the sniffles). Seriously a little realisum would be nice. I can tell you worked really hard on this though and i have to give you a good score for that and i hope if you make another sequal that you work out all the kinks.

[Ninja Hunter]

Good

Everything about this game was very good but there was one part of it that bugged the crap out of me. When the shuriken throwing ninjas gang up on you. If you get hit by one of them and you dont get up fast enough then you get pinned and their numbers keep getting larger during this until you cant even get up long enough to attack. That combined with the flashbang made me want to tear my hair out. Other than that this game is good, but i think you need to get rid of the shuriken guys in the sequel. If not you should either put the button you need to press to get up in an easier to reach spot or make it so that he gets up himself or there is the ever popular 'oh shit' button (a button that will get you out of a tough situation like a bomb or something that will kill a group of enemies). This was only a small issue and im not discouraging you im just giving you some advice.

[Strategy Defense 3]

boooring

All i can say is that the game was too easy and just really boring. Also WALTERWAGNER (below) stop waisting time and space and make a real review. Also, this game is made up of some of the most simple ideas out there. I've seen in just about a million other defence games. So what if you can send things to attack the enemie from land, water, and air theres nothing special about any of them other than there attacking on one of the obviously placed lanes on the battle field. I've only got one thing to say about this game. IT IS CRAP. Maybe im being mean but its true ITS CRAP. But i'll admit that you have potential. Play around a little and try again and i bet you can make something better.

[Squidgy]

Boring and repetitive but it has one good point.

This game was way to repetitive its just the same thing for about ten minutes and the music is just as repetitive and by the end i just wish it would stop. The major bummer from this game is that it was just to stupid easy. The game was far to easy to win and the enemies didnt change much througout the whole thing adding to the repetitiveness. But although the game lacked gameplay i have to say that it looked very good but not good enough to get you any more that a six. If you ever make a game that looks this good and has better gameplay let me know because ill gladly play it.
