"good,but lacking"

date: May 30, 2009

you had the right idea for a great game like this where you shot things to buy upgrades but you sadly failed at making that idea a reality.first off make more weapons.second make health things appear after defeated enemys and make them restore more health.lastly good job,but make more varietys of what you can do.other than that pretty good.

"Very good"

date: February 15, 2009

A few suggestions:
as has been said before, a more conventional money system
have the player gain momentum as it moves
harder and shorter opening levels; it starts off boring

great job!

"A few things..."

date: September 1, 2008

I did like it. But I have a few suggestions.

1) No extra lives? Serioulsy, getting killed JUST ONCE and having to start all over is the most annoying thing about the game. Especially since I was unable to get to the third boss without dying.

2) The sound. When you click the "Sound off" button. It turns off the music. But it doesn't turn off the sound of gun fire and the noise the game makes when you pick up money. It would of been nice to turn off the music AND sound.

3) Speaking of money. It felt more random then deserved when you got it. It would of been nice if the money fell off your enemys when you killed them. Instead of money just popping up at random places. Which, by the way, when the money pops up in random places. It sometimes pops up in areas where you can hardly see it. Sometimes, it'll pop under the two giant blocks in the middle of the floor.

4) There needs to be heath that pops up in game play. Around wave 12, the amount of enemys that come at you is almost insane.

5) Even though the game is almost impossible. I still found it addictive. I'm going to try to beat this game.

sound: 8/10( in line with gunfire)
graphics: 7/10(good for a beginner)
fun to play: 9.2/10( i liked it!)

"great game!"

date: September 1, 2008

i loved it. but there is always room for improvement. i suggest more rooms to play in, bigger rooms also. more mechs to choose from, maybe special abilities. of course new weapons and enemies. that would make the next game awsome! other than that this game was real fun
9/10; 4/5

"Mechanized brutality!"

date: September 1, 2008

This game is pretty fun so long as you don't pay too much attention to what you're doing. Kind of like grinding in World of Warcraft! In all seriousness, though, it is fun to dodge stuff and enemies die well. The guns are pretty cool, though I'd like it more if you had a single sniper rifle because it gets a little kooky when you alternate fire between two weapons while constantly moving around. Still, that's not a big complaint, and it is pretty cool to wield two sniper rifles...
Mmm, I thought it was weird that you can switch back to your old weapons because each weapon is a large upgrade, but that's not a complaint either. I haven't read other reviews so as not to taint my own perception of the game, but I can guess my suggestions are the same as other reviewers': I think there should be more than one level, perhaps a shift in scenery after every boss or something less traditional, if you feel so inclined. Also, I think it'd be cool to be able to add a few upgrades to your weapons: it might increase the depth a little and give you something to spend your excess cash on, though it also might convolute things, and nobody wants that.
I lied a little: I did read one review. I don't think it's bad that you have to pick up money, though it does seem a little weird that the money appears in random places instead of being dropped by enemies (though a giant robot dropping two dollars in cash would be even weirder). I do think you should get some sort of bonus for defeating a boss, but the game doesn't lose much because of it.
All in all, this was fun for me, but it was shallow. Unfortunately, I accidentally clicked the "back" button on my mouse as I was about to buy the shotgun. What a stupid place for such a button...I'm going to go check out your other submissions, now~

Author's Response:

I don't see what the problem is with allowing the user to switch back to an older weapon if he/she prefers to use it over a newer weapon.

Many of your suggestions have been suggested before, and I plan to fix them all in the sequel.

The shotgun is a really great weapon I wish you could have tried using it, and I'm glad you enjoyed the game. This is my first big game, all my other submissions are quick thing I did when I was taking a break from a bigger project.

"what the hell!?"

date: September 1, 2008

the second boss i encountered killed me with one hit of it's laser. I faced the boss with FULL HEALTH! A continue feature would be much appreciated
(reset score with each continue ;D)

Author's Response:

Yea, I overpowered the second boss a little. In the sequel the waves will be broken up into levels so you will be allowed to save.

"lots of pros and cons"

date: September 1, 2008

What i like: i like the controls, they are easy for me to pick up and i like the differant weopons they are fun and simple.

What i dont like: I dont like that you actually have to run around picking up money, you should get money from simply killing things, bigger things giving you more money of course, the reason i say this is becuase you throw these bosses at us and we get nothing for killing them exept being able to move on.. we dont even make enough money to repair ourselves after taking a massive beating from the bosses. Speaking of repairs, i cant afford anything else becuase i pay 50$ to repair myself for essentially 1 bullets worth of damage, and even if you can run around grabbing all the freekn money on the board which you get hit more trying to do, you still only make like 200$ a wave... Thats the main thing that needs to get fixed is the money system.. you need to abtain cash upon a kill rather than running around like an idiot collecting it, and that personally kills this game for me.

Author's Response:

Yea, I plan to change how money works in the sequel, thanks for the review though!
