is fun, but you have to upgrade the shoot animation.

Could have been a lot better. There are no traces to see where you're shooting, and the animation of the "baddies" just looks like a floating picture. A decent start, but lots of room for improvement.

Good defender kind of game.
Good music, although strangely it stops playing at some point, but that's okay.

My only real complaint here is don't ever use the right mouse button in web-based games, period. The game can be played without using the shotgun so it's not as if it's unplayable as-is, but many people won't be able to use right-click as it's commonly bound to browser or OS functionality like right-click menus. And, no, saying "Just use Google Chrome" is not an acceptable excuse when the fix is so simple. The game works fine in Firefox but you need to bind to something other than right-click in your games.

Left-click for fire is okay, common, and understandable, but an additional keyboard binding is preferable.

How about these changes?

-- Spacebar fires, as does left-click.
-- Z and X toggle which gun you're using, whether machinegun or shotgun, default of machinegun.
-- Q, E, and C deploys sentries.

The reason for multiple bindings is because different people have different keyboard layouts, especially European users. The more options the better chance it'll work well for more people. Also the reason for a left-click keyboard binding for firing is because constantly pressing the left mouse button or holding it down is very bad on the fingers. The keyboard isn't as bad.

And again you shouldn't use right-click in web games at all, period.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Could you please tell us exactly when the music stops playing? We would like to solve this problem.

I'm sorry that you find problematic the use of the right mouse button. It works fine for me on both Chrome and Firefox, no menu shows up if the click is bounded by game's window.

Excellent game!!

Like the game but its to hard. Never managed to deploy a sentry. The soundtrack is awesome
