Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

+: Unique style of 1 on 1 gameplay.
+: Intense 2-Player battle.
+: 5 levels of challenging enemies (1 Player).
+: 2 playable ships (Each with a different style of control and 3 unique combinations of weapons).
+: Decent graphics.
+: Decent choice of music.

-: No sfx.
-: Button mashing in 2-player mode can cause glitching.
-: Simple AI system.
-: Complex gameplay.
-: Slightly unbalanced weapons.
-: Might not run at the desired framerate (For people with old computers... like me...).

Also, here is some more info on the enemies:
Level 3: (HEAL) This ship has the ability to heal both shield AND armor. This will occur whenever GREEN rings pulse out of the ship.
(STEALTH) This ship also has the ability to double its speed. This will occur whenever WHITE rings pulse out of the ship.
Level 4: (FLASH) This ship will sometimes release a blinding light that momentarily turns the entire screen white.
(HEAL) This ship can also heal. However, it is at a much faster rate.
Level 5: (FREEZE) Whenever this ship turns the entire screen blue you will be unable to fire any projectiles. (that is the shock ray and smart bomb won't fire even though they are already charged)
Also, if you're wondering how to damage the level 5 ship... that's for you to figure out :).

"The worst game on newgrounds"

by: Dave-Go

date: March 27, 2006

This has to be the most terrible game I've ever played. The campain's so easy. The CPU just follows you wherever you go, no dodging or anything. The models suck. It's like a wraith from starcraft versus a... circle. It can't even handle 2 player mode because of exessive button mashing. Worst game. Ever.

LOL DAVE
How did I know you were gonna write something like this...
Well whatever, these posts are here forever so I can't really do anything.
To anyone who reads this Dave goes to my school and he knows every possible thing wrong with this game because I told him lol. But I know you're just joking Dave. Thanks for the 10 :).
