Reviews for "NightStrike"
rather addictive
nice work, keep it coming.
Pretty Good
Yeah good game, was pretty fun but i wish it changed a little after awhile. But good game dude i hope to see more in the future!
Wow, I'm speechless...perfection.
Its an extremely rare occurance when I have no advice for improvment to offer on a flash submission, I'm utterly blown away. This isn't just a swift kick in the balls to every other defense game on Newgrounds it's the most fun, addictive and all around entertaining game on this website. Not since Ronin: Spirit of the Sword have I been so entranced by a web-game that I could hardly pull myself away to write a review.
First off, great work as always on the graphics by Mind Chamber. All the enemies, from the lowliest soldier to the biggest bosses are dripping with style and detail, its almost a pity that I have to destroy so many of these beautiful creations. The backrounds are all top notch as well, they all do a perfect job setting the tone of going through one war torn area after another.
Now for the gameplay, there are so many elements of strategy added to the game that excell it way beyond every other defense game. While most games are content to leave any strategic planning at the upgrade panel, strategy simply oozes through every aspect of the gameplay. Which upgrade is the best, should I attack every enemy on the screen or let more on to potentially get a higher combo while opening up the possibility of getting swamped by enemies, should I defend to the left and attack to the right or should I shield against the incoming bombers? And finally just when the gameplay starts to get boring you're faced with a gigantic boss (a much appreciated addition) that will test all the skills you've been honing.
Two more things I'd like to praise, first, the combo system, what seems almost arbitrary at first is actually a nuanced system that rewards smart players with huge bonuses. Secondly, the physics based, weather infused, Scorched Earth style attack system, I could go on for quite some time talking about how much this adds to the game when you evolve the simple point, click then watch enemy die gameplay that I've seen in almost every defense game, but if you'll excuse me, I've got a game to play.

glad you enjoyed it
Great Game
A little similar to beachfront, and a very good game. It is quite addictive, but pretty easy. I enjoyed it because of the upgrades. They seemed to pump a little bit of want and a goal into the game.
5/5
