Reviews for "StormWinds 1.5"

so everythings about money

u made a nice looking defense game.thats nice
u made some improvements listening to peoples minds..thats nicer
u made it ridiculously hard so people are unable to finish it without cheating..
but u must pay for cheats.. THATS LAME. thats why i give u a zero.
if you want to make money get a real job or make better games.
i thought this site was made for the sake of sharing

HeroInteractive responds:

I understand you. You're used to playing free games on sites like newgrounds, and you want it to keep this way.

I also agree... and disagree. I'm never going to make a game and make it entirely pay to play, ever. I enjoy being able to play all the free flash games out there just as much as you do- that's why StormWinds has the whole main game available all the way to the final boss. But as I said I disagree too, games cost a lot of time (and money) to make. StormWinds 1.5 took a total of 6 months working full time with no other job to produce, it's over 17,000 lines (380 pages) of code! And I want to make even better games than this in the future!

Not that I can't get money other ways such as through sponsorship. But two big issues come up. The first is, why make a huge long game like stormwinds when I could make a quick small game such as starshine and get the same amount of money. The second is this: what better games could I be making if I had a better budget? I think we'd both agree there is a big difference between low budget and high budget movies, it works the same way with games. You've seen what is possible on low budgets, what could we make with bigger ones?

In the end, the extra content is just that, extra content. If you don't want to pay to play this game, you don't have to! The game is complete, all the way to the final boss in the city campaign. Don't pretend like it's just a demo or crippleware, I've loaded the game with far more content than 99.99999999% of the other games on here. For those of you who'd like to get more content, beta test Bubble Tanks 2 when that comes out, or just support Hero Interactive and help us to provide you with bigger, awesomer games in the future, that's now available to you.

boo

way too hard

HeroInteractive responds:

Get some skillz.

ehhhhh

i really didnt like this game for the fact that you have to control each turret... i like it better when they shoot on their own, and you need a wider variety of turrets

wow

this game is lame cs its too repetitive.its the same thing over and over and over and over.grrr

WTF

I'm giving a bad score because it got to 91% loading then stoped and i have tried other games and the were fine so i don't know what to say besides MOO

HeroInteractive responds:

It loaded fine for 150,000 other people- I'm gonna go ahead and say it's pretty safe to assume it was just your Internet connection, not the game. Thanks for the 0.
