Too hard

simply too hard

18,000 score, and the other side stopped shooting.

8/10 because I was doing so good then suddenly the game freezes up on the other side's turn. I was at a score of 18,000, kinda disappointing.

2 stars for effort.

Seriusly. The rocket doesnt always go to the same place even if you dont change your aim at all.
It feels too "sensitive" too. It just flys all over the place.
And your target is waaaaaay to far (with all the other problems i listed.)
This fails hard.

Too frustrating

The concept is okay, the implementation isn't. It's incredibly hard to judge and aim, especially considering you can't see your rocket most of the time after you shoot it (which is important so you can adjust your shot correctly afterwards). Also, the whole wind thing (the arrow in the upper right hand corner) wasn't explained at all, so I couldn't figure out for the longest time why the same shot kept hitting different parts of the house. In effect the whole thing was pretty random. And since the computer's aiming was equally bad, even the first match lasted like ten minutes and considering after a few levels there's two enemies and assuming that soon after that there's three, people will probably have to be playing for hours just to get on the in-game highscore list.

Next, the special rockets were...pretty ridiculously priced, to say the least. You get about $250 per level, and the cheapest special rocket was $300. I managed to buy one after two levels, used it, missed completely, and then was out $300 for nothing (and was back to using the normal rockets again). With such unreliable aiming, the special rockets need to be much cheaper so players can buy a bunch of them after each level so if two or three of them miss, it's not such a big, frustrating waste of money.

Lastly, one death and you're kicked back to the first level? No thanks.

A decent game

This is an ok game but I found it was real hard to hit your oppenet and also I find it a bit unfair that your opponent gets to have all 3 of the fireworks available right away while you only get the one. Also as others have said it would of been better if the fireworks exploded on contact instead of bouncing off screen and exploding
