Reviews for "Helios: The Defender"

My Two Cents

I'd like to see this developed further. I think the following changes and additions will make it better:
- different types of balls with different behaviour and effect characteristics
- enemies with more varied attack patterns
- bigger "grab" radius for balls
- balls physical beahviour can have more impact and control - see Momentum Missile Mayhem here on Newgrounds for an example

Tedious.

The game is fun at first, but gets tedious quickly. Most complaints have already been listed. Get upgrades way too soon. And upgrades aren't that good anyway. Also didn't like the carpal tunnel game play. And balls are way too close to border of screen. Ball grabbiing could use a larger area.

Tedium: The Defender

Following the Nitrome school of mistaking challenging for tedious, I see.

This was horrid.

The balls appear but you cant drag them or shoot them. Try making a game that's somewhat playable.

There is a problem.

I don't seem to be the only one who has had this problem. I can't seem to reach the ammo to actually defend my structure. I like the concept but I can't give a higher score until I can actually play the game. This glitch makes the ammo spawn outside of the reach of the arm. Thank you for reading.
