[Bubble Tanks]

Hmmm... :)

Very nice and a bit refreshing game.

Things needed for improving the game:
Upgrades for the tank ended too quickly. It would be nice if the tank would have even more levels of upgrades.

However, weapon upgrades should be adjusted accordingly. For an instance: In some circumstances, double-fire rate gun or triple gun is better than that big gun (especially against basic shooters). Big gun is a bit too unbalanced, except maybe for that biggest enemy. I think that the final weapon would be a combination of rate-fire, spread fire while the big projectile is launchd for every 5th or so click.

Bubbles should be also a bit bigger.

A little HUD would be nice which would include.
1. A minimap-like thing (showing enemy locations inside a bubble) and something that indicates your current position on the map.
2. A scoreboard.
3. Something that shows how much bubbles do you need until the next weapon upgrade.

P.S. How many different kinds of enemies are in the game in total? I counted over 8.

HeroInteractive responds:

About 14 different enemies.

[Onslaught!]

Whoa!! So much fun!

Nice style, graphics and sound. I tried 'true onslaught' magic and died in third level. This game is very balanced altough some magics are a bit too strong.

I like the idea that you can defend the castle with second player.

Some suggestions:
1) Bomber would get bonus points by killing many enemies with one bomb and maybe the bomber would have a special attack, too.
2) I hope that in next version, even third player could join to defend the castle (more players, more fun).
3) Make it so that you could earn more magic with survival mode by beating certain time limits.

And keep up the good work!

Weaksauce responds:

Michael: Third level with "True Onslaught" is quite impressive. Your suggestions are very good, but the 2nd one would just not be practical. The way that the game runs now is very taxing on the computer, and adding a third player, although fun, would most likely make the game play suffer greatly. Good idea, but we would need to have a much simpler game to do it. And how many people can you crowd around a keyboard anyway? Thanks for your review.

[Save The Blobs (Level 6)]

Great!

But I have some questions:
1.If you exit in room 3A and press right arrow key many times then you dissapear, why?
2.Can you make a story
3.Is this level the last one?

But great job.

whatafunnygeezer responds:

1. Sorry, that was a bug, but its fixed now.
2. I think its more fun without a story
3. No this level isn't the last one, but i'm not telling you what the next one will be yet. I have a great idea for it though.
