Very entertaining!

While there are certain elements this game does lack and there are specific parts of it which are flawed, the fact is that it's extremely entertaining game that kept me fixed on the screen for quite a while. And that's pretty much all i ask for from a flash game!

Gameplay - In agreement with madb0g, enemies being able to spawn on top of you is an annoying threat, but i must admit that it did keep me moving around more which added extra excitement to the game. The variety of different types of enemies kept each wave fresh and it felt considerably less repetitive than most wave-based shooters. As far as the controls go, you can't beat the classic WASD setup. The controls are very responsive and gave a feel of urgency. The upgrades were good and stopped at a suitable point, without letting you get a ridiculous amount of firepower at your disposal. I do agree with other reviewers that different weapons would've been a fun option, but i rather enjoyed the shotgun-type weapon, and i don't think i would've changed weapon even with the choice if i'm totally honest.

Graphics - The partical effects, simple shapes and lines were a good style of graphics to go for, especially since it's a Vector type game. Adjustable settings for the effects are a very good idea, as it allows people to play no matter how slow their computer is.

Sound - I couldn't have thought of a better main theme for this game than Chaoz Fantasy, although i am a bit of a kiss-ass fan when it comes to ParagonX9, so ignore my biasedness. As far as the other sound effects go, it's rather good. Spacey sounds for shots give a good sci-fi feel to the game.

Satisfaction - Finishing each wave is good, but finishing the game itself after killing massive hoards summoned by that end boss and then killing that big daddy himself is a very satisfying feeling. Having gotten a score of 6230 i'm just happy i'm not too far down the high-scores.

Side-Note - I hope to see a sequal to thi marvelous little game. You can never have too much fun, and there's definately plenty of that in this game!

Side-Note 2 - Allox managed to put the word "dude" twice in one sentance in his review! I expect he likes his half-pipes and grinds the odd rail here and there.

Thanks for the detailed review, watch this space for the sequel, I have a game currently in the process of being published, and another in development, once I have finished the latter I will start Neuron 2 =)

I'm Ed. I'm in the final year of my A-Level courses. All maths and sciences, not very interesting.
