    I would like a way to get rid of the ads too. But the game is great, they are awesome devs!

    There are kind of timers if you repeat a generation too many times. I'm currently having to wait about twenty minutes until my next game. Which is cool, as gamers gotta eat, but they are there...

    Actually that is just to continue - basically the time to continue increases with each death during a single generation, which is basically like a "soft life system". However, before we get slaughtered because of "timers", you can always instantly go to the next generation and keep playing to your hearts content (our rule of thumb is after you've died 2-3 times, its probably time to go to the next generation anyway as its likely getting too difficult to keep going).

    There is basically never an instance where you cannot keep playing the game if you wanted to just keep going, which is the most important part for us! Also of note is that in War Tortoise going to the next generation gives significant bonuses from the outset (unlike some clickers where the 1st couple of prestiges barely give you anything).

    Haha, didn't want to get on your case or anything, but I was so close to buying a sparrow squadron for the first time before dying and having to wait. Such is the price of grinding for one weapon, I guess.

    Have you thought about a perk to play through at x2 (or more) speed? I can imagine, even after gaining all those damage multipliers, there'll come a time when I'll pray for one.

    Loving the game, by the way!
     
  6. Cool,and not let the developers make money on the game?

    and thats what IAP can be used for. To support the developer lets have a IAP to remove the adverts.

    Do want to note there is just one ad at boot-up (or when you come back to the game after minimizing it)... nothing in the middle of the game or anything like that. Honestly we didn't anticipate it being any kind of issue, so we'll definitely talk about adding in something to eliminate ads. Right now a $.99 purchase wouldn't be worth it to eliminate the ads being that there are so few, so we'll have to think of some other perks to go along with it if we go that route.

    Glad you're enjoying it! Yeah we had to have a penalty for dying in a game like this that revolves around progression, otherwise you would do just that - save up for the best units immediately with no repercussions :p Really its just a way to softly push you into going to the Next Generation bc its such an integral part of the game. Their primary purpose is actually not to get players to pay money - I hope that comes through.

    We actually have thought of some kind of "fast forward"; what we settled on for now is what we have in the store: for 1 token you can permanently start one level later after each next generation, which is kind of like a speed-up (so for example if get that perk x5, you'll always start on level 6 after every next generation). You also start with whatever money you would've earned by playing those levels as well, so you're not missing out on any cash.

    GC achievements (yes, I'm an achievement junkie) would be my main request.


    Other than that I actually can't fault it so far.


    Superb.

    Glad to hear that latter part. I didn't buy that perk to begin with because I worried I'd be wasting that first level's money.

    I've decided to heavily invest in mines next generation. That way I can play a whack-a-mole mini-game while my turret's on autopilot.

    OK, but it's your loss, really. Unlike Hungry Shark, etc, I have only clicked maybe three interstitial ads, tops.

    Just to make a note, there is only one ad at the very start only... no ads of any kind pop up in game or during the game.

    I want to hear your opinion

    I'm thinking of coin doubler or damage up
