I'll have to checks it out. I looked at it yesterday, and it seems cool enough.

[Bird]

Very difficult and challenging game! Super job.

Thanks for playing and submitting your scores. Keep at it and you might discover some new techniques to winning.

[RMSephy]

Heh, this is actually pretty addicting once you get into it. I sort of had a hard time remembering which weapon hurts which enemy, but it's useful to realize that all the monsters start next to their respective weak weapons.

Got a 15 on simple, so far

Good work. Keep laying waste to those vile abominations.

[Meowskivich]

I've got 6 points in wroguy mode.

I've got 6 points in wroguy mode.

Going for the hard modes. Good work.

Dang this is hard, even after some time playing (honestly, I didn't discover much in the way of techniques). Posting my scores even though they're terrible to lower expectations a bit.

Willy, considering you're blowing away everyone else on most modes, I'm surprised how low your score is on Challenging. I found it easier than most modes (still lots of luck required, but most of the others do too), and that the difficulty ranking of the modes is all wrong. My best scores:

Simple: 3
Easy: 5
Medium: 7
Hard: 2
Challenging: 4
Extreme: 0

My favourite mode is Medium, because it's the slowest and most strategic. The movement in Simple is way too fast for me; I get a score of 0 about 95% of the time.

All in all, wished there was less luck involved.

[Meowskivich]

Going for the hard modes. Good work.

Honestly, the hard modes are the only ones I seem to get any enjoyment out of.

edit: also, the highest I can manage to get in Wurampyon mode is 3 (managed to get ti 3 times, I think. I'll eventually get 4, just you wait n' see....)

Out of curiosity, how would you rank the modes? Keep in mind, Challenging mode is easier to beat the stages on because there is only 1 enemy, but it's much harder to score on since you only get 1 point at a time.

All in all, wished there was less luck involved.

There is some luck involved, but there might not be as much as you think. I can get fairly consistent scores on most modes. However you criticism is certainly fair.

There are several patterns that can be used on Simple and Easy. In fact, I usually only die these modes is when I move too fast and accidentally slide or teleport into an enemy.

Medium mode is pretty strategic, but it does take some luck. However, having a good pattern can mitigate that.

Hard mode has some random elements, since the enemies are freed in a different order each time. But once you understand how it works, it mostly becomes about having good reflexes.

Some element of luck is involved in Challenging mode since the single enemy is randomly selected, but again having good reflexes is equally important.

Extreme mode is meant to be ridiculous. High amounts of luck are required, although a good understanding of Simple mode will help you some.

[Meowskivich]

I actually find extreme mode reliant on strategy and reflexes as much as luck.

[FnrrfYgmSchnish]

After a few tries with each one...

Simple: 9
Easy: 3
Medium: 3
Hard: 1
Challenging: 3
Extreme: 3

I have a hard time understanding how "you're slow, monsters aren't, and there's still three of them" is NOT the highest difficulty level.

[Meowskivich]

I find simple the hardest, personally.

[TheCube]

I cannot get a single point in any of the modes in this game. No, wait, I got 1 point in Challenging, and then I died. It's just too damned fast for my brain, apparently. Love the presentation though
