Its pretty good...Its just a bit too easy and I'm not keen on games that require several minutes play each time before it starts challenging you. Shame there's not a difficulty setting.

Man, I'm trying to revisit Assassin's Creed 2 to get some decent play time out of it before Red Dead Redemption hits, and now you show me that...

Downloading. :D

I'd probably be doing a bit better than my first game over 1,000,000 points if I could just remember to use the damn shield now and then. :lol:

Seriously, though- amazing game. The more I play the better I like it.

So it's an extra life every million? Personally it's all about staying on the bottom and watching the bullets and using the shield to avoid being herded to the corners when they first fly in - nice risk mechanic with the shield powder ups and well done for just dropping your power up by one if you get hit rather than an outright kill.

I would dearly love to be, but my net connection is useless for online shenanigans until we get the landline installed. A few peeps were discussing it in the Modern Warfare 2 thread, or perhaps the Thursday social one. I'm too lazy to look.

Just ever so slightly topped that with 2.17 million to get 50th place on the global table (or "last", as it's also known). And then I spot you're now nearing 3 million up in 30-somethingth... Ah well, must play some more, I guess. Top little game this. :)

Aye its a corker and the way they throw in the fact that you're always safe at the bottom when the waves fly in from them colliding with you and then very occasionally you're not :) The shield mechanic works a dream. Anyone spot how you get the killed enemies to drop shield or weapon upgrades ?

My 'latest' shooter Doppelganger has just landed on Indie Games :-) (finally dusted off the old code and gave it a lick of paint)

(Defender meets Iridis Alpha sort of).
