I think I might have "broken" the game. after numerous defeat at the boss level due to my inferior reflex (to aim at that tiny window of opportunity whilst protecting the city), I "accidentally" sold my jammer and interceptor building to obtain more machine gun and rail gun. now I'm stuck in heaven/oblivion with everything charged up but no enemies in sight on "Day 4" ...
But great game! with the extra stuff you get after losses, you managed to make a difficult shooter game enjoyable for someone who serious suck at nonautonomous video games in general
Reviews for "UFO: Blackstorm shield"
It's a very good game but the boss is really hard.
I had some problems getting it to work using chrome on linux 14.04. The game stopped working right after day one. I had to use firefox to play this game.
I really like this game, I just don't know how im going to beat the boss! Boss HP is actually not the problem, its the massive amounts of small ships, and the ungodly small window to hit the boss. If you don't want to change either of those things I have a suggestion. Get rid of the stronger ships, only make it the small ships and the boss. This would still make the player feel rushed to try and kill the ships before they hit the ground and also still preserve the difficulty of the boss itself.
This was a brilliant game, and is exactly what I want when I play a free online game. It wasn't too long. It was engaging. The gameplay was fun and made me want to improve my skills all the time. Other characteristics I really liked were the cool music and art style which complemented each other very well. They increased that desolate hopeless feeling which is often executed really poorly in online games. I would be very proud of this game if I worked on the development team.
The only criticism I could make, was that the game lagged a little bit when the activity reached the maximum amount.
I like the game a lot with the strategy of both buildings and weapons.
But the description of the generator says that they can charge batteries.
Even if i put two generators next to one batteri, they don't charge it with energy.
