Pixel Purge Pixels are awesome.
It's amazing to see another game derived entirely in pixel form that is mixed with our today's graphics ; sounds ; dynamics. I really enjoy pixels, I have a keen soft spot for them. I was even a pixel artist back in 2008 for awhile til I discovered my talent for music. My thumbnail picture is one of my pixel art works, which is particularly abstract :P
WhosCoffin, I think I am on to something. I got a 900 combo (Because they didn't want to drop a damn shield. Oh, not only that. Soon as I get hit, the monster drops a shield -.-) Pretty much.. You pick ont he small guys as much as you can at level 1, then when you reach level two start building on your offense side. Meaning at level 4 you should be able to get rapid fire, and spread fire at level 3. Just stay on the bottom left ; right corners and shoot away at the monsters, dodging the the bigger ones, aswell as picking up as little pixels as you can. If you reach level 6, (Which is when the trouble makers start appearing) do your best, and soon as you get hit. Restart the game and try it all over again. It's all based on luck when you get to level 10+, because of those monsters that enjoy it when they explode in your face. Also, if you haven't realized already. If you get hit whilst in shield status, your combo WON'T dissappear. So don't give up. Keep going until they hit you when you aren't in a shield (Particularly those grunts will be the pests) Like I said. I got a 900 combo, and nearly got it, but a grunt hit me -.- It's definately possible at level 1-6, you just have to be efficient with your spacing, shooting, luck, and what upgrades you choose to use. (Offense is the best, since all you are trying to do is rake up kills on the puny monsters) Hope this helps you, and anyone else who is struggling that is reading this. ^^
Now, for the game? It's absolutely astounding. I enjoyed this to no end, and will continue playing it even when I acquire all the trophies. I will play this game to ease my mind after composing one of my compositions. I still need to try out K.O.L.M though. Lol. Please, make more pixel like games. This was really great. Are you looking forward to updating this game? I couldn't help but notice it said Version 1.1.5. I also have to say as a side note regarding the author of this game. Your game Tower of Greed was awesome too. ^^
Make more of this wonderful pixel worlds. They are to die for. 5/5 10/10.
