There's no ammo depletion, so after you get a new weapon there's no reason to go back to the old one. Because the player isn't affected by blast damage, the dominant strategy is to go into a corner and fire your grenade launcher \/ rocket launcher below you. I've easily reached Wave 8 doing only that."},{"author_name":"TomCooper3D","author_uid":"26982","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 7:02am","epoch":1398668220,"text":"just dumpin the lead into the air feels really good"},{"author_name":"Custard Games","author_uid":"9841","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 7:36am","epoch":1398670260,"text":"Haha! Awesome game! Really great. Only complaint is that enemies and bullets are too small. It was a bit hard to aim. I guess the character art didn't match the surrounding too. Other than that, the camera effects like the zoom and screen shake were great."},{"author_name":"TheDreik","author_uid":"11876","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 7:55am","epoch":1398671400,"text":"This game very fun with this weapons variation.
