Hard to tell what was going on at first. It would have been nice to have time at the start to either read the buttons or have fewer to choose from initially. It was also hard to tell if your purchases had any affect, since each one didn't seem to contribute that much.\rI really wanted to click on the humans directly to kill them. That would have been a nice distraction for the slower early game.\rCan you win, or do the numbers just keep increasing? Can you kill the angel thing in the clouds?"},{"author_name":"Caspila","author_uid":"45038","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:55am","epoch":1440485400,"text":"I think you had a major flaw on UI. the first button on the top is the one that doesn't help you at all. I kept trying to click it but i could not beat any of the Heroes.\rAfterwards I understood that I had to spend my money on the other stuff first.\rI didn't see any difficulty progression. I couldn't get to the point shown on the screenshot. Nice job though. Pretty cool for first game!"},{"author_name":"funkysquid","author_uid":"44155","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 7:00am","epoch":1440485700,"text":"Fun!
