The music was great and i even launched the game once again just to listen to it more carefully ...\rI did not really understood the difficulty, but slaying people at this rythm is great, and their is a great amount of different sprites\/people to slay.

Will you accidentally allow the child molester to become part of the angel army? Will you spend the entire game murdering HIV babies for no good reason?\r\n\r\nWatch the timer or it's game over.\r\n\r\nGaining angels requires letting good people live and not just clicking people to explode them.\r\n\r\n\r\nPOINTS:\r\n\r\nAngel points - These are awarded for GOOD people ascending and are the highest value\r\nCannon points - Second highest value, for bad people reaped.\r\nAIDS babies will deduct 50 points per kill.\r\n\r\nSIMPLE MODE:\r\n\r\nKill whatever you want, you won't achieve the highest possible score however.\r\n\r\n'REAL' MODE:\r\nOnly ascend GOOD people. Traits are weighted and points are calculated from the sum of all of a person's traits. Each bad angel ascended takes its equivalent points away from the army. Angels are worth a much larger amount of points.\r\n\r\nTotal angels on the scoreboard is the total number of ascensions, not the total available army that awards points.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nBugs:\r\nThere's a dead zone that sometimes crops up on the right hand side of the screen. Will attempt to fix this.","title":"Death Mettle"}
