It's an iOS game ported to be compatible with Kongregate, with no adjustments made. The menus still use the annoying drag/drop control scheme, and the grinding is tedious (for iOS games it's okay because you can bring them anywhere, but for PC games it's different, also there's no IAPs). But since the porting worked quite well (I haven't seen any bugs so far), and for the effort put into it, I give this game a 4/5.
Would be nice if you can see the requirements for crafting the items. Not everyone plays Minecraft to know that stuff. Also, the interface that appears when you earn an achivement is quite confusing at first.
The requirements for crafting are hinted at by the crafting recipes (ie. Xray needs 5, flag needs 3, boots need 4 - all the same number of iron ingots as are in the recipe pictures) but either way, if you click the purchase button, it will tell you the price if you don't have enough. I inmplemented a short help screen in this update.
The graphics are amazing, the storyline seems great, but I suppose this isn't really my kind of game. It is too friend-reliant, in the early levels at least. The missions are very hard to finish on your own, but if you summon a level 40 friend the missions become a joke. I can also foresee a huge time barrier later in the game, as well as players with "premium" goods taking a huge advantage in PvP. And you are given too few inventory slots to begin with. 4/5 from me.
Probably one of the best games I have ever played. The combination of bullethell and rhythm gives the two overused game genres a unique feel (and it's great). I'm having a lot of fun with this game, that's for sure.
To those who complain about premium content: You don't need it. You can play this game, you can win it, you can have fun with it without any premium content. Think of the premium content as a way to support the developer of this game, and the things that come with it as a token of appreciation for donating. It could be "Click here to give me 75 Kreds so I can continue game development, and I won't give you anything for that", but no, the developer was generous enough to give you some stuff, so at least be thankful for that. You're not paying 75 Kreds just for the little content that comes with it, you're paying 75 Kreds to support the developer so that he can make better games in the future. If you're a true fan of kupo707 and/or the EBF series and have Kreds, I strongly recommend buying the premium pack for 75 Kreds, it's a very good investment - not only do you get more things to play with in EBF4, you will also get more and better quality games from kupo707 in the future.
OMG, "Managementese" reference in the game description. Can't believe I only noticed this today. 5/5 again, this is simply the best game ever. Worse than Airplane Adventures though.
It's simple, it's easy, and it gets its job done. For the audience this game mainly aims at, all 8 levels are easy enough to clear, so the message is delivered to everyone. For the more hardcore gamers, this game also provides a challenge with the par scores. Design-wise, this game is perfect. As for the message, this game has delivered it well enough so I don't think there's anything I need to say about it.
Hi everyone. There is currently an issue (related to Kong server) which may cause players to be unable to load the latest version of the game. Please do NOT clear your cookies in hope for it to work, because doing so will lead to your savefile being wiped. Thank you for your patience, and hope you enjoy the game.
I'm sorry to hear that some people are having problems trying to load the game. This is likely an issue with Kongregate server. Please don't attempt to clear caches / cookies in hope to be able to load the game. I'll be giving free Daily Bonus Restore to every player, so you don't have to worry about your streak being broken. (I can't load the game either...)
