We’ve been working on this on and off for over a year. Which is a new record for the Super Flash Bros. Thanks to everyone for being patient and thanks to all our testers. Anyway I thought I’d take a moment to share this little guide I made to the top-end tactics of the game. I played this game A LOT during testing and came up with some really fun ways to play!

guide

I hope that helps!

    Did you really test this game at all? I find the graphics quite nice, the different combo arrows and stuff is also nice. But the gameplay… Dragging and releasing?! Dude it’s so annoying! I don’t enjoy playing the game, I struggle with it. I don’t know - point, hold the button, something like that. No game that involves dragging and releasing is ever fun. I move the mouse too quickly, it goes off the flash screen and ‘pfew’ my arrow drops pathetically next to my fortress because something screwed up with the aim. It’s just not fun this way…

    and where’s homing/explosion?

    i think the homing is broken. i maxed it at level 3 with pierced but it never orbited enemies, it would barely modify it’s trajectory, if at all

    Yes, the strongest arrow combination in the game both is surely homing/explosion. It kills both regular enemies and bosses at very impressive speed, as splash damage of exploding arrows damages the enemies’ weakest spots as well as neighboring baddies.

    I like how you have to explain your game in some extra documents.

    Since all the previous comments seem slightly negative to some extent…

    I FREAKING LOVE YOU GUYS AND YOUR GAME

    hope that helps

    This game is AWESOME! My best combo is Fire/explosion, especially with bosses, but the Piercing/lightning was a good idea.
    Thanks.

    Btw, its fun to use Lead and Helium at the same time.

    Try fire/explosive combo level 3 it is far better than anything else
