[EventEntry] Accumulated KO 200 certification!

I enjoyed gradually growing the character permanently while continuing to play multiple times.The default movement speed is quite slow, so it was a bit frustrating at the beginning when starting new.At first, I grew Maria and played. I chose it because it was equipped with a shield and, above all, the resurrection skill was attractive, but I had many questions about the effectiveness of the shield. Even though I raised the shield to level 7, the shield was shattered by one guided missile and 20 damage was dealt. You can only revive once, but since it's not full HP revival, you have to be very careful..I couldn't pass stage 4 with Maria, but when I chose Axel and played, it was a new world. The Gulliver skill is temporarily invincible, so it's good to use in case of emergency, and the cooldown is very short compared to its performance. I couldn't clear stage 4 once with Maria, but I immediately entered infinite mode on my 3rd try with Axel. Balance adjustment definitely seems necessary.I've played the boss battle a few times, and the boss battle feels more like PVPVE than just cooperation. Before the boss is summoned, the players fight each other, and when the boss is summoned, the damage is only dealt to the boss. Personally, I thought it would be better to proceed with the boss battle only as a PVE battle.There may be a way to divide PVE boss battles and PVPVE boss battles. In the current boss battle, it seems like there is no particular benefit even if you deal a lot of damage to the boss, but even if you can't catch the boss, if you contribute a lot of damage to the boss, you can gain a lot of experience or gain a more advantageous position in the PVP battle at the moment the boss disappears through rewards. I think it would be good to do that.

[EventEntry] Game review

It's a bullet hell shooting game to enjoy with cute squids.You could also strategize by applying speed pads and ability enhancement items to defeat the squids with powerful force.There were also traps, which was innovative, and there was a happening where I mistook a trap for an item and lost health.Most of the players appear to be bots for the sake of game progression, but some bots attack with powerful weapons, while others just stand still!The screen composition is a simple UI and composition that is easy to enjoy on mobile, so I sometimes felt like I was playing a mobile game.I liked the cross map.It was fun because the squids crossed each other and a quick battle took place.

I wondered when I'd ever reach 200 kills... but I did it as I playedThe furthest I've gone was 31 kills in stage 4

I liked the donut-shaped and U-shaped maps because they were easy to playThe cross-shaped map also felt like it had fewer itemsDue to the map structure, if you go into a corner to get an item, it's hard to get out alive from the enemies, so it was the worst map

I was so engrossed that I didn't realize how time was passing, and I achieved 500 KOs before I knew it.In regular PvP, I liked that you could play sufficiently with basic characters if you strengthened the common stats,But I still think that buying expensive characters was much more effective in terms of health, attack power, and skills.In the boss battle, it seems like everyone is cooperating to defeat the boss, but during the interval time when the boss disappears, it's a survival mode where you have to kill each other,Personally, I couldn't really tell whether it was a cooperative play or a solo play.I was also disappointed that the rewards in the boss battle game results seemed to be more proportional to survival time and KOs than to contributing to defeating the boss,Since the stage name is Boss Battle, I think it would be better if the player who dealt more damage to the boss received a bigger reward.I enjoyed playing it.

No matter how much you level up, you die instantly to level 1 or level 2, so it feels like you're losing strength... I keep wondering why I die from one hit from a low level while playing..Also, seeing characters with player nicknames falling to their deaths every time makes me wonder if this is really PvP... It was a good game to play lightly for a game or two, but I can't help but feel disappointed

[EventEntry] 200 kill certification and impressions

First of all, the normal attack aim is not very good... There are too many frustrating cases.> Also, when they are low on health, the AI gets angry and tries to jump off on their own to avoid giving kills. (Shouldn't this count as a kill score...?)The longer you stay in the same stage, the stronger the AIs become.The shield is like paper... and the sword damage is enormous. Moving left and right is suicide....In many ways, it felt like playing under game conditions that seemed unfair to the player.First of all, I only get one life, but the fact that they revive infinitely... and the fact that stamina remains endlessly (accumulating during play so you can try again) is a good thing, I don't know...And looking at the ad windows that pop up from time to time... I think it was 'developed for mobile phones'. I think the mobile elements are not completely removed yet...Personally, I think an arcade game like a PVE boss battle would have been more fun than PVP, which is a shame.

[EventEntry] I'm participating in the event and going into the store..?(Infinite Gems)

Those who exceeded 20,000 are amazing..I worked hard at first and made 212 points, then looked around...I upgraded the character because I could buy unlimited gems in the store, but whether I upgrade or not, the actual specs are the same..?The movement speed is still slow.. and the attack is the sameAs you can see in the video, I'm automatically sucked into the store because I don't have enough resources...?!When I came out and checked, the store was blocked ㅋㅋYou can purchase unlimited gems in the storeThanks to that, I opened the boss map and played itBoss battle playBut.. I got ad removal before that..?I keep seeing ads like thisI had fun playing.. but I think the character's movement is too slow ㅠThe characters in the game page video move at a decent speed.. but in reality, it's so slow that I feel like I've been scammed by the cover

[BugReport] UI interference issue in 16:10 resolution

It seems that it is arranged based on the most popular 16:9 aspect ratio.Therefore, similar phenomena may occur not only in 16:10 but also in other screen ratios that are not 16:9.

[EventEntry] Achieved 'Cumulative KOs' of 200 or more

I got 500 KOs because I wanted to try the boss battle.It's an asynchronous multiplayer Vampire Survivors-like, so it has peripheral fun, but since it's repetitive gameplay, it gradually gets boring. The bot AI is a bit disappointing, and the boss battle is different from what I expected, but I felt some potential.I heard that the game is already being serviced on mobile, and I don't know how much will be reflected, but I will write down my feedback and improvement plans in a survey.

[EventEntry] Hilton Da Nang Gangster

Or the walking disaster of Hilton Da Nang Wow~ Look at that high score status? Wow...if they are royal customers of that level You can return the Lunar New Year gifts~I can excuse everything about the game, and everything is good, but(How many mobile game-like demos have we seen so far, even though it's a PC target?)When you go to the next round, you respawn,and they overlap three or four peopleto the javelin-wielding Sunglims armed with swords, maces, and orbsBeing beaten to a pulp and spawn-killed without being able to do anything...isn't that like saying, 'You just die here~'?LOL, did you design it this way on purpose? Shouldn't you at least protect personal space?

[EventEntry] Participating in the event!

Achieved the event condition with 207 kills!To summarize my personal gameplay experience,1. It would be nice to have some more fun elements- The biggest thing I felt while playing is that it's a PVP battle, but all the user can do is move and use skills. I can accept the auto-attack, but when I level up, what weapon I will use and what weapon I will upgrade are randomly decided, so I felt that the fun part was limited. It would be nice to have something added systemically.2. The AI is somewhat stupid- The AI is really frustrating. It just stands still and gets hit by all the attacks and dies, or suddenly runs to the cliffs outside and inside the map and falls to its death, which slightly reduced immersion. Personally, I think the main thing in this kind of game is the psychological warfare and physical fight with the opponent, so I hope they make the AI a little smarter and reduce the number of cases where they die absurdly.3. For melee, Morning Star, and for ranged, homing missiles are OP- First of all, Morning Star is really good among all weapons. If Morning Star appears, either me or the opponent will be KO'd in one or two hits. It seems that proper balance adjustment is needed. And in the case of homing missiles, it is easy to hit because the character's movement speed is slow.4. Inaccurate targetting- Because enemy targeting is inaccurate, the direction did not change and damage was dealt well even with ranged attacks if I was as close as possible to the opponent. When I used the rage skill with the basic character, I often missed all the attacks even though they were launched quickly.I wrote a lot about the disappointing parts, but I still enjoyed the game.I look forward to the various modes and features that will be released at the official launch!

I've played it as a mobile game, but it was more fun to play it as a computer game because the controls were easier than playing it on a mobile phone.The controls are simple, but it had an addictive charm.It was fun to strengthen the character.It was also nice to be able to decorate the profile.The maps were so diverse that I didn't get bored.I wanted to play it when I saw it in the Stove library.

[EventEntry] Cumulative KO certification

There are many upgrade elements, so it looks good for multiple playthroughs.But in the case of the gun, it's automatic targeting, but if the mob moves upward, it shoots above the head, and if it moves downward, it aims below the feet... this is too much

23/11/2025

[EventEntry] The weekly ranking is amazing...

Are they real users? There seem to be some overwhelmingly skilled players. I realized it while writing, it was Squid, not Squad... It was fun.Weapons are a matter of preference, so rather than being overbalanced, it's a matter of how well you dodge and hit, so the more people there are, the more fun it will be.

Even if I use Wrath, there's nothing that hits properly Close combat looked good, so I switched to close combat, but it's too weak at level 1...I understand that you lowered the hit rate for the sake of balance with close combat, but I think this is too much ㅜㅜAnd honestly, I don't think it fits on PC There's no sense of accomplishment and it's too much of a mobile game BM and play sensibility for killing time

[EventEntry] Cumulative KO event participation

I enjoyed it without realizing how much time had passed because it's a multiplayer Vampire Survivors-like casual game.The controls are very simple, but there's no end to the growth, so it's good for killing time.

[EventEntry] [Cumulative KO] Event Participation

When I first saw the screenshots and videos, I thought it was a game like Brotato, but the feeling of playing it was like playing io games.As of now, it just feels like fighting bots with different map types, so it's just fun to play for a short time to kill time, but seeing the description on the introduction page about boss battles and creating rooms, I'm curious how the monotony will change.

21/11/2025

[EventEntry] Event participation

Thanks to the system where weapons are automatically fired in the Brotato style, Even though the genre has been simplified, it felt unique.The rage skill, which can turn the tide of unfavorable battles, was also good to use strategically.However, weapon acquisition is also random, and ability enhancement is also random, so there is unexpectedness, butIt felt a bit frustrating because it was difficult to develop in the direction I wanted.I thought it would be nice to add a way to acquire only certain weapons, rather than all-random enhancement.Also, targeting is somewhat designated around the mouse cursor, orIf a function to lock on to enemies with the keyboard is added, it will be less frustrating when playing non-melee characters.Currently, there are many situations where you are shooting into the air when there are no enemies around, Or you are about to kill an enemy, but another enemy approaches and you miss the last hit.
