Reviews for "Hydranought"

Pretty good. Text tutorials are kind of irritating though. I advise that the tutorial at least be given some images to accompany the text to better explain how to play. For the game's complexity, blocks of text aren't sufficient.

Here is a tip to anyone planning on getting the last medal.
Do not bother with it unless you have a massive load of time as it is a massive grind and even when you get as far as to the final battle you are not going to beat it in a short amount of time.
I was stuck there for about 30 minutes watching my ships and the other ships go back and fourth from my base to theirs over and over again. You also need to have just about every god dam races skills maxed out to do it.
So overall it took me well over 24 hours to even do it and I feel way too insane now.
Here are just 2 pictures of what you should end with.

You reach the final area rather quickly but from the 3rd fight onward its like running against a wall.... definetely too grindy.

This games are already a repetitive grindfest by nature, but in this one that feeling is greater than ever. It feels you're doing the same thing over and over again with 8 different colors.

Despite taking several days to grind on the lowest levels to reach 30 in all categories, the last level is still horrendous for a 50 point medal. You may get lucky and make it to the enemy side on the rebound and maybe not. If you do expect to do 10 to 5k of damage....which will then be healed while the enemy forces you back. If you are very unlucky you will lose if the human skill or rivi skill does not kick in fast enough. Last level needs to be nerfed or the upgrade power increase as there is very little different to a cooldown at level 1 and one at level 30 just for one example.

While I eventually did finish level 10 in the center it took me at least six tries despite having all stats of ALL races maxed, using Repair when being attacked, and having all ships and abilities on auto. There is very little strategy for the last level other than set all to auto and pray.

I was thinking of writing a leveling guide for this game but seeing how the game is a worse grindfest than Maplestory or Quest 64 I figured why even bother? Since very few will even bother with the time commitment necessary to beat it.
