Adding a player-vs-player mode when you're on equal terms, or even an AI that you're on equal terms with but outsmarts you would have been better to play, I feel."},{"author_name":"PhysiOS","author_uid":"65965","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 2:05pm","epoch":1450101600,"text":"I liked it, if you mess up your shots and you get locked on will get killed very quickly."},{"author_name":"cimbaman","author_uid":"60820","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 4:06pm","epoch":1450108860,"text":"It is impossible to not get hit in the corner.

I wasn't sold on the enemy having all the advantages (faster shooting and faster restoring). Maybe if there were multiple stages and it built up to a tough enemy.
