I will be honest in saying that was a stretch to try to leave the theme while still being in it. I mean, you're a migration? XD But still the idea is pretty nifty, I could seriously see this being finished and with a great commercial success ahead of it."},{"author_name":"StaNov","author_uid":"55257","time":"Sep 11, 2015 @ 6:50pm","epoch":1441997100,"text":"At first I was like &quot;Oh god, that's tooo hard to play on the friday evening...&quot;.

Your mission is to exceed 3500 meters, seems easy enough right? WRONG! In M.O.N.S.T.E.R we have a wide array (only 2) of intelligent (not really) creatures that will stand (fly) between you and loss of oxygen, 3500 meters is pretty high.\r\n\r\nYou will begin your epic journey by pushing the space bar! Hooray! But then it's up to you from there. Clicking on that weird little thing in the center of your island (the \"core\") will bring up a huge (tiny) color coded menu filled with icons that will make you scratch your scalp off in confusion.\r\n\r\nGreen = constructions\r\nOrange = island management\r\nPurple = upgrades\r\n\r\nYou can then build farms, solar panels, and turrets to defend your island from the creatures above. Exciting! Welp, good luck, die safely!\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nLeft click: Select\/Place\r\nSpace: Launch\/Activate attack mode\r\nShift + left click: Quick gather\r\nControl + left click: Quick build\r\n\r\nTips:\r\n\r\n1. Keep yourself fueled up, try to stay above 20 fuel, that will give you enough time to gather 100 resources in emergencies.\r\n\r\n2. Be careful how you build your island, the larger your island is, the more likely it is to get hit.\r\n\r\n3. Grow lots of trees to start out with!\r\n\r\n4. Avoid auto turrets to begin with, they will chew through your resources!\r\n\r\n5. The more engines you have, the faster you can escape!\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nLeft click: Select\/Place\r\nSpace: Launch\/Activate attack mode\r\nShift + left click: Quick gather\r\nLeft click(on \"core\"): Opens menu\r\n\r\nChange-log:\r\nv1: fixed bug where theme looped after reset\r\nv2: changed tooltip font to be easier to read\r\n\r\nPlease report any bugs :)","title":"M.O.N.S.T.E.R"}
