I've heard people say that the great gems have mixed powers and I think they do. I have a great ruby and it seams to have a fast attacking power and attacks multiple targets at once. I wonder if it's another bug or if it's soppose to do that, then again it could just be were the gamed is getting slow from so many gems. Any body else have a mixed power great gem? And a Question I asked earlier, anybody ever had an Uber Stone before?

Bubbles - 2008-08-18, 10:42 AM

I think the game is great. The random picking is cool and I don't think you should change that but being able to upgrade chances again so that the chance of getting a perfect gem is 20% would be cool too. I mean then we might actual have a chance to get an Uber Stone, by the way has anyone? I wouldn't change a whole lot of stuff but maybe a new map would be good and also some super special gems made from combos of special gems. But all and all, I love the game, its better than others i've played.

the new ads that started a few weeks ago have viruses in them and that makes my computer angry...

To 2little4 you - 2008-08-16, 04:04 AM

well for extreme it's good to have a red crystal at level 8 to level 12 for air levels on extreme and survival.

2little4you - 2008-08-15, 11:32 AM

The current version of the game is still in testing so please be patient if you encounter any problems. (copy and pasted from right below the banner on the play page.

Garruk - 2008-08-13, 08:41 PM

Yeah. I was really annoyed when I realized that the black/mystic opal are glitched. and the same with the upgrade for the yellow sapphire.

crunchman - 2008-08-13, 03:18 PM

anyone notice how the black/mystic black opal only upgrade damages of existing towers? not sure where i report a glitch, if i can, but i love the game and would love to help :D

I took 200 repicks in the Survival-Sandbox mode and finally used what I learned in that statistics class = you have 30% chance of picking both flawed and normal gems, 33% of flawless, and only 7% chance of perfect gems. That's a lot worse odds than others have guessed. Also, the scripting on this comments page was totally screwed up when I posted this.

Jared B - 2008-08-08, 12:14 AM

nuts about gtd: i think the lower cooldown the faster your gems shoot thats why opal's arua seems to make your games shoot faster.

nutzaboutgtd - 2008-08-07, 01:32 PM

why is my question repeated 3 times? I did keep checking to see if there was an answer.

nutz about gtd - 2008-08-07, 01:11 AM

What does the cooldown statistic do? Is a higher cooldown stat better than a lower one?

Extreme mode is not hard, it is extreme :p It is doable - bc i have done it. Most people like me dont find ground a challenge - it is air: so aim is to get strong towers on the air route and love AA buildings.

aequiveritas - 2008-08-06, 07:05 PM

easy going -.-

jakeypoopies - 2008-08-06, 06:07 PM

Fish - 2008-08-03, 05:04 AM To you. I guess I should have clarified that I think some of the greats simply have abilities normally only found on other gems. Getting two greats doesn't give extra abilities to them. Plantman - 2008-08-03, 03:48 AM Fish, just then were u replying to me or someone else? Fish - 2008-08-02, 09:02 PM Some do. Some are also pretty worthless. The Great Emerald is garbage, you're better off keeping one of the perfects to make a Dark Emerald. Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:47 PM by that i mean 2 same perfects = 1 great! Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:45 PM Hint, great are obtains by getting 2 of the same perfects in 1 shot of gem placing. Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:43 PM Is it me, or do greats have mixed powers, eg i had a great ruby and topaz and the ruby did multi-shots as well, weird hey? Fish - 2008-08-02, 02:25 PM Another quick tip. Get as many Jades as you can early on and upgrade them to the max. Solves all gold problems, so you'll be sitting at 50 lives at the end of every round. Fish - 2008-08-02, 02:23 PM Yeah, fliers are the ones that get us all. To deal with them better, have a big solid clump of towers right on the point where the roads cross (a square, diamond, cross shape, anything will do). Put only the best towers there. Dark Emeralds, Blood Stones, Red Crystal, etc. Towers there get the highest time on target for fliers, and if you can get a bunch of Dark Emeralds there, you'll have a much easier time with fliers. Getting a couple Golds isn't a bad idea either, as that + maxed out Red Crystal will zero out the armor on fliers. jhc - 2008-08-02, 01:46 AM thanks for the advice...i'll try to make another one, but my problem isn't the creeps...the flyers. i've made it trough this lvl with no problem from the creeps Fish - 2008-08-01, 05:46 PM To be honest, jhc, your maze is awful. It only gets run fully once, and all of the waypoints are very close together. You want the creeps to have to run through the full maze every time they go to the next waypoint (or at least most of the maze). The only time yours does that is going from 2 to 3. A good maze will require the creeps to run it at least 4 times, and the best will require them to run it 7 times. You also want to have a large clump of powerful towers at the crossroads to deal with fliers better. Try to keep the creeps close to that as much as possible. jhc - 2008-08-01, 08:26 AM za best of my performance. anyone has a more eficient maze? this is it: http://img258.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtdlvl48kc3.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 03:07 AM i'm cursed, how can i get passed lvl 36 flyers? any help using this maze: http://img381.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtdlvl36rf5.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:55 AM dorry for the double comment, so...what can i do better to that maze?(besides gems and special combinations) jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:53 AM this is my best maze, yet. http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtowerdefensemw8.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:47 AM this is my best maze, yet. http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtowerdefensemw8.jpg someone - 2008-07-30, 10:42 AM when i first played this, it was the 3rd TD game i played, i really liked it,but then, once i played a few more i found a game like this, but with more gems, and you can combine different gems! (combine a blue with a red) and instead of 5 gem grades chipped, flawed, normal, flawless, perfect, it has 6,now im probally getting on your nerves talking about the game, and not telling you the name, so i will, gemcraft. the only website i know you can acces it from is www.kongregate.com/?referrer=172patrick4 you need to register in order to save progress wtf? - 2008-07-30, 03:39 AM oh my lol. u can buy lives, that explains everything... try to do 60 lvl without losing a single live ;) ??? - 2008-07-29, 06:13 PM i think they should make the extra lives cost less... 10gp per life wen the monsters are takin like 15 at a time is ridiculous wtf? - 2008-07-29, 05:22 PM so u wanna tell me its possible to survive 223 lvl in survival without losing a single live??? doubt i would die to any ground, but no chance against air. i had plenty of crystals, black opals etc... no chance in 56 or 60, cant remember which it was. maybe with better luck, but over 200? no way... so how the f*** can u do that??? mp - 2008-07-28, 06:34 AM i miss the slates ^_^zomg^_^ - 2008-07-27, 08:57 PM how do ppl get to lvl 43 on easy? i dont get it huh, and i always die on lvl 28 for extreme and i dont know why i have a solid defense. is it cuz i dont maze enough? sds - 2008-07-27, 05:03 PM enter a commentsdvgbsdvdsv here to to Jared B - 2008-07-27, 03:51 PM the probability is 50% for either malachite or silver in extreme or survival like Jared said, just only for the first round. yiyughykuu - 2008-07-27, 01:01 PM DICKTODICK.COM DEAD NIGGER STORAGE pete - 2008-07-27, 12:31 PM so what about getting a peek at the source-code? Or is the owner working on a sequel? To Jared B - 2008-07-27, 05:32 AM Yes and no: many times i get neither. Actually it is the same probability until you upgrade gems. Jared B - 2008-07-27, 02:27 AM have you noticed that when you do Extreme or Survival you will always have the chance to get a malachite or a silver on your first shot? Plus if you get a chipped diamond, gold or sapphire as the first gem you place you know that you will get a silver and if you get a chipped emerald, opal or aquamarine as the first gem you place you know that you will get a malachite. gab - 2008-07-27, 01:26 AM yes u do. go to here: http://www.gemtowerdefense.com/sandbox asd - 2008-07-26, 09:33 PM wtf again i didnt get sandbox mode after finishing extreme, zzzzzz af - 2008-07-26, 08:02 PM z wtf i didnt get sandbox mode after finishing extreme zzz Black Opal King *and* Queen - 2008-07-26, 06:11 PM Kingslaughterer - you can move the black opal?

When you move it too another rock it can slightly change position.. For me it blocked the entire maze making the creatures destroy a part of the maze.. This caused me too loose a total of 50 lives in one round.. Hurray for loosing round 43 this way after no leaks... www.MySpace.com/Jamesfotc - 2008-07-25, 11:59 PM Jared that's a nice little strategy you have, however you should be aware that some of the stuff previously mentioned is in the updates section. I think number 10 is the best one though. Jared B - 2008-07-25, 06:06 PM My tips to get really far on survival 1. you need to have a silver on your 1st shot 2. on your 2nd shot you should try to get a flawed gem best is probably flawed amethyst (do not forget to upgrade your silver) 3. you need a red crystal by level 12-16 4. you should try to get a black opal and rose quarts crystal by level 20-24 5.try to get a 1 or 2 uranium 235 for slow 6. the more black opals you can get the better 7. try to get lots and lots of different specials by selecting gems that you do not already have 8. if you are leaking you should make your maze better 9. I got to level 68 before dying. 10. have fun Jared B - 2008-07-25, 05:08 PM have you noticed that when you do Extreme or Survival you will always have the chance to get a malachite or a silver on your first shot? Plus if you get a chipped diamond, gold or sapphire as the first gem you place you know that you will get a silver and if you get a chipped emerald, opal or aquamarine as the first gem you place you know that you will get a malachite. Snipesava - 2008-07-25, 10:12 AM I found a good way to beat Extreme mode without waiting for each individual wave. with firefox or internet explorer, open the game in multiple tabs, like about 4 or 5. start with the first tab. Place your gems, pick one, then move to the next tab and do the same there, moving on to the next tab each time. i've attempted this a few times but was unable to get very far because i've been busy. But from my experience it made it easier to try to beat it then just doing one at a time. Jared B - 2008-07-24, 09:43 PM king cola real name is Jordan. Jared B - 2008-07-24, 09:04 PM Hey king cola.

Jared B - 2008-07-24, 08:34 PM zero you need to beat the game on extreme to unlock sandbox mode. On sandbox mode you get 1000 lives and 100000 gold. zero - 2008-07-24, 04:53 PM how do you get to play sandbox mode?? Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 06:50 AM Oh and is it me or is air way too hard? I realize you put a Survival Mode. What would be great if you were to put a Survival Ground-Only mode: would help us build cool mazes without worrying about air! :) Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 05:05 AM Lol just watch the in-game clock rack up the time! Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 05:02 AM GUYS: I HAVE THE TOOL FOR YOUR WAVE NEEDS! I was very bothered by the slow wave times and the slow movement of creeps - especially since you can't build meanwhile. This is a tool to speed up the game (also speeds up everything in windows but clock, e.g. in word arrow flashes faster). Warning: don't put it up too high :p 8x speed is good to get wave over fast. Link: http://www.brothersoft.com/game-speed-adjuster-48443.html Just download a tool such as this InThrees - 2008-07-23, 01:03 AM I think I've figured out what is reducing the replay value for me, and making my attempts to beat extreme mode unattractive: 1. Take how long it takes to play each individual wave / level. 2. Multiply by completely random nature of gem drops. 3. Frequently get screwed by lack of good gems / combos far enough into a game to make starting over just not worth it. Games take too long to reconcile with the complete random nature of gem drops... especially on the harder modes where creeps may end up running several laps in a well built maze... only to get screwed the next air level (or even a regular land level) because you just got crappy gems for the past 5 rounds. havemercy - 2008-07-22, 03:23 PM Gi! how do you get to such high level in survival mode !!??? Telle - 2008-07-22, 11:19 AM Oh... and the kills don't transfer from lower gems to better gems when combined. They should. Zid Kazanagi - 2008-07-22, 05:05 AM i mean from gems and rocks Zid Kazanagi - 2008-07-22, 05:04 AM i have played survival mode and got up to level 96, but i can't find my name in the list of high scores. i just type my name as "Zid" and submit it. Anyway, I do enjoyed playing this game. i did draw a flower form of gems and rocks (^^,) Nacky - 2008-07-22, 03:44 AM My score is 68965 . Damn!! Guilherme L B - 2008-07-22, 02:06 AM Change a little bit the graphics, the monsters ground/flying, and the background =/ There some bugs too =/ Pat - 2008-07-21, 11:00 AM Only gripe I have is that when I finally place the third gem for a combo, I HAVE to combine them on that gem, while I think I should be able to on any of the gems that are in the conbination. Otherwise, I think its great. Not being able to delete gems is good as it really makes you think about where you place things. The idea of having ANY control over what gem you get completely destroys what makes this TD so much better than others. It's not a matter of balance, if you want to be able to pick what tower you lay down, go play any of the eleven billion TD games that lets you do that. If a major gameplay mechanic is a problem for you, maybe you just don't like the game and should play something else... Telle - 2008-07-21, 10:56 AM Few bug comments: 1. The jade description is hard to read (the scrolling doesn't work properly) 2. The Cooldown number doesn't always accurately reflect an opal effect. Suggestions: 1. Have more than 2 pictures for the enemy. 2. Have a box in the lower right that displays the current level's stats when the creeps are present. InThrees - 2008-07-19, 01:02 PM I really like the premise of the game but the one thing I really feel would benefit is a bit more control over the types of gems you place. I understand that too much control would ruin the balance, but some sort of method that allows the picking of at least one specific type and quality of gem every few levels would be great, or perhaps see what the 5 picks are so you can put them in more advantageous places. It kind of ruins it for me when I end up with a possible great air gem that hardly covers the path. =/ But regardless, very innovative. havemercy - 2008-07-19, 06:54 AM D wrote "I'm addicted to this game and only play survival but have never exceeded level 108.

Fish - 2008-08-03, 05:04 AM To you. I guess I should have clarified that I think some of the greats simply have abilities normally only found on other gems. Getting two greats doesn't give extra abilities to them. Plantman - 2008-08-03, 03:48 AM Fish, just then were u replying to me or someone else? Fish - 2008-08-02, 09:02 PM Some do. Some are also pretty worthless. The Great Emerald is garbage, you're better off keeping one of the perfects to make a Dark Emerald. Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:47 PM by that i mean 2 same perfects = 1 great! Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:45 PM Hint, great are obtains by getting 2 of the same perfects in 1 shot of gem placing. Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:43 PM Is it me, or do greats have mixed powers, eg i had a great ruby and topaz and the ruby did multi-shots as well, weird hey? Fish - 2008-08-02, 02:25 PM Another quick tip. Get as many Jades as you can early on and upgrade them to the max. Solves all gold problems, so you'll be sitting at 50 lives at the end of every round. Fish - 2008-08-02, 02:23 PM Yeah, fliers are the ones that get us all. To deal with them better, have a big solid clump of towers right on the point where the roads cross (a square, diamond, cross shape, anything will do). Put only the best towers there. Dark Emeralds, Blood Stones, Red Crystal, etc. Towers there get the highest time on target for fliers, and if you can get a bunch of Dark Emeralds there, you'll have a much easier time with fliers. Getting a couple Golds isn't a bad idea either, as that + maxed out Red Crystal will zero out the armor on fliers. jhc - 2008-08-02, 01:46 AM thanks for the advice...i'll try to make another one, but my problem isn't the creeps...the flyers. i've made it trough this lvl with no problem from the creeps Fish - 2008-08-01, 05:46 PM To be honest, jhc, your maze is awful. It only gets run fully once, and all of the waypoints are very close together. You want the creeps to have to run through the full maze every time they go to the next waypoint (or at least most of the maze). The only time yours does that is going from 2 to 3. A good maze will require the creeps to run it at least 4 times, and the best will require them to run it 7 times. You also want to have a large clump of powerful towers at the crossroads to deal with fliers better. Try to keep the creeps close to that as much as possible. jhc - 2008-08-01, 08:26 AM za best of my performance. anyone has a more eficient maze? this is it: http://img258.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtdlvl48kc3.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 03:07 AM i'm cursed, how can i get passed lvl 36 flyers? any help using this maze: http://img381.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtdlvl36rf5.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:55 AM dorry for the double comment, so...what can i do better to that maze?(besides gems and special combinations) jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:53 AM this is my best maze, yet. http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtowerdefensemw8.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:47 AM this is my best maze, yet. http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtowerdefensemw8.jpg someone - 2008-07-30, 10:42 AM when i first played this, it was the 3rd TD game i played, i really liked it,but then, once i played a few more i found a game like this, but with more gems, and you can combine different gems! (combine a blue with a red) and instead of 5 gem grades chipped, flawed, normal, flawless, perfect, it has 6,now im probally getting on your nerves talking about the game, and not telling you the name, so i will, gemcraft. the only website i know you can acces it from is www.kongregate.com/?referrer=172patrick4 you need to register in order to save progress wtf? - 2008-07-30, 03:39 AM oh my lol. u can buy lives, that explains everything... try to do 60 lvl without losing a single live ;) ??? - 2008-07-29, 06:13 PM i think they should make the extra lives cost less... 10gp per life wen the monsters are takin like 15 at a time is ridiculous wtf? - 2008-07-29, 05:22 PM so u wanna tell me its possible to survive 223 lvl in survival without losing a single live??? doubt i would die to any ground, but no chance against air. i had plenty of crystals, black opals etc... no chance in 56 or 60, cant remember which it was. maybe with better luck, but over 200? no way... so how the f*** can u do that??? mp - 2008-07-28, 06:34 AM i miss the slates ^_^zomg^_^ - 2008-07-27, 08:57 PM how do ppl get to lvl 43 on easy? i dont get it huh, and i always die on lvl 28 for extreme and i dont know why i have a solid defense. is it cuz i dont maze enough? sds - 2008-07-27, 05:03 PM enter a commentsdvgbsdvdsv here to to Jared B - 2008-07-27, 03:51 PM the probability is 50% for either malachite or silver in extreme or survival like Jared said, just only for the first round. yiyughykuu - 2008-07-27, 01:01 PM DICKTODICK.COM DEAD NIGGER STORAGE pete - 2008-07-27, 12:31 PM so what about getting a peek at the source-code? Or is the owner working on a sequel? To Jared B - 2008-07-27, 05:32 AM Yes and no: many times i get neither. Actually it is the same probability until you upgrade gems. Jared B - 2008-07-27, 02:27 AM have you noticed that when you do Extreme or Survival you will always have the chance to get a malachite or a silver on your first shot? Plus if you get a chipped diamond, gold or sapphire as the first gem you place you know that you will get a silver and if you get a chipped emerald, opal or aquamarine as the first gem you place you know that you will get a malachite. gab - 2008-07-27, 01:26 AM yes u do. go to here: http://www.gemtowerdefense.com/sandbox asd - 2008-07-26, 09:33 PM wtf again i didnt get sandbox mode after finishing extreme, zzzzzz af - 2008-07-26, 08:02 PM z wtf i didnt get sandbox mode after finishing extreme zzz Black Opal King *and* Queen - 2008-07-26, 06:11 PM Kingslaughterer - you can move the black opal?

When you move it too another rock it can slightly change position.. For me it blocked the entire maze making the creatures destroy a part of the maze.. This caused me too loose a total of 50 lives in one round.. Hurray for loosing round 43 this way after no leaks... www.MySpace.com/Jamesfotc - 2008-07-25, 11:59 PM Jared that's a nice little strategy you have, however you should be aware that some of the stuff previously mentioned is in the updates section. I think number 10 is the best one though. Jared B - 2008-07-25, 06:06 PM My tips to get really far on survival 1. you need to have a silver on your 1st shot 2. on your 2nd shot you should try to get a flawed gem best is probably flawed amethyst (do not forget to upgrade your silver) 3. you need a red crystal by level 12-16 4. you should try to get a black opal and rose quarts crystal by level 20-24 5.try to get a 1 or 2 uranium 235 for slow 6. the more black opals you can get the better 7. try to get lots and lots of different specials by selecting gems that you do not already have 8. if you are leaking you should make your maze better 9. I got to level 68 before dying. 10. have fun Jared B - 2008-07-25, 05:08 PM have you noticed that when you do Extreme or Survival you will always have the chance to get a malachite or a silver on your first shot? Plus if you get a chipped diamond, gold or sapphire as the first gem you place you know that you will get a silver and if you get a chipped emerald, opal or aquamarine as the first gem you place you know that you will get a malachite. Snipesava - 2008-07-25, 10:12 AM I found a good way to beat Extreme mode without waiting for each individual wave. with firefox or internet explorer, open the game in multiple tabs, like about 4 or 5. start with the first tab. Place your gems, pick one, then move to the next tab and do the same there, moving on to the next tab each time. i've attempted this a few times but was unable to get very far because i've been busy. But from my experience it made it easier to try to beat it then just doing one at a time. Jared B - 2008-07-24, 09:43 PM king cola real name is Jordan. Jared B - 2008-07-24, 09:04 PM Hey king cola.

Jared B - 2008-07-24, 08:34 PM zero you need to beat the game on extreme to unlock sandbox mode. On sandbox mode you get 1000 lives and 100000 gold. zero - 2008-07-24, 04:53 PM how do you get to play sandbox mode?? Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 06:50 AM Oh and is it me or is air way too hard? I realize you put a Survival Mode. What would be great if you were to put a Survival Ground-Only mode: would help us build cool mazes without worrying about air! :) Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 05:05 AM Lol just watch the in-game clock rack up the time! Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 05:02 AM GUYS: I HAVE THE TOOL FOR YOUR WAVE NEEDS! I was very bothered by the slow wave times and the slow movement of creeps - especially since you can't build meanwhile. This is a tool to speed up the game (also speeds up everything in windows but clock, e.g. in word arrow flashes faster). Warning: don't put it up too high :p 8x speed is good to get wave over fast. Link: http://www.brothersoft.com/game-speed-adjuster-48443.html Just download a tool such as this InThrees - 2008-07-23, 01:03 AM I think I've figured out what is reducing the replay value for me, and making my attempts to beat extreme mode unattractive: 1. Take how long it takes to play each individual wave / level. 2. Multiply by completely random nature of gem drops. 3. Frequently get screwed by lack of good gems / combos far enough into a game to make starting over just not worth it. Games take too long to reconcile with the complete random nature of gem drops... especially on the harder modes where creeps may end up running several laps in a well built maze... only to get screwed the next air level (or even a regular land level) because you just got crappy gems for the past 5 rounds. havemercy - 2008-07-22, 03:23 PM Gi! how do you get to such high level in survival mode !!??? Telle - 2008-07-22, 11:19 AM Oh... and the kills don't transfer from lower gems to better gems when combined. They should. Zid Kazanagi - 2008-07-22, 05:05 AM i mean from gems and rocks Zid Kazanagi - 2008-07-22, 05:04 AM i have played survival mode and got up to level 96, but i can't find my name in the list of high scores. i just type my name as "Zid" and submit it. Anyway, I do enjoyed playing this game. i did draw a flower form of gems and rocks (^^,) Nacky - 2008-07-22, 03:44 AM My score is 68965 . Damn!! Guilherme L B - 2008-07-22, 02:06 AM Change a little bit the graphics, the monsters ground/flying, and the background =/ There some bugs too =/ Pat - 2008-07-21, 11:00 AM Only gripe I have is that when I finally place the third gem for a combo, I HAVE to combine them on that gem, while I think I should be able to on any of the gems that are in the conbination. Otherwise, I think its great. Not being able to delete gems is good as it really makes you think about where you place things. The idea of having ANY control over what gem you get completely destroys what makes this TD so much better than others. It's not a matter of balance, if you want to be able to pick what tower you lay down, go play any of the eleven billion TD games that lets you do that. If a major gameplay mechanic is a problem for you, maybe you just don't like the game and should play something else... Telle - 2008-07-21, 10:56 AM Few bug comments: 1. The jade description is hard to read (the scrolling doesn't work properly) 2. The Cooldown number doesn't always accurately reflect an opal effect. Suggestions: 1. Have more than 2 pictures for the enemy. 2. Have a box in the lower right that displays the current level's stats when the creeps are present. InThrees - 2008-07-19, 01:02 PM I really like the premise of the game but the one thing I really feel would benefit is a bit more control over the types of gems you place. I understand that too much control would ruin the balance, but some sort of method that allows the picking of at least one specific type and quality of gem every few levels would be great, or perhaps see what the 5 picks are so you can put them in more advantageous places. It kind of ruins it for me when I end up with a possible great air gem that hardly covers the path. =/ But regardless, very innovative. havemercy - 2008-07-19, 06:54 AM D wrote "I'm addicted to this game and only play survival but have never exceeded level 108.

Wryyyyyyyy - 2008-07-16, 07:39 AM yeah. maybe not more towers, btu just more combo possibilities ( im tired of getting stuck with some shitty chipped opal). also the ability to pick any of the placed gems to occupy the space of the combo-gem, not just the most recently placed. the ability to DELETE GEMS. this is much needed. if any of this seems to be too much trouble, at least make this open source and provide somewhere (or i will via here) for us to poast them. post the .swf (preferably decompiled) so we can tinker. your lover pete - 2008-07-16, 06:55 AM Wryyyy - agreed - I can't quit playing, love to get a 6-pack and play for 2-3 hours - but there are flaws, needs more towers, balanced power etc. Wryyyyyyyy - 2008-07-16, 03:16 AM this just keep making me sad... this game has so much potential. and you allready have a dedicated fanbase. do something with this! your lover, dio havemercy - 2008-07-15, 04:08 PM Is there a way to make the little man going faster in the game ? havemercy - 2008-07-15, 04:01 PM Is there a way to make the little man going faster in the game ? havemercy - 2008-07-15, 03:42 PM Is there a way to make the little man going faster in the game ?

Plantman - 2008-08-02, 03:43 PM Is it me, or do greats have mixed powers, eg i had a great ruby and topaz and the ruby did multi-shots as well, weird hey? Fish - 2008-08-02, 02:25 PM Another quick tip. Get as many Jades as you can early on and upgrade them to the max. Solves all gold problems, so you'll be sitting at 50 lives at the end of every round. Fish - 2008-08-02, 02:23 PM Yeah, fliers are the ones that get us all. To deal with them better, have a big solid clump of towers right on the point where the roads cross (a square, diamond, cross shape, anything will do). Put only the best towers there. Dark Emeralds, Blood Stones, Red Crystal, etc. Towers there get the highest time on target for fliers, and if you can get a bunch of Dark Emeralds there, you'll have a much easier time with fliers. Getting a couple Golds isn't a bad idea either, as that + maxed out Red Crystal will zero out the armor on fliers. jhc - 2008-08-02, 01:46 AM thanks for the advice...i'll try to make another one, but my problem isn't the creeps...the flyers. i've made it trough this lvl with no problem from the creeps Fish - 2008-08-01, 05:46 PM To be honest, jhc, your maze is awful. It only gets run fully once, and all of the waypoints are very close together. You want the creeps to have to run through the full maze every time they go to the next waypoint (or at least most of the maze). The only time yours does that is going from 2 to 3. A good maze will require the creeps to run it at least 4 times, and the best will require them to run it 7 times. You also want to have a large clump of powerful towers at the crossroads to deal with fliers better. Try to keep the creeps close to that as much as possible. jhc - 2008-08-01, 08:26 AM za best of my performance. anyone has a more eficient maze? this is it: http://img258.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtdlvl48kc3.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 03:07 AM i'm cursed, how can i get passed lvl 36 flyers? any help using this maze: http://img381.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtdlvl36rf5.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:55 AM dorry for the double comment, so...what can i do better to that maze?(besides gems and special combinations) jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:53 AM this is my best maze, yet. http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtowerdefensemw8.jpg jhc - 2008-08-01, 01:47 AM this is my best maze, yet. http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gemtowerdefensemw8.jpg someone - 2008-07-30, 10:42 AM when i first played this, it was the 3rd TD game i played, i really liked it,but then, once i played a few more i found a game like this, but with more gems, and you can combine different gems! (combine a blue with a red) and instead of 5 gem grades chipped, flawed, normal, flawless, perfect, it has 6,now im probally getting on your nerves talking about the game, and not telling you the name, so i will, gemcraft. the only website i know you can acces it from is www.kongregate.com/?referrer=172patrick4 you need to register in order to save progress wtf? - 2008-07-30, 03:39 AM oh my lol. u can buy lives, that explains everything... try to do 60 lvl without losing a single live ;) ??? - 2008-07-29, 06:13 PM i think they should make the extra lives cost less... 10gp per life wen the monsters are takin like 15 at a time is ridiculous wtf? - 2008-07-29, 05:22 PM so u wanna tell me its possible to survive 223 lvl in survival without losing a single live??? doubt i would die to any ground, but no chance against air. i had plenty of crystals, black opals etc... no chance in 56 or 60, cant remember which it was. maybe with better luck, but over 200? no way... so how the f*** can u do that??? mp - 2008-07-28, 06:34 AM i miss the slates ^_^zomg^_^ - 2008-07-27, 08:57 PM how do ppl get to lvl 43 on easy? i dont get it huh, and i always die on lvl 28 for extreme and i dont know why i have a solid defense. is it cuz i dont maze enough? sds - 2008-07-27, 05:03 PM enter a commentsdvgbsdvdsv here to to Jared B - 2008-07-27, 03:51 PM the probability is 50% for either malachite or silver in extreme or survival like Jared said, just only for the first round. yiyughykuu - 2008-07-27, 01:01 PM DICKTODICK.COM DEAD NIGGER STORAGE pete - 2008-07-27, 12:31 PM so what about getting a peek at the source-code? Or is the owner working on a sequel? To Jared B - 2008-07-27, 05:32 AM Yes and no: many times i get neither. Actually it is the same probability until you upgrade gems. Jared B - 2008-07-27, 02:27 AM have you noticed that when you do Extreme or Survival you will always have the chance to get a malachite or a silver on your first shot? Plus if you get a chipped diamond, gold or sapphire as the first gem you place you know that you will get a silver and if you get a chipped emerald, opal or aquamarine as the first gem you place you know that you will get a malachite. gab - 2008-07-27, 01:26 AM yes u do. go to here: http://www.gemtowerdefense.com/sandbox asd - 2008-07-26, 09:33 PM wtf again i didnt get sandbox mode after finishing extreme, zzzzzz af - 2008-07-26, 08:02 PM z wtf i didnt get sandbox mode after finishing extreme zzz Black Opal King *and* Queen - 2008-07-26, 06:11 PM Kingslaughterer - you can move the black opal?

When you move it too another rock it can slightly change position.. For me it blocked the entire maze making the creatures destroy a part of the maze.. This caused me too loose a total of 50 lives in one round.. Hurray for loosing round 43 this way after no leaks... www.MySpace.com/Jamesfotc - 2008-07-25, 11:59 PM Jared that's a nice little strategy you have, however you should be aware that some of the stuff previously mentioned is in the updates section. I think number 10 is the best one though. Jared B - 2008-07-25, 06:06 PM My tips to get really far on survival 1. you need to have a silver on your 1st shot 2. on your 2nd shot you should try to get a flawed gem best is probably flawed amethyst (do not forget to upgrade your silver) 3. you need a red crystal by level 12-16 4. you should try to get a black opal and rose quarts crystal by level 20-24 5.try to get a 1 or 2 uranium 235 for slow 6. the more black opals you can get the better 7. try to get lots and lots of different specials by selecting gems that you do not already have 8. if you are leaking you should make your maze better 9. I got to level 68 before dying. 10. have fun Jared B - 2008-07-25, 05:08 PM have you noticed that when you do Extreme or Survival you will always have the chance to get a malachite or a silver on your first shot?

Snipesava - 2008-07-25, 10:12 AM I found a good way to beat Extreme mode without waiting for each individual wave. with firefox or internet explorer, open the game in multiple tabs, like about 4 or 5. start with the first tab. Place your gems, pick one, then move to the next tab and do the same there, moving on to the next tab each time. i've attempted this a few times but was unable to get very far because i've been busy. But from my experience it made it easier to try to beat it then just doing one at a time. Jared B - 2008-07-24, 09:43 PM king cola real name is Jordan. Jared B - 2008-07-24, 09:04 PM Hey king cola.

Jared B - 2008-07-24, 08:34 PM zero you need to beat the game on extreme to unlock sandbox mode. On sandbox mode you get 1000 lives and 100000 gold. zero - 2008-07-24, 04:53 PM how do you get to play sandbox mode?? Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 06:50 AM Oh and is it me or is air way too hard? I realize you put a Survival Mode. What would be great if you were to put a Survival Ground-Only mode: would help us build cool mazes without worrying about air! :) Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 05:05 AM Lol just watch the in-game clock rack up the time! Gabriel - 2008-07-24, 05:02 AM GUYS: I HAVE THE TOOL FOR YOUR WAVE NEEDS! I was very bothered by the slow wave times and the slow movement of creeps - especially since you can't build meanwhile. This is a tool to speed up the game (also speeds up everything in windows but clock, e.g. in word arrow flashes faster). Warning: don't put it up too high :p 8x speed is good to get wave over fast. Link: http://www.brothersoft.com/game-speed-adjuster-48443.html Just download a tool such as this InThrees - 2008-07-23, 01:03 AM I think I've figured out what is reducing the replay value for me, and making my attempts to beat extreme mode unattractive: 1. Take how long it takes to play each individual wave / level. 2. Multiply by completely random nature of gem drops. 3. Frequently get screwed by lack of good gems / combos far enough into a game to make starting over just not worth it. Games take too long to reconcile with the complete random nature of gem drops... especially on the harder modes where creeps may end up running several laps in a well built maze... only to get screwed the next air level (or even a regular land level) because you just got crappy gems for the past 5 rounds. havemercy - 2008-07-22, 03:23 PM Gi! how do you get to such high level in survival mode !!??? Telle - 2008-07-22, 11:19 AM Oh... and the kills don't transfer from lower gems to better gems when combined. They should. Zid Kazanagi - 2008-07-22, 05:05 AM i mean from gems and rocks Zid Kazanagi - 2008-07-22, 05:04 AM i have played survival mode and got up to level 96, but i can't find my name in the list of high scores. i just type my name as "Zid" and submit it. Anyway, I do enjoyed playing this game. i did draw a flower form of gems and rocks (^^,) Nacky - 2008-07-22, 03:44 AM My score is 68965 . Damn!! Guilherme L B - 2008-07-22, 02:06 AM Change a little bit the graphics, the monsters ground/flying, and the background =/ There some bugs too =/ Pat - 2008-07-21, 11:00 AM Only gripe I have is that when I finally place the third gem for a combo, I HAVE to combine them on that gem, while I think I should be able to on any of the gems that are in the conbination. Otherwise, I think its great. Not being able to delete gems is good as it really makes you think about where you place things. The idea of having ANY control over what gem you get completely destroys what makes this TD so much better than others. It's not a matter of balance, if you want to be able to pick what tower you lay down, go play any of the eleven billion TD games that lets you do that. If a major gameplay mechanic is a problem for you, maybe you just don't like the game and should play something else... Telle - 2008-07-21, 10:56 AM Few bug comments: 1. The jade description is hard to read (the scrolling doesn't work properly) 2. The Cooldown number doesn't always accurately reflect an opal effect. Suggestions: 1. Have more than 2 pictures for the enemy. 2. Have a box in the lower right that displays the current level's stats when the creeps are present. InThrees - 2008-07-19, 01:02 PM I really like the premise of the game but the one thing I really feel would benefit is a bit more control over the types of gems you place. I understand that too much control would ruin the balance, but some sort of method that allows the picking of at least one specific type and quality of gem every few levels would be great, or perhaps see what the 5 picks are so you can put them in more advantageous places. It kind of ruins it for me when I end up with a possible great air gem that hardly covers the path. =/ But regardless, very innovative. havemercy - 2008-07-19, 06:54 AM D wrote "I'm addicted to this game and only play survival but have never exceeded level 108.

Wryyyyyyyy - 2008-07-16, 07:39 AM yeah. maybe not more towers, btu just more combo possibilities ( im tired of getting stuck with some shitty chipped opal). also the ability to pick any of the placed gems to occupy the space of the combo-gem, not just the most recently placed. the ability to DELETE GEMS. this is much needed. if any of this seems to be too much trouble, at least make this open source and provide somewhere (or i will via here) for us to poast them. post the .swf (preferably decompiled) so we can tinker. your lover pete - 2008-07-16, 06:55 AM Wryyyy - agreed - I can't quit playing, love to get a 6-pack and play for 2-3 hours - but there are flaws, needs more towers, balanced power etc. Wryyyyyyyy - 2008-07-16, 03:16 AM this just keep making me sad... this game has so much potential. and you allready have a dedicated fanbase. do something with this! your lover, dio havemercy - 2008-07-15, 04:08 PM Is there a way to make the little man going faster in the game ? havemercy - 2008-07-15, 04:01 PM Is there a way to make the little man going faster in the game ? havemercy - 2008-07-15, 03:42 PM Is there a way to make the little man going faster in the game ?

Kniff - 2008-07-04, 04:03 PM Well its not bad for the beginning but GEm TD 3.1 from Bryvx is a lot of better. What I miss here: - no slates - no extra chance - really bad graphic ^^, and common always dwarfs as creeps? - the checkpoint layout is to short, you cant build some original mazes like the "Chalee Circle" or "Snakes and Ladders" - the models of the gems and rocks are kinda confusing, �t would be better if you make a quadrangular ground for them, this they you clearly can see if the maze is really closed battyaa - 2008-07-03, 06:55 PM is the leaderboard not working? ive placed a few times and dont see my name up????? conny - 2008-07-03, 09:59 AM Is the topas rarer too get?? I like neer get it... UmiRyuu - 2008-07-03, 05:42 AM I think the game was okay, i liked the thing of combining gems and so.. but i didnt like the fact you only get to choose one + others were rocks. Even more i didnt like the fact you had to create an "Obstacle Course" for the monsters using gemtowers and rocks. Otherwise the game was okay, and it was challenging also. 7.2/10 pete - 2008-07-03, 12:48 AM Great game, too good, I have an unhealthy relationship with it, but I need more - what about a sequel? Maybe vz-2 with more towers, lower memory usage to keep it from slowing down & let the user browse between big waves, longer track, different size/spacing of waves?
