No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

Ok time waster, don't expect anything more. EDIT: the update was pretty bad, nothing but more soulless grinding, original point reinforced.

Good idea, but very bad balancing - mostly ends up tedious and grindy. Easy difficulty is not easy, because almost everything is still a bullet/bomb/rocket sink. And when the map introduced just huge constructions (with nothing to them just being even bigger damage sinks)..Nah.
