"Excellent!"

Great game...reminds me of Phage wars plus defensive upgrades. I enjoyed it a lot. My only critique would be to add the ability to select more than one planet or all planets. It got a little tiresome towards the end having to click my planet, their planet, my planet, their planet, etc...
About the difficulty: My problem was that I only did one ship upgrade the first three levels (because I didn't need them). On the fourth or fifth level, it did start to get really tough. That is when I noticed the ship upgrades stay with you. So, I stayed on the same level until I had all ship upgrades before proceeding. It still got pretty tough by the end. If you don't get a good foothold right away, the level gets pretty tough pretty quick.

Yeah, but aside from getting a foothold early on, it is also important to have a strategy... like knowing when it is the best time to attack and defend.

Regarding your suggetions to improve the game, i'm not really sure if i can do that at the moment since the game has already been sponsored. I have to ask the sponsor first if it's okay with them.

First of all, to Legenden-Gotland...Click on the Save Slot, then click Enter.

Now, Septenary, Congrats on getting this finished. I believe has turned out to be a fine game indeed and I think you should be proud. Other than that, I believe Caedo summed things up quite nicely in his review:

"...I think this is "too good" to be truly appreciated on Newgrounds, as in, TT:A has become such a great and complex game, that the masses of 12-y/o's will 0-bomb it because they are either jealous of your ability, frustrated with their inability to beat it due to the difficulty, or they got so tied up with one little issue, that it caused them to hate the game as a whole for no legitimate reason.
I truly look forward to any games you make in the future, as I have since I played TT;T...whether they are for Newgrounds or otherwise. You have made a very good game here; do not let the scores convince you otherwise."

One of the better games on this site. I can't believe it doesn't have a higher score. Too bad many of the Newgrounds kids have ADD. There is a small learning curve to the controls, but by the end of the tutorial level I pretty much had it down. You can pretty much fly by using the lightning once or twice to get off the ground and then the fire for propulsion, then back to the lightning bolt, back to the fire, etc.
It was a very unique concept, well presented, and lots of fun.
My one gripe is that I got pushed through the floor quite a bit (both in the arena and on the top of the 4th or 5th level). When this happed, I would be in a different layer and would fall to my death.
