I found this game to be fun. Having the informational box is really nice to have too. Sometimes I wanted to do things faster and the game would not keep up with my clicking speed though. However it was a very good game, well balanced, liked being able to upgrade, however I'm still not sure exactly what gave you the upgrades. (I would like to know and since I would I think other players would too.)
Ai was a little weak. I would like to see different difficulties added in the future.
I can't play it because my screen is a bit too small (can't see the menu) ! Sounds like galcon but with "upgrades".
Neat. Somehow it got pretty longish in between. I moved all my ships to destroy the enemies fleet and then resorted to building up. A speedup option would be a nice addition.
Love the weather effects!
It was cool, however I had to click many times to do anything.
This is a neat little idea that you should keep working on. I had a decent amount of fun with it.
Something very strange is going on here with my mouse, the input lags badly. I'll not vote on it so that it doesn't affect your score. I did like what I could see, it was just impossible to control! Sorry! =)
overall I liked the game, even though I suck at it.
however whilst bug fixes are usually more or less ok if you have crashing issues or the game wont run for some people, when you get to the point where you are tweaking AI and other stuff after the deadline I think its going a bit too far. its supposed to be 48 hours and not 73 ;)
I'd keep a link to the updated version in your description but have the main links that go to the original version :)
This is nice... quite nice. I've probably played this one longer than any other game so far.
One of the most addicting entries I've played. The UI was a bit difficult to learn, I disliked the way you didn't select ships but islands instead. I had very much fun defeating the computer player!
Looks like a fair fight to me: http://imgur.com/JmKlN.png
One of the best games here. I enjoyed this a lot.
This is really good all around! There are definitely bugs (my first game the only thing I could unlock was the super battleship, but the second was much more interesting), and the clicking is horribly unresponsive, but aside from that it's really unique and pretty easy to understand and fun and whatever else would make it good.
One of the cooler surprises was that you actually took time to throw in random bonuses like the balloon and what I assume were evil air pirates (they hit the enemy island, lucky for me).
Holy frigging pirates! The AI is just plain unfair, they go wherever I select jsut after I do it, and I can't cancel my ships travel routes...
Other than that, really fun game, wish it had a tutorial like mode.
Very well done - I played for quite a while. The only issue I really have with this is that there is just one strategy that can win against the computer from what I can tell. At the very beginning, take as many places as possible, then spam one population, make one ship to defend, and once you unlock the medical center just build it everywhere. By the time you have 500+ population on 4 planets there is no way to lose.
