This could've been any theme, really. Just put another thing under the shield. It's also waaay too slow, at least for the first 10 'levels' (Didn't try more than that.)

Do like the graphics, but this game really is waaay slow. :o

Yeah...starts off too slow - I didn't stick around too long (Feeling impatient this evening, apologies...).

Cosine

I spent about an entire minute waiting for the ships to come. :P

I liked the graphics

The shield depletion is wayy too slow, as is the rate of fire of the player's weapon. It felt like the game was trying to be more "strategy" given the pacing, but "action" pacing would suit this better.

Animations could have added more life to the screen. SFX and Music definitely would have improved the user's engagement.

It has a nice clean look, but the gameplay was similarly sparse--and not in a good way. It's more a seed of a game than a full game.

I was unable to locate the sourcecode for your game.

Endurion

Your randomizer is weird. Sometimes I had to wait half a minute for another plane to appear.
Also not particular islandy.

Entar

Decent little game, but it's a bit slow, especially at the beginning, and rather simple. Also, the bombs are pretty hard to hit (possibly intended?)

jovoc

way to slow. And the bombs did almost negligible damage.

Potential to be a nice missile-command style game. Definitely playable but needs a lot of tuning.

Just something as simple as making there be 100x as many planes might have made this an awesome game.

Oh wow. I took like 3 centuries for the next plane to show up. I thought I broke it.

This doesn't really suit the theme well and it needs audio badly.

2000 points and quited, I get just too bored.
