Great idea, love the cards and having to build the bridges. Wish you could upgrade your towers, different types of weapons. Sounds would have been nice..

Crashed without XNA installed, bummer. :(

Game makes sense and works right. Being quick seems more important than strategy. Bridges being unbreakable and the distance along the graph being irrelevant means there's not much subtlety with them. One card tower is plenty to get more cards than you need; the problem is that you're at the whim of the dice with those.

Once, it wouldn't accept my clicks on the third play.

Hard mode is very hard! A lot of it is the luck of your first few cards. I did want to keep playing it. :)

It crashed upon opening the file. :(

Well, that's pretty neat, but a bit too luck based at least on the hardest difficulty. I'm also still confused as to how the finances work. In the screenshot right there, how much does a gold tower actually cost? It's not free because you can't build it without any money. Is this just a bug?
I think the towers lack feedback in general. It's kinda hard to keep track of how much damage you're dealing to the ships or the HQ. Some elements of this reminded me of Plants VS Zombies. If you decide to develop this further, I'd look at PvZ for some pointers.

I like the idea of the game, it is a good mixing of genres.

I REALLY like this. Sounds and more of a challenge / more levels would make it pretty amazing. KEEP GOING!!!

Endurion

Quite good. Beat easy and went on to very hard. Lost quite fast :)
Now add sound and a secret instant win button for me. Thanks!

Crashed for me as well, but I gave you a rating for community.
