Simple but funny tower defense. Good work!

This could be quite addicting on a tablet. Needs more types of guns!

Good for a quick bit of entertainment, but once I had about half a dozen laser towers I seemed to be pretty well protected permanently.

A pretty fun little entry! You should change the name of your link from "Windows" to "Web" or something similar, since making it seem as if it is just a Windows executable will turn off many potential players.

Lasers are key to early survival. For those of you who think you have permanent protection: just wait.

Not a whole lot of depth to the system, but well-balanced. Probably could use a timer or some way of comparing your progress with other runs, since you're pretty much guaranteed to get smashed in the end.

I like the concept of tower defense in space. Once I got clued into the lasers bring better than the gun, I started using that and the game became a little on the too easy side, but still kinda fun building stuff and blowing up rocks and getting more resources. Then after a while it just gets insanely difficult at some point for reasons I could not figure out and I die.

I like the arcade-style tower shooter idea. The gameplay seems pretty rough around the edges, though. It could really use some sound effects, especially for the lasers and the blowing stuff up.
