This is the hero Ludum Dare deserves

game was ok... but the FRYING SAUCER was awesome

It doesn't follow the theme at all, but that doesn't stop it from being fun. The difficulty ramps up nicely. Loved blasting that biggie size fries.

jzludum 2013-04-29 04:34

The first think I thought when booting up the game was. "wow, this game could use some french fry bosses".
Did not dissapoint.

Funniest game I played so far, congrats!

neverautomatic 2013-04-29 05:34

Great game! I thought the flying fries shooting fries was a nice touch. haha

cjacobwade 2013-04-29 05:39

Reminds me of Luftrausers!

Hands down the best potato game I've played so far, and that's really saying something on account of how many damn potato games there are.

All around nice entry. Very solid.

lpcustom 2013-04-29 07:55

Thanks for all the great comments. I'm trying to get around to rating all of your games as well!

SO MANY POTATOES IN LD LOL

Haha, very cool Asteroid/Lunar Lander mashup. Good job man!

rujomarco 2013-04-29 10:43

i want potatoes now

follett 2013-04-29 12:16

That was ridiculous! I LOVE IT!

tiago-ling 2013-04-29 12:26

Very nice game! A little too hard for my untrained fingers though! The potato themed foes were very cool!

Very nice game! A little too hard for my untrained fingers though! The potato themed foes were very cool! Very nice music, definitely gonna check Muse Score!

Kill potatoes...
Kill potatoes...

Good work

So, astroids + lunar lander actually works quite well and I enjoyed it. Controls felt good. The game was smooth and felt good to the touch. I think the balance would have been improved by adding a little bit of missile command (lose points when enemies hit the surface.)

psenfilip 2013-04-29 18:44

Haha Potatoes everywhere!
I read Lunar lander but I had to go hard crash my ship in order to believe it. Really good mash-up... works great.

fuzzywuzzie 2013-04-29 18:46

Really great mashup of asteroids and lunar lander! Difficult, but fun!

purplemoustache 2013-04-29 21:10

You passed the secret LD26 test: the theme wasn't Minimalism. It was Potatos ALL ALONG!

Good job!

lpcustom 2013-04-30 02:55

netguy204, I actually started adding that in, but I didn't put a condition for game over on it or show the "health" of the base on the screen.

cagedrat 2013-04-30 06:07

POTATOES... IN... SPAAAACE!!

nilstastic 2013-04-30 12:30

nice game! A little too hard, I crashed a lot :)

mortl8324 2013-04-30 13:49

Very funny game. Felt a bit repetitive after awhile, and I didn't feel any incentive too keep trying. But otherwise, really funny game!

goerp 2013-04-30 19:33

I never had the need to refuel. I always died before I had to refuel.
Played well and looked good.
You missed the theme I think. You should have come up with a silly reason why it would be Miminalism (like I did).

junt74 2013-05-01 01:33

Nice graphics, sounds, and potatoooooo!
I would be happier if I could check how much point I've got score when the game is over.

tyro 2013-05-01 02:14

I really enjoyed this one. Flying around and blasting cosmic spuds is an unrivaled experience.

tcstyle 2013-05-03 20:45

Interesting take on asteroid to add gravity (and potatoes). The controls are too sensitive.

smilingcat 2013-05-07 02:33

Adding gravity to your basic asteroids game makes it a bit more interesting. Good job!

korda 2013-05-07 11:46

Congratulations on your first game! You have done a good job. Potatoes should have been the theme.
