Simple and fun, albeit short. The refresh to comply with the theme gave me a good chuckle.

Too bad you don't have sound, I have the feeling the game would feel much better with sound. Loved the smooth scrolling, and the idea is also pretty good :) The 102% bug was actually pretty comical :P

Haha, great game. I didn't understand it straight away. I can't tell how to tactically do better. I will admit I played it a few times out of curiosity. I love the aesthetic overall.

Simple yet fun

@mortl8324 Hint: The missile's impact is AoE (and not actually visible), and the towers provide extra hit points for turrets. Try to make the most of your only shot ;)

Would be nice to have some sound.. Otherwise nice one!

fun, played it a quite a few times and even blew up my own mother ship! >.< hahaha!. best score I got was 60%

Pretty fun, but I agree with the other commenters that it really needs some sound. Also the missile seems to sometimes take out a building I didn't actually aim for.

Love the art style!

Nice graphics! Gameplay could´ve been less linear, but I think it´s great nonetheless :) good job!

The concept is good, but i could have been way better with more levels. Nice work

sticks to the theme and I really like the look of the invasion (*boom*). I wish there were more levels, but hey, you only got one, right?

junongx 2013-12-17 11:20

@finefin Yes. I didn't even have time to deal with sounds.

s73ph4n 2013-12-18 22:28

It has potential. A pity you didn't have time to add sound. Congrats :)

Really good effort for 12 hours. Works great in chrome, very smooth scrolling. Bullets are well done. Fun!

I liked the concept, and the stats haha. Couldn't tell which bit was hit, as some of the triangles went down when I was aiming for the globe thing with three turrets.

It didn't seem to matter what I did, the same destruction would bring about a wildly different result each time.

I really liked the art style in this, minimal but still very expressive. Having to refresh to try again is annoying, the theme shouldn't make the game annoying it should inspire. Also, it was too zoomed in, the first several attempts were just me flying around to get my bearings (which led me to accidentally destroy my own people).

Nice idea, I love the art - shame there's no sound.
