This is the best game I've seen so far, You did an amazing job. The game concept is very funny, and I loled on the dialogues between the commander and player.
Congrats.

Congrats.
Nice and well balanced! I played through a few levels, some of which seemed impossible at first but managed them after a few tries. It'd be nice to be able to skip the dialogue without having to open the menu though.
Thanks for the feedback, guys, and then quite positive feedback :-)
@Norgg: there are actually a few levels that actually are impossible to solve (like a very flat terrain with only missiles which you can't reach with your bomb). And yeah, I figured that one with the "debriefing" out by now. Will change it in the next version and release it in three weeks.
Very addictive, liked the randomness of the levels.
hey rnlf, afaik, to run the linux build you can use "file /path/to/the/file.x86" but that build was generated by unity, and I don't have a linux installed to test it
You can try my game through the web link, though.
I hope you like.
Although the terrain is simply seeded by random values, in most cases it makes a fun level to play! Loved the rockets flying up and just spinning in the air. Great performance speed too, the particles emitted nicely.
My only suggestion is to make the dialogs skippable. We get the idea after the 1st / 2nd turn, after that though it seems to drag the game.
This was really cute little game you got it was funny and fun to play.
I really like the dialogue's humor. It's really fun and simple.
Fun game! I liked how the dialogs were capitalized, as if the aliens were shouting to eachother :P. Most levels were solvable, only some just seemed impossible. Had a good time.
I guess it would be better as a chain reaction game, with more destroyable thing and smaller explosions. The idea is good tho. Kepp up the good work!
Ha! Nice game, I liked it! I REALLY liked bouncing the ship against the edge of the screen.
"Sir, what about the president?"
*Bounce**Bounce**Bounce* Wheee!
"Sir?"
Some thoughts:
- If you win a stage and try a new one, your score should carry over - so you can see how big of a streak you can make
- If you made multiple random chats for the end of the level, this game's re-playability would go waaay up.
Thanks for the fun game!
*Bounce*
This is a brilliant game, I swear I spent half an hour just trying random seeds to kill the president :L
Random-ness like this is great for a game like this (even if there are uncompleteable levels)
That was hilarious, I loved the dialogue :D
Rothens: yeah, that's what I wanted in the beginning, but somehow I figured this version was more fun. One distant future release will probably be customizable.
caranha: Thanks for your input, I will definitely add those two things in the next release. Glad you liked the bouncing, that was one of the last things I added just for fun :D
Thanks to everyone who commented, it's a great feeling to get so much positive feedback on your first submission!
Awesome game! This is so cool! Nice sounds, good graphics, funny story! Very humorous! The best LD game I have played this go round so far! Keep it up! I found that if you type the seed as 42, then directly fire, it wins. Hahaha.
@MrBlade: 42 doesn't do this for me. Maybe the random number generator works differently on different JVM versions or something. :-(
One of the best entries I've seen. Great dialog, cool idea, and fun gameplay. A greater variety of explosives in the levels could push this to the next level.
This was funny! I liked the music, the game mechanics.. only that chat on the end of every level bothers me a little :-) Also tried seed 42... :-)
It's like an explosion of pixels from space.
Funny backstory..
Awesome job, relly fits the theme. difficult but not impossible.
End-of-round dialogue got a bit monotonous, but otherwise a very unique and addictive game! Great work :)
Interesting game. I really like the concept.
Funny idea and good execution. The gameplay is very satisfying, even though you're just watching 90% of the time. You should possibly have considered using some kind of grass texture instead of that aggressive light green though.. :)
Really great work! This was really compelling and I spent a lot longer (re)playing this than most other games I've reviewed so far! I can be a bit long winded getting from one level to the next, so after I'd seen the dialogue a couple of times I was just hitting escape to skip it and restarting from the menu - it'd be nice if you sped up that process a bit, oh and also allowed your score to roll over into the next level. Overall though great job!!
I loved it! The sound, graphics, gameplay, all fit perfectly. I only stopped playing because I want to try other games as well :D
I would have been nice if the win/lose text at the end of each level could be skipped. The text is funny, but not 10 times in a row ;)
Really fun game! Some levels were easy, but others really needed precision. Fun dialogue between the commander and the ship as well. And the animations for the different explosives are awesome.
Very nice gameplay! Is there an "end"? Good work.
Nope, there's no end, just randomly generated levels. I might think of some kind of arcade mode with high score for the post-compo version I'm working on.
Love what you did with the theme. And I really like how the rockets behave and how you can influence their movement. I really had fun playing this game. Kudos to you!
Best game I have played so far! Very addictive! Loled at dialogues xD
Thanks man, I appreciate your effort in playing it.
Wow, I really like this concept! The game is pretty difficult in some cases, but I like challenge. The music is nice, more variation in the dirt texture would have been great, but the destructible terrain is awesome. I had a lot of fun playing this! :D
Very nice that the levels are random. Good chain reaction game!
I've loved the random level generator! But i think the dialogs get a little bit repetitive. But really good job!
If you have time, please consider rating my game! I would really appreciate it. :)
I loved it! Very fun and a great use of the theme!
Nice game ! Catchy song, really cool gameplay, funny ! Great job !
I liked it, but (as others have mentioned) I'd love to have a reset button or something so I can skip dialogue :)
Aaaaand I just found it in the menu. Nevermind! Haha
Yeah! Game is very funny!
Awesome game!
The idea is great and well executed.
The game is fun to play and I like the particle efects!
It's quite hard to win, since it feels like it would be a matter of luck, once you dropped the bomb, but thats ok.
Great work, keep it on :)
Lots of fun! Hilarious premise and dialogue, I laughed pretty hard when I failed my first mission.
Funny and addictive game!
Well done!
