Hi there. Nice looking and playing game you've made! I found it fairly easy to reach a state where all orbits were full and I could deploy no more towers... I then lost with a score of 912 once the attack size became crazy-big! Good job, would like to see more, multiple planets, tower/orbitals upgrades etc.

Agrees with @mrexcessive.
I would like to have been able to replace/upgrade defender orbs, and maybe buy more orbits or something like that.
But very nice game :)

Overall, I liked this game!

Good:
* Nice details on graphics, loved the background star effects.
* Ok music, ok sound.
* Nice game idea and it's fun to play.

Bad:
* It's a little short and after a while I'm unable to buy more "planet" defenders and game ends with overwhelming amount of enemies;
* It needs some more balance on prices/damage and this alike.
* Weak theme usage

Nice Game! I likt Tower Defence Games and the idea with "rings" and moving towers is nice. I would have liked to see some upgrades or a remaining Lives counter.
The Music line got me really annoyed after some runs.

Really fun, but it's all over too quickly because I can't remove or upgrade the defences. Please add more levels or something to increase the life of the game.

Pretty fun! But i agree with @mrexcessive and others, when the orbits are full, there's nothing more to do. Nice concept though.

I love the concept of a TD with orbits, maybe you can create a post-compo version with a slightly better balance and duration.

Nice tower defense, I liked the idea of using orbits as places to set barriers. Music repeats itself a little, but it matches with space theme. Good work.

Thank you all for your comments :)

Yes, unfortunately we had a snag and lost one of our programmers and his task had to be done be the others so we ended up cutting much from the gameplay we wanted to do.

Very addivtive game. Great work!

I liked the idea of having tower defence withn otwer that moves on orbits. Audio was generally positive(4/5). Graphics were ok(3/5). I didnt really have fun from playing tbh.

I like the idea a lot, it had potential. Since you mentioned team problems and running out of time, from my own experience with programming projects: maybe you are just too many people. You'd be amazed what can be done with just two people (or even one, for that matter).

I really enjoid the game, just sad that we place all our "turrets" so fast.

lotusgame 2014-09-10 19:26

909 points ! Interesting concept ! A very nice and polished entry :)

Nice tower defense game. Pretty graphics. Music was a little bit repetative.

igoramendola 2014-09-11 17:08

Cool game and it's very nice considering that you hadn't enough time to do more things. It would be interesting a post-compo version with more stuffs! :D
My best is 997.

paveldlouhy 2014-09-11 19:34

Never made more than 999. :) Nice and pretty addictive game. Good job.

Nice idea and graphics,

okmmjyygv 2014-09-11 21:53

Nice entry!

ragepaint 2014-09-12 03:30

Score: 999

Wish I could put more planets in orbit, or delete ones to make room for different ones.

Good entry

Really cool take on the tower defense. The orbits add a nice depth to the mechanics. Makes a cool idea to expand on. Nice work!
