Hi, what gamemaker version did you use? I tried importing it in gamemaker studio and it said the file seems to be corrupt. I hope you can get a exe up soon!

aeveis 2014-08-27 03:57

Oh, I'm on Window 8 64bit if that helps.

I'm also having issues trying to get the game running. I have GameMaker: Studio installed, but do we need 8.1 or an earlier version?

ninjascript 2014-08-27 04:24

I don't have GameMaker installed, is there any way to get a standalone version?

Hey! It's probably best to get a web build or a .exe out cause I want to try out your entry but I don't have GameMaker either.

A Windows executable would be fine, no GameMaker here.

I use GM 8

the_flash_point 2014-08-28 21:31

i fixed it! now you can dowload a .exe file.
Google drive was giving me trouble so i use dropbox now XD.

A simple idea but pretty fun. Some weird things happen if you build structures right on top of asteroids! Sometimes, asteroids spawn right on top of Earth too. Good job!

Took some time to work out what to actually do (and there were a few bugs like an asteroid spawning on top of a wall and getting stuck) but good take on the theme.

the_flash_point 2014-08-28 22:21

thanks! Im working on a new version with less bugs but its post compo.

Things were a bit too unclear as to what is happening in this game. I read the description as well, but overall I couldn't quite make heads or tails out of what I was supposed to be doing. I did blow up some asteroids and build stuff, but not sure why! Then my planet exploded.

lord-bobyness 2014-08-29 02:31

Can't say I cared for it that much, I think in in large part because of the issue with asteroids spawning in or near the planet.

scipio-xaos 2014-08-29 02:56

Interesting.. Not really sure what I was supposed to do.. that and when I noticed astroids spawning on my planet it became a little tiresome.. additionally.. I couldn't use the third and fourth item.. only the first for some reason.

the_flash_point 2014-08-29 03:11

There are economic factor displaying at the top left corner on the screen,you probably hadnt enough to build the other ones

shadowstryker 2014-08-29 03:14

It was a pretty good game in my opinion. It kept me occupied for a while and I enjoyed playing it, so I guess that's what is important when making a game. Good job man.

tehskull 2014-08-29 03:17

I'm not really sure what's going on at all in this game. It really needs instructions.

danidre14 2014-08-29 03:26

Really interesting, graphics and all!

moomoo112 2014-08-29 20:53

Asteroids spawning on the earth made it hard to protect it..

sk16games 2014-08-30 01:04

When I just saw the thumbnail I thought it would be a game just like mine :P but it was actually a pretty cool little (different) game :D But I didn't see the "connected worlds" thing though... Nice soundtrack!

druid 2014-08-30 19:32

Yay! Another game maker fellow! :D Anyway.. Pretty good game! I really like those economic based games!

kibertoad 2014-08-31 14:29

Window of opportunity to shoot down asteroids feels to be too short, you can't really build and protect at the same. Also wish building had their names and stats in-game somewhere. Overall a decent game that has lots of potential for improvement, hopefully there will be a post-LD follow-up.

vividhelix 2014-09-01 20:34

Couldn't really figure out the gameplay, but I did enjoy the music :) Maybe a few more details would help?

robot-souls-games 2014-09-04 22:39

Asteroids sometimes spawn too close to the earth, making it impossible to do anything.

Nice graphics and gameplay
