I liked the minimalist style! please notify me when uploading.

Really nice game, though it took me a minute to really understand what to do! I Included it in part 1 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/v6qOf-i7cO4

Tutorial is a little bit useless, I do not understand how to play. But I like your minimalistic style of graphics.

Nice, definitely better with touch controls though!

Nice. I can see this becoming pretty fun in actual playre vs player (i played solo). Graphics are ok, the only thing i would do differently - is make a background a lot lighter. This grey color doesnt fit too well.

Great job! It'll be much better with AI or networked multiplayer, but the potential's definitely there.

Nice game.

Nice idea! I had a similar one for a two players shared screen soccer game on tablets... (not for Ludum Dare though, this was before)

The only real complain would be the graphics, very simplicistic and not too pleasant, but the rest is very well made!

It's not intuitive to play and rather difficult to control the units on a touch screen. Especially for two player on one small tablet screen.

But it seems to be a nice game idea. There are way too few multiplayer games in here. So, overall I like it. It has potential. Well done.

sirdorius 2014-12-09 11:21

I agree it is still too hard to control. I will be improving the touch and mouse controls in a post ludum version.

Neat! I only tried the hot seat mode, but I like the idea. Reminds me of a top-down version of Cannon Brawl.

technomancer 2014-12-10 21:13

it's a great work for 72 hours

slothmachine 2014-12-11 16:45

Yes! I like local multiplayers on a tablet! Fine work for 72h. Great job!

awesome idea, looks like a really fun game. SOund is also amazing. Unfortunately controls are not correctly working on my fairphone ;( Maybe the screen is to small

strong99 2014-12-15 19:38

Great, tower madness, it'll definitely be better with touch controls!

halleflux 2014-12-15 20:13

This would work well on a mobile device, especially if you could make it so two people could play at once on the same screen.

orangeez 2014-12-20 18:25

The biggest problem here is the lack of a single player - otherwise this looks like a fun game to play. Strangely, I got an odd satisfaction from attacking and defending myself; good job!

01rafael 2014-12-20 19:15

Well. I'm not sure about gamplay. But asteroids sounds attractive!

tyruspeace 2014-12-20 19:34

Hotseat mode switched back and forth so quickly that I had a tough time doing much in it, but real time mode seems really cool!

Nice concept, and well implemented gameplay. I do wonder about some UI choices, like putting the resources across the middle line and having the health of the commander specifically be kind of tiny and hard to see.

Well done! This seems like it'd be a blast on an actual touch device.

Extremely addicting!

I like the idea but it must be introduced in simpler way.

pht59x 2014-12-29 15:52

A single player mode would have been nice.
