You guys rock!

sharp911 2014-12-09 02:21

Good job

2014-12-09 02:21

nice one ;)

interface 2014-12-09 03:06

Really cool. I'll try again now that I know I need a carrier to destroy the enemy mother ship :)

hazarman 2014-12-09 04:18

I cannot seem to open the file to play it after downloading :( looks nice though

p1x3lruckus 2014-12-09 04:22

ehh... it's too big for my monitor, can you make one that's either resizable or smaller? IDK I guess it's after submission. Looks good though and I wish I could play.

A complete strategy for Ludum Dare is cool.

I think you need to consider the situation. I waited a long time that I have accumulated 5000. My frigates are not allowed to leave even if they had money.
And I'm about two minutes looking at the accumulation of money, ship construction and destruction of the base.

But I liked the game. You are cool.

Very cool game. I like the style of the graphics.

domicuc 2014-12-09 10:01

Nice game. :) Also check our project -- P.S cute graphics x)

sirdorius 2014-12-09 10:10

Great entry guys! I beat the AI silly but I don't understand how to actually finish the match

HelkeGames 2014-12-09 10:13

Great game! I really loved to play it! Well done guys!

atomicvikings 2014-12-09 10:20

To finish the game you have to destroy the enemy factory. This is only possible with a carrier.

yarek 2014-12-09 10:44

Really cool game

sakergames 2014-12-09 10:53

Well done. :)

arg-games 2014-12-09 10:53

Great to see another strategy game entry! :)

Had fun playing it, even though the game was too big for my laptop and not resizable. Some interactions could use a little visual feedback (like a harvest-click on a rock). And the move-target for the units could be rendered on top of everything else, so it's always visible.

Had fun watching the Carrier crush everything! :D And love the trail particle effects. :)

Cheers

A really good game, maybe a bit slow, but I played on easy mode, so it is expected.
Really good mood.

This game looks great! I really need to get better at RTS games.

muramasa 2014-12-09 11:05

It's a beautiful game. I love these games. I like the atmosphere, and the theme, and the way things are. I would like to see a later version of this.
Overall this game is great, but in terms of innovation it lacks a little. It's the only thing! Because the game is lovely and I enjoyed playing it (on the easiest since I am the worst at playing games).

rougerogue 2014-12-09 11:33

This game is pretty damn fun to play! Music is great, graphics are great, gameplay is great... One thing I didn't like, though, is how, one you destroy the enemy harvesters, the game gets a bit too easy. Since the enemies can no longer generate money, they aren't able to create any more ships and the game becomes really dull and boring. You probably could have made it so that the money will slowly increase whether you have harvesters harvesting money or not. But nonetheless great game.

biscuitwizard 2014-12-09 13:19

Really great game! Suffered from vulnerability to the 'zerg rush' problem, but it was a great idea to make the carrier the only ship capable of taking down stations.

Good design, and I'm surprised you were able to flesh it out so completely in so little time!

atomicvikings 2014-12-09 15:25

@all: we fixed the zerg rush problem, we considered it gamebreaking, it is still possible, but now it requires more effort

One of my favourite entries so far. Very complete! 5 out of 5!

zompi 2014-12-09 22:06

Yaay, I won on easy mode :D I'm so awesome. And this game is awesome - full powered RTS. This is something I wouldn't expect.
I made a huge army and put enemy to his base. And then Carrier has arrived! Whoa, this game is awesome, I bow before you for it.

warboys 2014-12-10 03:18

Great game, seriously. Really fun stuff. The only issue I have (which is what a lot of others have been saying) is that only the Carrier can kill the base which means you have to wait ages even if you've already effectively won the game. Letting everyone attack the base would open up a lot more strategies

oranebeast 2014-12-11 06:39

Best. LD. Game. EVER!

drnick 2014-12-11 07:06

So interesting to see a RTS in LD!
It is also interesting to see that apparently all team members cooperated in the making of the game, even surprisingly there was more than one guy doing programming.

olligobber 2014-12-11 07:23

Awesome

aurel300 2014-12-11 14:01

Unplayable as well, too big for my screen.

boracho 2014-12-11 14:02

wowzers! this is one of the best entries I've seen this time round! art is awesome, sound is awesome, gameplay seems balanced. Are you sure you only did this over one weekend? Color me beyond impressed. My only complaint is it's not an overly clever play on the theme. Awesome work guys!

pjimmy 2014-12-11 14:12

nice little strategy game, well done

gins 2014-12-11 14:28

Wow that was really impressive, and I'm not really a fan of strategy games but this was really well made! Congratulations on this!

zkenshin 2014-12-11 14:30

Really fun game, great entry. :)

cabezotta 2014-12-11 16:01

Great entry! i really enjoy strategy games!

indie4fun 2014-12-11 18:10

It was hard to build the carrier, but I made it! Nice game, the music really fits in, reminds me of Starcraft :)

recursiveanomaly 2014-12-11 18:17

Love this game. It was a lot of fun ganging up my ships on them. Very polished.

crocantidepollo 2014-12-12 12:22

I built three carriers. There is no enemy now. Only space dust. Good.

mintarcade 2014-12-12 18:59

Nice entry. Graphics looks really solid and space is .. vast. Coll strategy, take me a while to figure out tactics, but overall it's a fine game.

sutivu 2014-12-12 20:47

Nice strategy game, balanced gameplay and awsome soundtrack :). The Hp barr of our own ships we will more recognizable if they were green tho :)

Lucariatias 2014-12-14 15:53

This was awesome. Loved the music, graphical style, and kept me occupied for ages. Kind of surprised you didn't do a GWT-based version, since you were using libgdx, but it doesn't detract from the game itself at all. With a bit more expansion (multiple galaxies or something?) and maybe online multiplayer, this could definitely become something sellable.

flouiz 2014-12-15 22:10

The graphics are really cool, the vessels do not really out of the ordinary but they are good. The game reminds me of the mobile game Mothership. Anyway on a weekend with all that has to do is good work :P

zayron 2014-12-18 16:01

This was a lot of fun!

rd127p77 2014-12-29 22:50

Great game
