Can't play it :(. When I try to launch it it says "There should be 'PC_UnConvention_Data'
folder next to the executable"

There is though. Something missing maybe?

Sorry the PC build .zip was messed up - it works fine now!

I really liked the graphics! The music was also really fun and upbeat, along with the SFX which made blowing things up very satisfying. I found the gameplay a little dry as I found I was just clicking on the red dots for a while repeatedly.

Love the pun-based name :) Nice work.

LOL...the weapon is literally an "un" conventional weapon. Very well played! I scored 330, lol.

One of the best entries I played today! I'm impressed!

Awesome game! I really enjoyed it. There was some good strategy involved in maximising your score while minimising your risk of losing. Also the choice of how to use your weapons made it quite interesting. I got 1450.

I get it, the Un-conventional weapon. Yep, I'm smart like that. Seriously, though, fun game. I love the games where I get to shoot an all-powerful (but really slow) laser down from the sky and drop atom bombs on people. I played like 5 times because it was so addicting and my best score was 870. Fun game!

Cool game. Can't really go wrong blasting places to craters from space.

Hahaha, ahh, very good, very droll. :) That's the most original use of theme I've seen so far.
I especially liked the planetary graphics, very reminiscent of Darwinia, and the music... very reminiscent of great tongue-in-cheek B-Movie music. Monsters Vs Aliens, or something.
I played a few times trying to see how to play better / optimally. Didn't quite figure out if it was better to wait for higher value sites to bomb - always seemed to just run out of bombs and laser charge eventually.
I wonder if you had planned for more scope of gameplay, like some way to regain bombs or regain laser charge. It was a bit frustrating having no ammo left and only able to run the timer down waiting for laser power. I may have missed something, ofc.
Also: is that a real online leaderboard?! Holy smokes!

Amazing game, great job, the music was just stunning. The graphics too!
