This one is really cool. I got a lot out of being strategic. Or, there would be times where I'd let one branch go to block off another branch, or I'd let one almost kill me just to shoot its weak spot and force it to restart.

I'd love to see a multiplayer version of this, where three other players are the invading alien pipes and have to battle each other while avoiding the human.

Great game! I felt the recharge was a bit slow, but that is probably me just being selfish Haha! I thought there could of been more stuff in the background. I really liked that there is some advance strategy to the overall game.

This was fun. I agree with the person suggesting multiplayer.

Nice game, it would be fun to have power ups for your Tank.

Nice game. It's quite hard (especially the end lvl). Strategy is very imoprtant here and it's cool that you can't spam space and win the game :D

Really cool concept. Some issues for me:

1. The audio gets more glitchy over time, ending in a mess of clicks and stuff

2. You may want to make it less likely for each consecutive vertical piece built that the next one will also be vertical.

Fun game! Pretty difficult, loved it!

Really nice entry. Shooting the farthest back pipe has a nice strategy to it.

Fun and nice game, congrats!

nice, very creative and challenging shooter, great job :)

Super fun game! Well done! I found myself playing longer than intended. It did take me a while to figure out that I needed to destroy the green squares though. Lots of strategy and action involved in this one. Great job!

Overall it is a fun game.

darkavenger211 2015-12-16 02:27

One of the funner games I've played so far!

srakowski 2015-12-16 02:28

Wow this was a really fantastic game. One of my favorites this LD. Great Job :)

Awesome game. Really happy with the strategy of getting the shoots caught up in one another and saving up ammo to intentionally shoot specific points. Really nice.

qwetro 2015-12-16 02:47

Awesome, this is really fun, only sometimes I feel the bullet is stuck. Anyway, great game!

Cool mechanics =)

Very entertaining. Love the concept. Could use a double-tap to boost mechanism. Very much complete. Great game!

nice game good job

geeitsomelaldy 2015-12-17 12:20

Pretty good! Shooting the roots is a great mechanic.

leuthil 2015-12-17 13:38

This is a really great game. I'm not sure 100% why it was so fascinating to play but I think a lot of it had to do with the balance and strategy required. I really like the mechanic and it was very fun to play. I also liked the ending :) It was a bit too easy since you can blow up the bottom pipes with the tank but I guess it would've been way too hard otherwise. Overall a very solid entry! I enjoyed it :)

phocker 2015-12-19 04:31

hey that was really fun - great job

sorlok 2015-12-26 16:13

Neat idea, and clever mechanics. Gets really hard really quick, but controls well and is easy to understand.

Haven't seen this particular type of arcade-puzzle game before. Nicely done! The slow firing speed once your stash is gone is rather slow slow but I'm probably just doing it wrong. Very nice.

Very interesting concept! It has good potential for strategic choices.
