It's nice
That was fun once I got the hang of drive-by terraforming! :) I think you should mention in the instructions that you need to drive around to recharge the terraform beam because I didn't understand that at first.
Cool game! I had fun zipping around the planets.
I liked the fact that you show me in which direction to shoot so I can kill enemies without having to see them on my screen. Job well done :)
Controls are a bit difficult but the idea is good
Fun! I think it's important to note that moving faster charges your beam. Took me a minute to figure that out. Nicely done, though.
Innovative concept, I like the progression. Good job!
Nice idea. I felt it was a little difficult to control and could have been made easier by eliminating the back button to stop, and instead having to hold and release the forward button, for moving and stopping respectively. Good job.
Probably not just me but I think this game is actiualyl really good! Concept is amazing though the controls can be tricky at times :/// Good work tho.
10/10 for artwork btwww
Interesting game. The beam being recharged by moving around is a nice idea. I liked how you incorporated the theme into your game.
My only critique would be that it should be more clear how the terraforming beam works. It wasn't until I read the comments that I was able to figure out that it needed to be recharged by moving.
I like the idea, nice start! The terraforming is easy, but it's challenging to destroy the enemies. I think the game would greatly benefit from some sound effects.
Interesting concept. Would be fun to see game with same theme but more towards the stuff where you need to find right clients as well for your business instead of random shooting.
+ Nice concept and gameplay.
+ Cool graphics.
- Hard controls.
Nice idea. The only think that was jarring for me was the lack of collisions - they would make terraforming more challenging (and fun!). Otherwise, cool :).
It's good but I'm kinda missing sounds. Same problem like my game, it feels to repetitive too fast
Had fun playing your game :D cool idea i like it
Honestly, I think this one looked better on paper. It's a cool idea, and I think it has real potential, but I found it just became a grind after a while. I would enter a level, spend 30 seconds sniping turrets I couldn't see (not that fighting them up close is satisfying - it would be were it not for this game's unfortunate paucity of explosions), then spin in circles for a while trying to pin down planets with my mouse, then spend the money on more dakka. Seriously, the laser upgrade was the only one I found appealing. Drive-by terraforming means you never need to came about battery capacity, and I never felt a need to go faster. I think this would have been better with mechanics that forced you to deal with the planets and enemies at the same time instead of focusing on the enemies and then farming planets for a while.
Great game! Been playing it for some time. Something I'd like is that I don't have to start from the beginning when I lose, but I really like the concept.
I like the mechanic, but it is a bit slow too play, and then all of a sudden gets very difficult. Also just as a small note, some people (like me ;, with a mac book pro) ) do not have a right mouse button, so think about offering an alternative.
I ended up playing this for ages and got to wave 38. Good job!
Works well, nice setup. As others mentioned, a quick mention that movement charges the terraform beam would be good. Nice.
Too difficult on a macbook where right click is double tap... would have been easier with spacebar for shooting.
