​the first impression was the explosion effect is really wonderful and i costed my money too quick but so excited then i found the planet use a smart view-set to built a interesting aesthetic -- great work! that's very fun and excited to find a good balance and fighting with these aerolites(also these starships---thats really cool!)

Thanks so much for playing guys! Really excited about how this game turned out

Cool graphics that remind me of early 90's computer games. I think it needs to communicate how money is earned and spent a little more obviously. I see numbers popping up but didn't feel like I always had a chance to figure out what they really represented. Nice little game.

@mike-cullingham Totally agreed, that is one of the things i think I failed at design wise was making it obvious about what is taking up money and how much. There is a red/green bar at the top that shows it, but it isn't obvious that's what it is for. Noted and will be fixed if we continue to develop the game

I like the missile management system you made. I bet if someone worked really hard they'd get maybe even 10 million as a score!

really fun! I enjoyed the pacing and tactical decision making. I liked the logical progression in enemies: slow and straight asteroids -> quicker ships that move a little, but still easy to track ships -> little fast ships (that I sucked at hitting :P ). Nice built in difficulty curve

I have to agree with @mike-cullingham about communicating the money better

Interesting, casual concept but with a strategy curve. I think with more feedback the feeling would be even better. Congratulations on the project.

Conceito interessante, casual mas com uma curva de estratégia. Acredito que com mais feedbacks o feeling seria ainda melhor. Parabéns pelo projeto. :flag_br:

Nice game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26D5qtoYgoQ
