Hey - not sure if you know but you have no game link?

paulo-augusto 2018-08-15 02:55

@paulo-augusto thank you! @scott-purcival Can u see the game download link now?

Really enjoyed the game. But it needed some more feedback, I couldn't figure out which abilities were effective and where to use them.

@flubz thanks so much for the feedback! i agree it needs more feedback! will improve on the next game we create

@ryanjs Cheers my dude, I played it on stream too, [in case you missed it.](https://www.twitch.tv/majorflubz/video/297420192?t=04h10m01s) :sweat_smile: (Around 4h 10m)

You commend my game, so i commend yours. Love your idea and i really hope to see more information interface in your game.

Pretty fun game! I like the different sound effects for all the different things you can do. Nice job!

Nice game, I liked that it has a sound effect for each disaster. In my opinion, the UI needs to be worked on as in its current state it's pretty hard to read: I didn't uderstand right away the bar going up which was representing my ressources and I didn't saw the fact you had to choose a continent either (btw where is Europe? :o). I liked the music and the gameplay which was pretty relaxing, good job :)

heheh, this is quite an interesting idea. I think my only criticism is that the music puts forward quite a somber and chilled mood, yet the sound effects and news are very comedy! Nice entry though. Go team of two!

Interesting idea, but it really needs some more explanation as to what do the buttons do. But looks good and is a challenge :)

Nice work, I found it very funny and challenging. The audio clips for each attack were great!

For improved feature thoughts: I would have liked to see the "CurrentPopulation" update when I had a country selected to reflect the damage I was doing, without clicking away and back, as well as an auto-rotate and focus feature with the camera for selecting another country.

All in all, I had a good time playing this, with some laughs. Nice job!

Funny game with an interesting concept! It looks nice and makes good use of the theme. I enjoy the music but it kind of clashes with the mood of the game. I'd like to see some kind of score mechanism (ie: a timer for how long you keep the planet's population under control) and also I think your attack should be directed at the currently selected country on the globe rather than the dropdown menu in the attack window. Good job on this!

Found it hard to figure out if I was doing the right thing, but overall heartily encourage wholesale destruction of planets B-)
