Cool game only what i was missing in this game is some events / powerups that would make gameplay more fun

lol, that was pretty simple but fun. I could have used a stronger visual clue when a server is in bad shape - maybe a spark when it is red, and a puff of smoke when it goes down. Fun little game though!

nice game, got to reach 1000 score

yeah I agree with @indiemoose that the game-play got a bit boring after a while, had to quit around 1000 points cos it was a bit too easy for me. Also, I feel like some-kind of music in the background would have helped out a ton

Nice game. I wonder if a game over once you've reached 0% stability (instead of all servers being fully offline) would've made it that much harder for the people above 😛

@indiemoose I wanted to add a bit more like you suggested but I ran out of time. I was almost able to add a new enemy (a virus entity) but like I said 6 PM came around rather quickly.

@pbg I agree, I hoped that the sound cue that plays when a server begins to crash would help, but that can only do so much. Thanks for playing!

@skahd I always love it when people tell me what scores they got while playing my games, thanks for sharing!

@fonkin I had a feeling it might get repetitive after a little bit, but I didn't really have time to address it. I'm also not the best musician, but maybe I'll give LMMS another shot sometime. Music is always a side thought for me, but I get your point. Anyways, thanks for sticking it out to 1000 points and sharing your score!

@itsmebutsolo I actually did have the game over condition function that way originally, but I scrapped it in favor of triggering a game over when the stability and number of servers reached 0. It felt more fair to me.

Nice little game! Like the art and palette choice :heart: Sometimes, the space bar didn't work for me when standing diagonally to a server. Got over 700 score and quit after realizing the less the servers are left, the easier the game becomes, because you don't need to run too much around anymore :slight_smile: Anyway, good entry!

The game gets easier as time goes on, when half of the servers go down, suddenly the game is trivialy easy.
