Aw yea! I think we had the same idea in a different way: blasting asteroids!

Very shiny game, nice work! I chuckled what the other cannons do if you go rogue. And I did not expect... what was coming! :)

Pretty basic game, but kept me entertained for a few minutes and tired out my blasting fingers. Definitely fits the theme once you manage to break through the first meteor. Seems like you can't do anything to stop the second one.

Interesting game. i loved the plot twist!

I thought I won - and then I was very very wrong.

Woah, so many people made a game about shooting asteroids... Including me!

Cool! First UE game I've played this jam. The scale of this is breathtaking. I love all the details you have in here; the laser blasts, sounds, atmospheric effects. Are those volumetric clouds? Any UE widget use def gets an upvote, and you've got at least two! Great use of theme and nice big download. ;) Thanks for the game!

Simple idea, good execution. Nice game.

The game is interesting, the theme is immediately visible. But I didn’t quite understand why when the asteroid’s health almost reached the end, the inscription Game over is displayed? But mostly a great game).

Nice twist. My fingers went sore ahah

This game is gorgeous. Fabulous graphics. The second, unkillable meteor appearing with the parting of the clouds was an awesome effect. When it comes to gameplay, though, I do want a little more to sink my teeth into than just clicking as fast as I can, even in Ludum Dare. I used an auto clicker to beat it, cause my finger was hurting.

The transition effect after you 'win' was great. Massive download for such a simple game, but it is UE4. Now I need to give my fingers a rest.

Graphics are quite impressive for a jam! And you won the prize of the largest game I ever downloaded during a Ludum Dare! :D That's a simple mechanic, but well executed. I agree with @quinn-patrick that something more than just clicking super fast could add something to your game.

I shot one of the other turrets and almost fell off my seat laughing. I don't even know why I found that so hilarious, I think it just caught me completely off guard. Perfect comedic timing

That was certainly an interesting experience but it definitely didn't need to be over a gigabyte

Cool game. I liked it :)

Nice! I love the overall mood, graphics and audio are great too. Gameplay is very simple but the twist makes up for it.

That file size though!

ty-victorson 2022-04-07 22:50

My hand is killing me but i managed to "beat" the game! the graphics looked fantastic but like others have mentioned the file size was pretty large. My only gripe is that maybe you could have added more waves building up to the big one and making the turret automatic! Great work!

Interesting game. Love the visuals

Fun littel game. Looks very nice too. I love what the cannons do when you shoot one of them. :-) Good job. Nice entry.

easyluckygem 2022-04-11 18:18

Great work! Nice aduio, looks very good

hawke-games 2022-04-15 00:24

Interesting take on the theme. I couldn't destroy the first asteroid without an auto-clicker though. The graphics are awesome, and the audio is good. But my favorite part is that if you shoot the other turrets, they all turn in sink and shoot you Lol. 5/5 in humor just for that.
