I think you forgot to remove a debug thing where when I press Space it regens the world.

A decent TD game!

After quite a few false starts I managed to get my economy going and win! I didn't harvest any of the other resources because I felt I needed to focus very hard on yellow and white to build more miners, and the turrets I could get were good enough.

I'd appreciate a little more explanation or in game UI to help me along when I started as it's quite opaque and wrong decisions cause death after a minute, which is a very long time to receive feedback. On the other hand, the feedback was clear: I died because I didn't have guns, because I didn't have resources, because I didn't have miners on the right seams. I almost put it down after a couple of deaths but I'm glad I persevered.

It's well put together, the game flow works well and I enjoyed the final moments before winning, it was a good payoff. Good job!

I tested it a bit but found it quite uneasy to get started with. No control scheme in game nor in the game page so I had to press random stuff on the keyboard to see something happening. Then try random stuff on random places to try to guess their behaviour. The idea is nice and I guess that with a little extra time a nice entry tutorial would have done its dirty job :smile: Nice entry, btw!
