I like the concept. However, there are a few issues. Water doesn't actually do anything (you are fine even with negative water). You can leave the speeder, and if it's going too fast you essentially softlock the game since you can't get to it and nothing spawns when you're not in it. Getting run over crashes the game. That said, these are the only real issues I have; if you had more time to polish and maybe add some more life to the desert this would have been pretty amazing!
Not gonna lie, I wasn't a fan of this one. All you do is cycle between clicking on 3 buttons. There is no challenge anywhere, at least as far as I played.
Not bad! It took me a while to realize that I was making progress as opposed to the game resetting because I failed somehow (I would never have figured it out before an enemy actually got through and saw the fail animation) - maybe there could be some kind of victory animation? Other than that, it definitely felt like an old arcade shooter. Pretty fun.
...Not bad. Only issue is that enemies can sometimes spawn already within firing range of Earth - meaning they fire instantly. Otherwise, once you get enough stuff you get really powerful (though get too much and sounds stop playing properly), leaving you with a kinda fun power trip. And that shooting sound... 11/10.
Definitely a solid shooter. I wish you would have done more with the radiation though - it's literally an AoE attack that you have to use periodically that gets a little bigger the longer you wait. It might be pretty cool if your standard attacks got more powerful the higher your radiation is.
Definitely a fun play on word games! I think you could definitely take this further and publish it to an app store or something!
