What an amazing idea!
I FUCKING LOVE PRESSING THE BUTTON!!! only problem... i wasnt sure when i finished the game (i probably should play one more time just to be sure.....)
awesome game, the music aswell!
its really challenging to save those poor orbs, and i keep letting them down :(
i think the screenshake is a little bit too much; my eyes are still shaking while i write this comment :D
Played Long Enough to get all upgrades. Overall pretty well balanced gameplay Loop!
Here are some random thoughts i had: * The master volume sound bar is not really smart, the way it works you can just leave it out. * the sound gets REALLY loud, once you have a horde around you; maybe its fine to not play all death sounds * the progression is fine (i always improved by just the right amount per round * its kind of annoying that you are forced to play the first 2 mÃnutes; once you are OP. its just a waiting game for most of it. the really relevant part is limited to ~30 seconds per round * obviously you could add animations and such; but it was good enough for me * moving into the base is kinda glitchy; it gets annoying when you are teleported back and since you have to run around your base all the time it will usually get you killed * walking diagonally allows you to move faster
I spent around 10 minutes reading the different slides until i figured out what exactly to do. (atleast i think i got it now).
But its really hard to understand how to perform actions and which actions i should perform. It would have really helped me if you had a small tutorial scene just showcasing the different characters and what they could do. for example: my police triangle was on the train with the bomber and i thought that will win me the game. Feedback for the actions would also be great, maybe a UI on the side that i can click that shows me when a action is ready (this also helps understanding the game). i rarely knew why my actions did not work or if they got registered.
