@wsKilljoy Hey, thanks for that tip! I actually wasn't aware that Godot supported HTML5 exporting!

@jharler Thank you for the helpful suggestion! I'll look into adding a visual indication for this if I choose to continue the project.
Admittedly, I feel like this just doesn't work as a web game. The mouse moving the camera causes it to move out of the frame, and there seems to be no way to lock it into the frame. This makes turning around rather obnoxious at times, because once you scroll outside of the boundaries, you have to loop your mouse around the window and keep going. The lack of sound got to me too. I'm not sure if it's just on my end or not, as others here mention sound, but I didn't hear a single sound in the game. It's rather easy to accidentally give the products to the wrong person. On my first delivery, despite looking at the person I was trying to give it to, it gave it to the person next to them for some reason. Otherwise, it seems to be a relatively solid game, just not overly innovative or fitting the theme IMO.
This is a pretty nice genre fusion IMO. The main thing I feel that it needs is a way to back up the ship to keep the aliens from moving to the bottom of the screen. If you get unlucky in that regard, it can become impossible to win. It's a really fun and polished simple browser game, the sorta thing I can see being popular back when Newgrounds was a thing. I loved the idle animations that play as well, they add a lot to the game's simplistic art.
The game was nice for what it was. I had a heck of a time getting it to run though. Make sure to export builds for other platforms when using Unity, not everyone has Windows on their gaming PC, and it helps with accessibility if everyone can play.:wink: That aside, nice concept, and wish you could've gotten more of it done!
It's a nice, casual roguelike game. I'm quite fond of the fusion between classic roguelikes, card games, and chess that you pulled off. With a bit more polish and tweaking, some animation, the ability to save between stages, and maybe a health bar, I feel like this could be a pretty good mobile game.
