The radial grid for tower placement was a cool and made building feel good. The lasers were fun to use and looked great. I did notice the difficulty didn't ramp up much after a while and the waves slowed down, which made the endgame feel a bit too easy, but that would be easy to balance. A nice spin, well done

Thanks for playing 😁

Well done, and I think Max Frymark's comment nailed it.

Great game, everything felt good and I loved the radial grid. My one criticism would be that I don't think the difficulty scales up high enough. Once you get full LEO satellites there's nothing the enemy can do to hurt you and the wait times between waves become too long. But other than that great job! 

Developer

Thanks for playing! It definitely needs balance. We scaled the enemy health and speed instead of changing up the waves and that was definitely a mistake.

It's a game that takes up a lot of your time because it's so much fun that you forget the time. If it's developed further, it might be sold in the future. But recently, I've noticed that there's been some lag. I'm not sure if it's my device.

Developer

Thanks for playing. Your're right, there are some performance issues that need to be addressed, it's not just the server 😅

Wow what a great game, but where is the end I reached 20k score, and the server started to lag 

Developer

Thanks for playing! You can build by the mother ships and take them out. Destroying all 4 wins the game. I added that in the last hour before submitting the game and didn't  incorporate it into the instructions.

I think I might have won! XD lol I stopped playing when the waves slowed down and every wave got obliterated.  I liked this game and had fun figuring out where to put my guns and such to take down the enemy.  Definitely fit the tiny world theme. Great job :)

Developer

Thanks for playing! I need to add some instructions on killing the motherships way out in orbit.

Good looking game, I really like the grid effect when placing towers.  I think my game hung up, I stopped seeing any waves after a few minutes with nothing happening.

Developer

Thanks for playing! We definitely have a lag problem that needs fixing, but this sounds like something else might have happened.
