This was really polished but it was impossible to lose. I got to wave 16 and then just decided to let asteroids bombard the planet and it seemed like it would go on for a very long time haha
I did enjoy it a lot though. The radial as a shield was super clever
I couldn’t find a fail condition - maybe I’m just pro gamer :kekw:.
I see what was being interpreted as radials, but they weren’t at all menu-ey. Regardless, i enjoyed popping shields radiating around a planet. Your humor in your writing is great, but I’d rather spend my time playing a game over reading the entire wall of text on the page. Had you incorporated that text throughout the course of the game, I would have probably been able to enjoy it more.
Back for Ludum Dare 50 (Delay the Inevitable) I made a somewhat similar game, except you placed defensive satellites around the planet. Obviously I liked your idea.
Well done!
Great idea of using a radial menu as a shield! The game ran well but got a bit boring after unlocking all the upgrades, it was also a bit annoying you still saw the upgrade menu after unlocking everything. I would recommend making smaller upgrades that can be scaled up! I also loved the day-night shader effect!
I didn't think I'd say this, but meteorites are destroying humanity too slowly!) I think the game would be better if they increased the damage from meteorites by 10 times. Although it's still good now.
I won the game I think. Nice and relaxing game, easy to play and understand. Nice use of the radial menu and the theme as well. Nice job on this one!
We got to 9 billion on earth! I can't believe I did that...
The description for your game on your itch page was super funny. The art and music were really good! I just wish the game got harder.
Love this game, very addictive! Everything looks and sounds good
Really like the pixel art, the sounds effects. It's got a good amount of polish to it. Sadly though, the difficulty is non-existent. If it does ramp up, it didn't keep my attention long enough for me to get there.
Simple Game Idea but had so much Fun
All the best
Thanks for playing!
It's so cool that a famous Youtuber that usually makes Minecraft videos entered into a game jam. Like the gameplay and the artwork. Game should start at wave 10 because it feels like a slow build up until then. Wish there were more powerups. Cool game though.
I appreciate all the feedback.
Except the Minecraft comments.
How dare you.
Everybody's dead, Dave :(
The pixel art and music are great. Overall polish is insane! I think that it would have been more fun if it ramped a lot more quickly as there wasn't much challenge until about wave 15, and even at that point, I was able to get hammered until wave 30 before I died. I had fun with it though. Great description as well! A little balancing is all that's really needed for this (and maybe a few more upgrades since you stop upgrading at wave 5). I had a lot of fun with this. Great job!
Yeah the difficulty curve is basically a right angle lol. Thanks for playing, and I've added that list of assets to the page description now!
