I really enjoyed this one. It's somewhat similar to a concept my team came up with before what we settled on, so it's cool to see it realized here, especially with such quality. The balance between expanding, upgrading, and defending is well done and enjoyable. For me it was rather laggy and froze sometimes, but looking past that it was a fantastic game!

Just out of curiosity, what hardware/browser are you both running? I'd love to go through it to optimize and see what could be causing those lag issues.
It was working pretty great on my 5 year old macbook pro, though I admit that's not exactly a super weak system haha, until I got a ton of units and things going on and then the sounds started wigging out, but I never experienced much lag. But it obviously is having some issues as you both mention.
Yeah! My laptop is old and I upgraded the parts I could, but the graphics card is not great. Running firefox browser. Here are the specs.


The game would lag when I placed a building. (I was talking to Technopath games (my brother) and he said it was the shaders compiling making it slow down). Hope this helps!
