Theme interpretation
I was only able to start this game jam in the last days so I tried to keep it simple. For this reason, I choose to create a tower shooter on the moon.

Very good foundation for a Missile Command style game! I enjoyed it.

It would be great to add some difficulty progression, I did over 4000 points and it felt like nothing changed, probably you ran out of time to implement it, I totally understand.

As I mentioned, solid foundation, well done!

It's a great point for a start and giving the time you had is already getting somewhere, need a bit of work but a good start nonetheless. Good work!

Developer

Thank you

It's somewhat annoying that I need to click each time to shoot, but it's a nice start for a game.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. I agree with you, i thought of it but then forgot to add this feature

Classic planet defender design, okay execution but adding sound and more variation into progression as well as levels would help.

Also the mouse tracking seemed off for me, only working correctly a certain radius away from the cannon and getting more and more offset the farther you get from that.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. It's true that the game lacks several aspects. The mouse tracking issue is a bug that i couldn't fix in time to deliver, it only considers the x axis of the mouse. I will fix it in the future

If you want to add on some more to this game, I think some powerups for the player would also be a good addition. As it stands this game is pretty barebones but hey, it works! You did a good job having joined so late. I hope you continue developing this game.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. I had some ideas like that but they had to stay on paper. I will try to add more things in the future.

Very simple game with a literal interpretation of the theme. Needs a lot of polish. I won't be harsh with the criticism since you claim to have started in the last few days and managing to get something out in a short timeframe is a really hard thing to accomplish.

Thank you for the feedback. Yes, i agree the game really needs a lot of polish but for the timeframe i had, i really was happy with the outcome.

Nice work!

Very literal theme interpretation here but it works. Any plans to add sound / other types of defences?

Developer

Hello, thank you for the feedback. I had to keep it simple since I started this game jam very late. I will try to add more stuff during this month.

All good - congrats on finishing :) That's further than most people get and you nailed the basics!
