I can see another "plague inc" in the making. Every section has many numbers to them, which means you have different approaches to spend your resources optimally and when to use them. 

The music is perfect for this game in terms of immersion, creating a sense of urgency with each playthrough.

The visual design is simple but effective, but I'd think it still has room for improvement, such as more icon for condition(like health critical, or dead), the individual buttons need to be clearerso that players can know they can shave precious energy, to name a few.

Obviously, the game would need better tutorialization for this magnitude of complexity.

Go play "Plague Inc" and "Rebel Inc" to see what visual design you can use, I'm sure you've got something very special on your hands.

I love this approach to the theme, I considered doing something similar with a power management game, but this turned out way better than I think my idea would have! Thanks for sharing!

And if you get a chance to check out my game Foxy Boom Boxy, I would love any feedback, thanks!

This is an interesting game. The minimalistic presentation is nice. The controls for the block power are a bit small. Good work!

Submitted

sinple but effective graphics while the overall audio gave it a dramatic feel. Nicely done. Got lots of promise. Like the use of the phone to intro the situation 

Submitted

Minimal damage sustained. Operation success!

Very interesting approach to the theme. I think that with another font, an immersive tutorial, and some tweaks it feels like a Poki game. Please keep working on it!

PS: Loved the "mobile" phone interaction. It was very clever.

I like the looks, but the gameplay is a bit low.  the concept is good and matches the theme.  just gameplay. good effort!

Good game with a lot of potential. but suddenly a snow storm appeared and just game over.

I am sorry that the ending confused you. The reason that happened was either because five or more of the blocks were destroyed, or because the generator was destroyed. You can see the health of each block and the health of the generator from the health bars. I would like to make it more obvious why the player lost but due to some personal time constraints I didn't have enough time to do that. Thank you for your feedback.

No worries. You should develop that into a proper game afterwards. Even I'm planning to do the same

I was really drawn out by this game and the graphics are just super

Submitted

Really cool concept. A good protytipe that could become a full-featured strategy/managment game. 

Could you try my game too? I would really apreciate it.

Awesome game! love the visuals and the audio is really nice to, super unique as well! plays smoothly and is overall a great entry.


if you don't mind it'd be great if you could throw a rating my way, any feedback is great :D

Submitted

I was very unclear what to do. I just kinda flipped stuff in and off and then gave up :(

Hello, rbrammen. Your confusion is understandable since the game didn't have a clear objective. Due to personal time constraints, I didn't have time to implement a tutorial and the instructions in the description were lacking. I have now updated the description to provide more detailed instructions. Thank you for your feedback.

Fascinating game design! I awarded a 5/5 for the originality, although I believe there's room to make the gameplay even more enjoyable.
