Interesting game. I would only suggest that you increase the chance of blasters dropping.

I was very very bad at this, but I gave it a few good tries. Great music (though it was super loud) and art was really clean and polished. Nice work!

A very cool game! Needs more guns :)

The concept is really good. However, I'm a bit frustrated about the fact that once we lose the gun, we basically have to suicide (cuz I'm a noob, lol) - maybe enabling the restart feature or auto restart would be good, otherwise, maybe you could find a way to give the gun back to the player. Like others have said, dragging two of the same items creating the next tier version would be a nice touch. Random power-ups to be collected would be a great thing as well. Other than that, an improved UI like the box on the right side along with a confirmation button will make the game seems more polished; often that I misplaced the gear because of the auto-attached features. The gameplay is sold and above all, it's a great concept and I like it. Great job!

It's a fun concept but you're pretty boned if you lose the gun, and this happens a lot because I'm bad at the game. Maybe if you made a hit to your only gun a game over instead of just leaving you for dead it'd feel better. Has promise though!

Very cool concept! I loved it. It has a lot of potential such as different gun and so on. And yes, as other has pointed, when you don't have gun, the game still continues but you can not do anything. Overall, it's a good game. Good job!

Hello! We really like the concept of this game! It's fun to add things and it adds an extra layer of strategy on how you destroy enemy ships. For improvements, we'd suggest that if you have no cannon one spawns after a while in your inventory, currently, a destroyed cannon can be a game over but the game continues. Overall very fun game!

i'll look into it! i think i should add collisions between enemy tiles and player tiles, so you can kamikaze even without a gun

This one was a blast! I beat it like 3 times for fun. This was my favourite ship design

Developer

This actually really cool! Only downside if you don't have a gun you can't do anything! Also cool that you just need to destroy the core and that all other parts can be added to your ship.

More types of weapons would be really cool, as well as upgrading existing ones. (drag for example a booster onto one of your boosters to upgrade it to a next level). In the inventory aswell, drag em onto each other to create a next tier version. Then that one can be dragged onto an upgraded version of your ship. This has so much potential! :)

Keep up the good work! :D

thanks for the ideas!

Really good idea, I think it could benefit from a quick way to restart if you lose your weapons but overall a fun game
