How does your game fit the theme?
Space Invaders twist- Instead of playing as one ship against an invasion, you protect the mothership from an intruder using waves of ships.

Interesting prototype/concept. It might be nice to see more, maybe a 1v1 multiplayer mode, one person with the mouse, the other with the keyboard.
It's just so cool, and incredibly fun!
Nice to see that you had a similar idea to mine. We named our games similarly and we both uploaded our games at the last minute. We must be twins, who were separated at birth. Hahaha.
Great effort. It has potential, if you polish it more and add more gameplay depth.
Cheers!
nice game, but it was hard for me to understand what is going on, like the enemy life is going down ? Or how much am I supposed to hit him?, but I believe it was due to a problem with the screen size in the Brower, and it was enjoyable to play.
I like the concept and the game looks good, I like the general mood. I had fun and wish it was longer, it has nice potential! I'll play again if you have time later to implement the respawn of the intruders as you said
The consept is very cool, and it looks good, I would enjoy that it was longger
Quite enjoyable, though I felt like I mostly mashed buttons and hoped for the best. I defeated the enemy though so I'm happy enough with the outcome. Great work! I would have liked to be able to see how many ships I was able to spawn to manage my resources a little better, though!
Very fitting and menacing music. The launch button is very satisfying to click and it is very enjoyable to watch the ships attack the alien at the click of a button.
Great work! If you want make it better after the jam I suggest making some kind of money system to upgrade your ships and stuff like that ;) And if you want a more arcade look go for neon colors and, of course, pixelart!
Noice!! Cool idea. :)
loved this
Love the presentation! Feels like I'm at an arcade cabinet and the way the spawning buttons are incorporated looks really nice. Felt like with the lack of control of your ships the only strategy is just to spam but it is fun to see your armada take down the ship
Thanks! Yeah, the extent of ship waves was "do the ships go out on their path" and not much further. As a beginner there's lot's to learn and figure out- my wider scope was to have more complex cooldowns, different wave options to send out on different buttons, and that all to show up on the screen. More work to be done!
Nice minigame - It's really fun. I was wondering if you could add some AI to the player's ships - they're just moving randomly.
Thanks! Currently each button sends ships on a set path and they all have a static firing rate, but I'll consider adding something more would give it more depth.
-Enjoyment: It is really fun watching all the action play out while I just sit back and press buttons ~
-Creativity: Very creative way to reverse the roles.
-Presentation: Great! The UI and graphics are all very clear and simple. Having a moving star background with parallax would be perfect!
-Neat game indeed!! Please check out my non-creative entry when you can :D
