Cool idea with abilities. Good going.

Developer

Thank you!

Interesting concept and nice game!
The retro artstyle and simple controls makes the "build-armada" experience clean and enjoyable.

Deployable ships statistics just needs to be balanced a bit and it might be a bit chaotic when multiple laser sounds overlapped, it would be nice to have a random pitch for each one :)

Well done!

Thank you, i am glad you liked it ! Thanks for advice with pitch level;)

The difficulty ramped up a like quickly but otherwise a fun game with a great concept, Great work!

Developer

Thank you for playing !

Submitted

Great game :) I like the strategizing aspect of it, but the difficulty ramp is really hard to counter with anything and the resource charge can take too long for that, but good job in 48 hours :)

Developer

Big thanks for playing !

Great take on the theme, I really like the concept! The game needs a bit of balancing, it got difficult a bit too quickly for me. The various ships are well thought out and the dynamic between them is satisfying. Good job!

Developer

I am glad you liked it, thanks for playing! Yeah i will work on balance later to make experiance more satisfying ;)

Fun game. Wasn't able to complete the third level though, I feel like the shield units should have had a larger health pool rather than an intermittently active shield (granted, I'm also bad at games, so it might just be that).

Developer

Big thanks for playing! Yeah i did not have time for proper balancing the levels :) Hey thats a good idea. its simpler and more efective , thanks i think i will use it later !

Submitted

Great game! It let feel me nostalgic.

Developer

Thank you for playing ! :)

Really cool game, I liked the different ships. Great Job!

Developer

Thank you!

Nice game, the controls are simple but effective, and the rock-paper-scissor dynamic between the three ships works well!

Developer

I am glad you liked it! Big thanks for playing:)

I really enjoyed the different paths you can take when building your army - you can build a wall of shields to protect a mass of resource generators and then watch the enemy ship drown in a shower of your own fire power

If I had to give it a slight twist (and maybe you've tried this), I think it would be interesting to see it the other way around (i.e. your ships on the top), and/or maybe make the sprites for your ships appear more "evil" or "alien" and the enemy's ship more "hero". It would make it clearer that you're in control of the villain

Other than that, it's a nice base for a really interesting game, you should consider pushing it further!

sweet stuff!

Thank you very much for those kind words! I think this project have potential to be a small fun game, so i will update it and work on "evilness" of the player, Also will make the  villain sprite (there wasn't enough time during jam). I will be happy if you try it after update ;)

Submitted

This is a neat idea! Well done, I'm impressed with the fidelity you were able to achieve. Music and sounds too!

Developer

Hey! Thank you very much for playing :)

I like the concept of this game and enjoyed building up my armada and destroying the enemy ships also there is some strategy as to when you place your ships and what ships you place. A bit of feedback would be to randomly change the pitch of each shot a bit. Overall great job. :D 

Developer

Thank you for playing ! Its a good idea, i will use it :)
