Wow, this game is so cool, it could be very addictive. Congrats!
Thank you for the words of support!
Cool economy vs. military game. Well put together and fun!
Thanks! Glad to hear it was fun.
The game offers a cool tactical mix between economy upgrades and actually attacking Earth, which I really enjoyed. The sound design and the music add a unique atmosphere. There is obviously the bug that makes it impossible to win the game, but apart from that, great job.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the game and its atmosphere!
I really enjoyed that game. There is a nice music atmosphere. Only point is that earth population is going negative instead of winning the game.
Glad you enjoyed my game.
And, yeah, I may have misplaced the wire connecting the Earth's health to the victory screen ;)
The game had a perfect idea and well executed. Really fun game and a unique concept ! Great job :D
Happy to hear you liked it!
a simple yet amazing game! would like to see some twist to it in the future!
Thanks, I'm planning on releasing a patched/updated version sometime after voting closes.
So many good things mixed into this masterpiece. A lot of fun, very good game!
Nice to hear!
Nice game! I love games where you need to have an economy setup. Nice job!
Thank you for the positive feedback!
Very good game!
I was entertained for quite a while :)
Thanks, nice to hear you were entertained!
I am a total sucker for numbers-go-up games like this! So much dopamine. Really solid game, I enjoyed trying to minmax my strategy a lot. Gave me some serious Plague Inc. vibes :)
Glad you enjoyed minmaxing the game ;)
Game works, and the visuals are nice, only issue is that if you "beat" the game by setting the population equal to or less than zero before the time runs out, you still lose. But overall it's a nice game, good job!
Happy to hear you enjoyed it.
Forgot to wire up victory panel to Earth heath, sorry!
I think I beat it even though I got the game over screen. Fun game nonetheless. The third ship is crazy strong!
You probably did beat it. I forgot to connect the game over panel to the Earth's health :)
Pleased to hear you enjoyed my submission.
This was awesome. It's the type of game I never think of making, which is odd because I love the tactical aspect, and I also love automation and making the numbers go up hehe
Atmosphere, gameplay loop, theme, all felt great. I also haven't come across another game at all like it so far. The UI was the only thing that jarred, for me, with the high standard of everything else but I'm really reaching saying that for Jam game haha.
Great stuff!
Happy to hear that you enjoyed the atmosphere and gameplay loop!
UI design is definitely an area where I need to improve.
Thank you for the feedback!
I quite enjoyed this. I loved the execution so much. Well done!
Nice to hear you enjoyed it!
Great game ! I really liked the atmosphere, you chose your assets really well. Also I am really impressed by the amount of features this game has it must have been a really hard work congrats !
Happy to hear you liked the game!
It was probably my most nerve-wracking game to develop. Came right down to the final few minutes.
Cool game! This was my quickest time to get to -26897 😌
Good Job. You'll have grinded the bugs to dust with that score!
Albeit quite simple in concept, I really had fun with this one!
the game was tons of fun! gameplay wise everything works and the execution is nice and solid, controls work well too ( even tho I tried to drag at first and it didnt work xD), the idea is quite creative and I'm glad to see it translated well into gamplay,
the gameplay loop while seems to stale after a bit, is lots of fun and has a lot of replay value, so overall everything checks out, albeit visually quite simple I like the artstyle and dig the simple yet effective vibe, if i could add something I would totally upgrade the visual fidelity though this game can greatly use better effects and more fancy polish, while it is polished and well made, more feedback and effects could make it a bit more interesting for the eyes, but again just my opinion,
overall a very solid entry, and quite the fun one too, great work!
Thanks you for the in depth feedback. It is much appreciated.
Visual polish ideas sound good, but alas I ran out of time. More variety in gameplay sounds like a good shout too.
Well, I got -3,000,000 population, killing even bacteria, but I guess the doomsday weapon the earthlings created was deep inside the core and I lost anyway! Cool game though! I liked the idea and tried my best to increase my score!
I may have forgot to wire up the victory screen to the Earth.
Happy you liked the game's idea!
I enjoyed playing it! It took me sometime to realise I am trying to destroy earth but I figured it out anyways. Well Done!
Glad you enjoyed it. And well done for figuring out the game's objective too!
Very playable - i ve enjoyed it. I like concept and idea.
Good to hear!
