I'm not sure I understood the building phase (in the controls it says I can pick up blocks with left mouse click, but this didn't have any effect for me).
The shooting phase has some draw in a tower defense kind of way (but I didn't get very far since I couldn't move the blocks and eventually got stuck under a pile of them 😅
I like the idea though and would like to have been able to play more!
Interesting concept, the ship parts are very easy to knock over by climbing on them but that does add another element of strategy
I broke my own base by shooting it lol
Interesting game. I like the gameplay.
Interesting game, I like the concept of protecting a specific item / block rather than it being pure hp based. And I think if the blocks had more affect on the aliens - more stopping power and some durability, this could be super fun! Good work :)
Building blocks are weightless and can be easily moved by the aliens. This seems to be an original idea, and if it is, then my only suggestion is to make it possible to rotate the blocks during the building stage, because aliens (and character's gun) push the whole structure and rotate individual blocks way to much.
It was a original idea, also I ran out off time to rotate blocks but I was going to add that. Thanks for playing!
