This makes a lot of fun. Concept is super intuitive. This can be extended with more levels, reaching goals regarding surviving a specific amount of minutes. Super great, great job.

One tip: Try to enqueue your sounds when playing them or build in unity a mixer, let your shoot audio source go through a designated mixer channel and apply a limiter to the channel, such that the shoot sounds do not sum up too much.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, I will defenitly improve the sound in the future if I still work on this game. Initially I already wanted to use a audiomixer but I had no time:(

Submitted

Nice concept and really well made. I enjoyed the beginning and I think you could definitely expand this into a full game with more progression and maybe some sound/music.

Developer

Thank you!

Cool tower defense! I liked that you had to actively walk around and mine for resources to build your weapons. It's a nice twist on the formula! I felt like I got super overwhelmed though! But still, cool game!

Thank you!

Woah, this got so intense at the end. For long I thought, I have the perfect defence, and nothing can do me harm. But then they came! *harhar* lot's of them!

My poor mouse button is glowing :-D This was fun!


Developer

Thank you!

I liked it! I thought it was pretty fun to place down a bunch of turrets to fight the ships though I didn't really like the way you gather resources. It feels very boring and I don't know if its intended but I just sat at the rock mining while I placed turrets. Maybe, you could add a very tiny minigame when harvesting stuff? Good job!

Developer(+1)

Yeah it was intended to just sit at the rocks, i liked that but thank you for the feeback!

Pretty fun defense game. My best time was 6 minutes. I think the game works well and the mechanics are easy to grasp. The pathfinding was occasionally a bit wonky but not to a detrimental level. Great work!

Developer

Thank you! 

Really fun! i love a hard game (:

Developer

Thank you!

Nice game! 

Perhaps it is worth revising the difficulty curve and adding resource extraction automation)

Developer(+1)

i have thougt about a  resource extraction automation but i sadly had no time for it, and about the difficulty curve, ive been trying to make it good, but yeah. Thanks for the feedback!

Really really cool and challenging game, I had lots of fun while playing it!!

Developer

Thank you!

This is really unique! I like the idea that you have to be mining resources while also building your defenses, it's very interesting. Great job! I only made it to 2:46 !

Developer

Thank you!

I couldn't even last 3 minutes before I got swashbuckled. Good game!  

Developer

Thank you!

Epic gameplay. Almost beat your highest score

Concept is fun. I think making turrets stronger/faster or upgradable would be even more fun than relying on spamming mouse clicks on ships especially later on when the ships get more health points.

Very nice stuff. Well done.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, i initially didn't even want to add the click on the ships ability, but its still there, weird.

Submitted

Interesting game that is really impressive to be make in only 72 Hours,

Developer

Thank you!
