After playing many other jam games, I still find this one my favorite in terms of visuals. So, I decided to give it another go. Thanks for the tips! I see now that there is a “How to Play” section, and knowing how to play makes a big difference.

I love how serene the resource gathering side looks. I wish I could spend more time exploring there rather than racing against the clock to collect ores.

On the defense side, I just realized you can defend alongside your turrets by shooting at the enemies. However, I noticed my focus should really be on racing against the clock and picking up the drops.

With such beautiful visuals, it feels like a waste that on both the gathering and defense sides, the player is mostly mining ores or picking them up while looking down. I would prefer being able to explore the scenery more on the gathering side and see more explosions and action on the defense side. (The action is up in the sky, but my attention is on the ground.)

Of all the games I played in this jam, I really think this one might have the highest potential for commercial success. I think the player experience could be greatly improved if more of it involved exploring or engaging with the environment, rather than mining or staring at the ground.
