Save The Moon
https://whiskeylover.itch.io/save-the-moon
I made a space themed sim game along with my 12 year old kid. This is our very first game, and I think it came out pretty good. It has cute graphics.
TLDR; - A comet is about to crash on the moon and the debris will cause the destruction of Earth. Save the moon! You have 1 year (or 30 minutes of real time).
The game is limited to 1820 seconds, or 30 minutes. You either win or lose the game at the end of 30 minutes.
I'm looking for Critique on art and general difficulty level. I've tried very had to make it balanced, but it's a work in progress.
Synopsis -
On March 9th, 2251, Dr Abaddon Trephor discovered that a comet strike would split the moon in half in exactly 100 years. The two halves would then make contact with Earth, causing Earth to explode. He tried to warn the people, but unfortunately he was ignored by the leaders of the Earth… until it was too late. 99 years have passed since Trephor made his prediction, and now we can clearly see the comet (codenamed XORF-2261) making its way to the moon and will collide with it in exactly 12 months time. As a last ditch effort, the leaders have sent you to the moon to build a defense station to blow up the comet in its path. If we’re lucky, we may be able to narrowly avoid this disaster and live to tell the tale.
