[+] Ambitious!
[+] Feels like war
[+] Great and catchy tunes as music
[+] Easy to learn, hard to master
* Slowly advance by killing enemies in pits, then your troops replace them when they get there
[+] Make the player learn how to shoot in menu (explode this to start)
[+] Graphics, albeit not very pretty, are clear.

[-] Too much info at first
* Maybe an easier level / wave at first?
* For example, even though I read all the tidbits in the main menu, I didn't realize my troops could take position in a pit until one of my troops did. Game was very hard for me before that.
[-] Sometimes the random generation makes very, very hard maps

All in all, an enjoyable strategy & tower defense hybrid. Loved it! And I managed to beat it :).

Well, I managed to rate the wrong game by accident...
I'm sorry! I promise I will play this game too!

My rating was meant for this game: http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-32/?action=preview&uid=18422

Drop nuclear weapons in Europe, then realize when the sirens go off that I'm in France... lol

Movement to the terminal is a bit painfully slow, but other than that it's pretty great. The sirens are good

Super slow movement and complete confusion. I crawled to a button and pushed it and it said "You died, no surprise :)"

Doesn't run. Downloads fine but nothing happens when I open Unconventional War.exe ...

Controls felt a little bit jerky, sounds were a bit annoying, basically execution was not greatest. Overall idea was great, but lacked better execution

@mike1101 did you have the requirment and extracted the .zip ?

@Techblogogy we used psychopathic sounds , it is usefull sometimes :P

The movement could be waay faster and I don't feel any weight to my actions.

Well, the concept is good, and I like the walking sound. But there is not much than this, as you just die when pressing the button, and you can assign nuclear stuff to continent, but it's not clear what does it make.

Destroying humanity while moving in slow motion; the concept seems legit. :P
As other commenters have pointed out, the mechanics are quite confusing, especially because there are no clear instructions and no progress is noticeable.
If you rework the UI and polish the whole thing more, this could have some potential.

Soooo. Let's do some math here:
- compo ended ~9 hours ago
- you have a coolness of 67

This means you rated a game every 8 minutes for the past 9 hours, without taking a break, and did so fairly and thoroughly.

Right?

@ExploitingTheCoolnessSystem did you know that the word "Team" exists ?

Movement is really slow. I pressed two of the red buttons and laughed :) Could do with a tad more audio but a good effort.

This is boring. I don't get the mechanics really. It requires polish, like walking fast and less glitchy movement. It's boring because it's just clicking around without a point, and that's to me pretty boring. I don't get the theme. It's pretty much an ironic game too. Graphics are nice. Audio too.
That said, you managed to make a 3D game in XNA 48 hour, which is to me quite impressive. Any game > no game.

Any game that lets me kill everyone on the planet but me gets bonus points.

Crashed when first trying to open for me too shrug, but I am persistent and it just worked after that.

Movement was super slow and a little frustrating, but I just imagined I'm a cripple or robot bent on destroying the world in this bunker.

Good concept, a bit faster movement and less jarring sounds would improve this a lot, good effort.

Is there a button that does not kill you ?
I found the first screen, clicked randomly and won.

So I managed to kill everyone but myself by randomly clicking on all the regions, but after I walked through the door into the skeleton room I couldn't go anywhere else and the bug door was locked. Seemed like an interesting concept though, I think this could do really well with a good tutorial. Good job overall!
🎤 LogicielAllan
21. Apr 2015 · 09:21 UTC
@calavera & @Marcellus yes , the restart the game button !

@LTPATS it wasn't a bug door , it was really locked and the correct name for the sekelton room is the reunion room ;)
Thanks :)

I liked the idea, but not much feedback or consequence for my actions. The red buttons were.. well there :P

Movement was painfully slow- But I think you did a good job on the graphics, especially as an XNA game.

Woah! That siren made me jump!

I think you've got a really good concept here, needs a little bit of tidying up but could be pretty awesome

21. Apr 2015 · 16:46 UTC
audio is painful to hear, movement is too slow, the player is so small compared to the doors, and those should be easy to tweak... Then I didn't understand. Is there anything to do in the game besides either killing everyone on the world map without any real challenge or fun, or clicking on a button that kills you?
If you had written that the game was unfinished or just some tests without any objective, then okay, that's the point of the Ludum Dare, but you wrote "the game is pretty fun"...
Still, the base idea is cool and the mood was there.

Je suis très confondu par ce jeu. Quelle est l'objectif du jeu? Quand je presse les boutons, je meurs. Quand je presse l'écran, tout que je peux faire est assigner un arme pour toute les régions, puis un sirène est activé, et je ne peux rien faire après ce. C'est un idée bon, mais je suis simplement trop confondu pour jouer ce jeu. Mais vous avez fait très bien faire ce jeu dans XNA. Si vous pouvez expliquer ce que j'ai besoin faire, je jouerai de nouveau :)

Aussi, j’espère que vous pouvez comprendre mon français. Je suis un étudiant américain, dans mon année troisième de français!
🎤 LogicielAllan
25. Apr 2015 · 19:12 UTC
@TheMaster99 il n'y a rien a faire , ce jeu n'a pas d'autre objectif que d'exterminer le monde | they are nothing to do , this game has no other objective than exterminate everyone in the world ! [if you want more info tell us ;)]

I don't really understand it
So the point of the game is to drag weapons to the continents and then press the button?..
I don't see a game here honestly, and the ending here is really strange too
