You only get one. One what? It wasn't immediately obvious to me. Which is why I can't rate this that high overall. It was a fun game with some humor. A lot of content for 48h.

Nice little game. I like that "Debate" style a heck of a lot more than the real thing :P

A 2d top-down cover shooter disguised as a debate game disguised as a doomsday simulator? High marks for humor : )

Cool concept. I chose to max out team size, played through to the end. The battle mechanics were really simple. Could have taken that much further.

Pretty impressive game for the 48-hour timeframe, although you could have worked more with the theme. Good promotion of green values as well... ;-)

The music did make me reach for the mute button though!

The first thing I thought is the Anthrax song with the same title.

Anyway, I really enjoyed it! The story is kinda great, with some humour-factor - I love that gameplay was way different than I expected: instead of saving the world in an epic way, we are doing paperball-fight behind frontlines!

It's perfect in both the way of implementation and in the aspect of parody-esque critics of politicians and society!

However, at the last levels game freezed much times so I couldn't finish it.

Innovation: 5
Fun: 4
Theme: 5
Graphics: 4
Audio: 5 (great music!)
Humor: 5 (shaded but also strong)
Mood: 5

It deserves a 5 absolutely.

Great game ! It could be the best game out there if it fitted the theme better.

The usage of the word "debate" in this way is very funny ahah !

I really loved to be able to increase my time size !

An excellent submission. Love the humor and the "debate".

IMHO, this could easily be expanded into something that would do VERY on place like Kongregate if you split the world into more chunks and add more upgrade variety (faster fire rate, faster projectiles, multi-projectile, more damage, more effective debate team, etc...)

love it, you must develop it further now :D
classic gameflow, a bit easy, but very nice ambiance, all solid and elements go well together

Nice entry, fun to play. It may have been better if the crouch couldn't last more than a few seconds, maybe you tried it and it wasn't...good job though.

It's interesting that I have seen three takes on "You only get one earth" and that none of them have been the same at all. I was reminded briefly of Street fighter? Where you pick your opponents from various nations with their stats next to them. Europe is damn strong it turns out. They killed my arse.

Haha just found out this is based on a true story.
The gameplay is very fun after assembling an army!

Nice music, felt Christmassy to me. Very funny game, played it through ridiculing all continents :p

A game with a message ! I would have called it "We only get one Earth" to make sure people really get the point.

I think that's the best use of the theme there could be, so 5 !

Very fun game, I never had such fun debating ! I love the invite/ridicule mechanic... It mades me end the game twice ! :D
Maybe you should make morale decrease slowly whyle crouching, so this move won't be so powerful. you would try do it very quick and play more dangerously.

Cool game, really fun. Played it all the way through. Basically exactly how I imagine the real life debates playing out. One little thing you could do is limit the time you can duck, since I thought it was a bit too easy. Reminded me of one of my all-time favorites "Snowcraft"

@Benjamin and @Fadobo: I agree the ducking is a bit overpowered! Losing morale while doing it is a great idea and makes total sense too! Thanks! :)
