Mini Circle Wars by kreddor
Mini Circle Wars is a game about some red and blue circles that band together to defend against a bunch of small yellow circles.
Red circles are cannon circles, and shoot at enemies. Blue circles are harvesters, and gather energy for building and shooting.
The goal is to survive as long as possible.
Tips:
* You can zoom using scroll wheel or page up/page down.
* Pause game with 'p' if needed.
* Your highscore is saved across sessions.
* Canon towers can be upgraded :)
Problems:
* Scroll wheel doesn't work in HTML5-mode.
The game is made in Java with libgdx framework.

I hope it's okay that I pushed out a small bug fix for this.
I'm not even sure if upgrading was a needed mechanic.
I couldnt understand if the quanity of harvesters effected the income rate, or if it was the area covered that effected the income rate though.
Nice job!
josefnpat: You're right that upgrading doesn't do much for the game currently. I probably should have left that mechanic out of the compo version. And the area itself doesn't affect income, this should have been made clearer.
mrspeaker: You can also zoom with pageUp/pageDown keyboard buttons.
xDreamCoding: It had originally made it so you could build repeatedly until you made a right click. But right-click doesn't work in html5-edition, so I changed it in the last minute.
*Damn you, orange circles!"
