My only criticism is that the rocket and machine gun turrets didn't seem to be shooting ammo (but they were causing damage).
Just love the simple mechanics. I found building lots of Mine's early, and then just holding out for factories was a good strategy.
This game is *begging* for multiplayer!
Darn fun!
Beautiful pixel work, great music and superb execution of soundly designed game mechanics. I love the necessity of map awareness- it is also quite scary when someone beats you to building factories and you are pretty much required to divert your resources into rushing your own factory because of it. It's great when you turn an enemy's advance around when they manage to snowball a bit in the beginning.
I agree that this game would work well with multiplayer. I think owning ground should give some kind of advantage to make it more strategic, perhaps if you couldn't build two mines within a certain distance of each other.
Now I have this game idea in my mind, combining this game with the space command and platformer elements from my entry, that would be really cool. Imagine if you could send up satellites that could attack the enemy from above and stuff. Maybe even send ships to colonize new planets. :D
- Bad balance. I just build a barrack at the beginning and won without doing anything else.
- not very innovative, the basic principe can be found in a lot of games
Too bad the machine gun and canon don't shoot ammo: please, update this gale with flying rockets and more explosions ;)
With an overview it will be perfect. Multiplayer ? ^^
Good job guys !
