ISS Strike by IDEA_Games

made by IDEA_Games for LD 40 (JAM)

Title.jpg

ISS Strike is a spatial puzzle game where you are required to control the defense system of the Station. Unfortunately, the station has no weapons, so you'll have to reposition it in order to dodge the incoming asteroids. But be careful! The station grows its size in time! Hopefully you can count in an advanced asteroid motion prediction system...

Use WASD or Left Joystick to rotate the Station.

Very nice atmosphere in this one! I liked the concept a lot, and most of the time it was fun. However, the red lines indicating where the asteroids are going were a bit deceiveing at certain times. I was hit a lot by asteroids that, according to the red line, were going to miss me.

Also, sometimes it was hard to really know in what way the station would spin.

Other than that, I really enjoyed it, good job!

Great concept for the theme, very good.

I think this would work really well in VR because it's kind of hard to judge distances from looking at a screen.

Took me a while to get that the lasers were just warnings where the asteroids were going to hit.

The concept is pretty good, just avoid getting hit by rotating. You should probably start thinking about making this into a full game.

Here we got the longest asteroid rain of the history :smile:

### What I liked more :
* The main stength of the game is the concept, which is innovative (3D is well used), and deeply theme related.
* The second one is the mood, I'm thinking of the music and visual and at most you really "feel" the hits.

### How to improve :
* Maybe by increasing the speed of the asteroids with the time ?

Nice little game ! I liked the idea but I was a little bit desapointed that the laser width isnt the same than the asteroid. So sometimes you think your not hitting the laser but you get hit anyway. Maybe turning the camera could have helped. However its a simple but effective gameplay :).

I liked this. It is a simple concept but fun to play. You could probably make this into a full game.

This was a simple, challenging game. I enjoyed the art and mood, though it was a little difficult to work out whether an asteroid was going to hit, and those that were targeted near to the centre of the ISS were very hard to avoid. A way to shift the camera, or translate the iss would have been nice, too.
