Best of luck, commander!

This is my third Ludum Dare! And first time releasing a game in Unity!
I was actually going to make this game in my own engine, but I got a project going that will use Unity, so I decided to practice it in LD!
This entry was actually pretty hard for me to make, I was really tired, a lot of setbacks... BUT I manage to overcome all my obstacles and finished the game!
It's not perfect and I don't think it's a winner (not that I actually compete in LD), but I'm actually happy with the result! Learned a lot too making this game!
I hope you enjoy playing it! And remember to comment so I can play your game too!!
Congratulations to all!!

The game is too hard, I think, or maybe I'm playing it wrong.
Everything regardind the sound is great. Dialogue as well.
Congrats!
I added a warning in the description!
Well, that escalated quickly.
@Drury At least they didn't kill you... that's something right? xp
Thank you all for playing!
The writing is actually pretty good and everything kept me interested until slimeking ate my base.
The audio and music came off extremely well! Reminds me of the early days of videogames when I was littler.
Welp...that wasnt so hard (unless you call me cheater ^^; )
I liked how the base reminded me of someones head, couldnt remember what though. Very nicely done game overall :)
@Grahhhhh What part made you think I hadn't finish the game? I'll gladly change the text so it won't be confusing anymore ^^
@XenosNS I actually did think about having the option to surrender, but I though that would spoil the fun... and I think they would enslave you anyway xp.
Oh yes, that's a valid strategy, but the real challenge is to play with only one hand~!
@theholychicken I'm very glad you liked it!
@SSJMetroid Wow that's impressive! I think I was able to beat without taking damage only once xp
@anv Thank you for the feedback! Indeed some of the assets was really rushed (specially the bars)... Hope it didn't spoil the fun though...
@AzureAspect Oh don't worry, I won't call you a cheater, but that was really the "easy mode" ;) Yeah, I think it's funny how the base ended up being xp I actually intended to be something between Starcraft Command Center and DragonBall Capsule Corp kkkk
@loxo I'm glad you liked it! I'm impressed with your skills!
Thank you all for playing!
@Gipzo I was wondering if I could actually categorize this game as tower defense ^^; Glad the story compelled you to keep playing~!
@davidcmcdonald Did you have some kind of error? Did you try using another browser? If nothing work you can still play the Windows build~
@Mirch Oh no, the field really consume a lot of energy, gotta keep pressing the recharge button as fast as you can~!
Nice entry here, first try it's very hard until we figure out that we can use the shield same time as we recharge it.
But my keyboard doesnt really like to be smashed so I lose at third try against the boss (I didnt lose any pv until the wave before)
Well done. ;)
I think it fits to the theme and you created a nice atmosphere. Good job. ^^
don't know how these pillar use at first
but when the game progress start,with these text storytelling~
everything go be fun~~(btw ,love the cute bgm!~)
happy newyear~
@schizoid2k @Pixelaborate I'm sorry this game isn't worthy of your awesome skills... But I'm glad you still enjoyed it!
@eruiz00 I decided to do the scripting in C# over javascript... I guess I just like the verboseness xp
@Instant Noodles You're welcome! Thank you for checking out my game too!
If you are curious about the ending you can watch the walkthrough ^^
@pzeronow I hope the pain was worth it xxp
@TheJackiMonster Oh my, you couldn't play the web version too? If not I can build a Linux release, it just going to take some time...
@Afendar Why thank you! I'm glad the challenge didn't frustrate you! But you can watch the walkthrough if you're curious about the ending ^^
@Tanton-H2X I'm very glad you liked it! Happy new year too!
BTW Happy New Year to everyone!
Keep up the good work!

Nice story!
Yeah, we probably were the bad guys, but in war against an immobile object, they had the option to give up or flee and they decided to not. After consideration, their mistake! xD
@kardfogu Oh yes, but they were too xenophobic to just flee, and they knew that having humans on their planet would mean trouble xp
Aside from that, the entry is pretty solid, even if it's not a top-notch one. Good job. ;)
Holding D and mashing A and left arrow made the game quite easy, though. :P
But nice work! :)
@yuigoto Another skillful player! I'm glad you liked it even though it's not worthy of you skills xp
I'll try to play your games, though I have not much time left!
