Cool story, fun twist on space invaders
I did end up finding a bug where the menu didn't disappear, it stayed there for the rest of the game (about 4 or 5 levels).
I ended up saving planet B though, so I'm happy :D
I liked the game and the concept. The controls worked well for me, and everything turned out really well overall.
I liked that I’m the invader in this space invaders game! Too bad it’s buggy right now…
I think a separate instance of the game started playing on top of itself? I'm unsure.
That was a neat demo! Reverse "Space Invaders" is an intriguing idea. Good work!
A nice little game, and it feels good to be the bad guy for once! :-D
I like the idea. I’d like more variety; the game is very simple.
Nice game. The animations are really nice, but in the current form, the game lacks variation. You could add more enemy tanks, or different bullets. I kept playing hoping for more, so the game has potential. Other than that, I had fun playing. Congrats!
The Nokia startup animation turned out insane.
This game has a fun spin on space invaders, unfortunately the upgrade screen never closes, so it's permanently in the background during gameplay. I think the game would hold my attention longer if there were more permutations on the gameplay, like the enemy gaining a different shot type that shot at an angle, or a brief machine gun or something. There is a lot of potential here!
Thanks! I'm sorry about the upgrade screen bug. Thought I had fixed that before publishing. I'll look into it again. Yep would have loved to add different enemy types and behaviors. I just kinda only updated their shoot max, shot speed, movement speed, and player tracking speed but its only apparent after level 18 or so. Thanks for playing!
May I ask what browser and OS you played on?
