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!
