nice game. I ended up building way too many fighters for the beginning

Very well done game. I loved all of the ships flying around. Great use of the theme too. Nice job.

Pretty cool. I didn't connect very many worlds, but I did enjoy spamming the screen with fighters

Having the game pause after I leave the window would be a neat little addition. The game is fun, took me a moment to work out what the connectors actually were. I did get fucked over by the lack of pause >.< but thats my fault. http://puu.sh/b7g6a/267b5e0808.jpg

Really nice idea! The game gets pretty hard pretty quickly, I can't get further than around wave 50 (which I count as a good thing). Fun to play!

Fun game, I like it! Though, later there are too many ships - it gets laggy for me.

Great game, might be usefull to know which planet can be connected to which other planet, so you can plan better from the beginning.

Didn't hear any music. Would have helped with mood.

Really fun game, after the first play through I knew which planets to focus on and then got to wave 100 but the screen was so full of fighters the enemies were stuck off screen lol.

Very fun. I enjoyed the resource managing, but the crazy shooting/explosions during fights was the best.

Quite a good little strategy game. The controls and the mechanics are clear and intuitive. I got swarmed by the enemies quite fast, though.

Cool stuff! I thought it was too easy at first, but then it totally kicked my ass.

Very fun game! I survived 135 waves... and then I was absolutely overrun :) (I assume there's no win condition and everyone gets swamped by attackers eventually?). Some audio would have been nice, but still a good game overall.

Kind of like a simple Eufloria.
I love it! :)

Cool idea. Took me a while to get the hang of. I ended up having to wait a long time to expand since I didn't realize each planet yielded one mineral type. Really fun though. Good job!
