Worlds of Men by kdunee

made by kdunee for LD30 (COMPO)
Windows/Linux build is superior to the web player in terms of performance, however that shouldn't be much of a problem.

Feels very polished for an LD game! Love the voice declaring the remaining population! :)

Planet glow could be more pronounced. Took a while to know which planet to click first. Very polished entry and fun game once I got past the initial confusion. Lovely graphics too.
Great job!

I really like it. Sound and graphics are awesome. :)
Can be quite difficult if you get a bad spawn, but it poses a great challenge.

Very nice, I played for quite some time. My only complaint would be that it felt unintuitive that I had completely protected some planets, but I still lost because some outer planets got hit. Also, it needs some sort of high score :)

I enjoyed this game, although it was a bit confusing at first.

The graphics and audio work well. Overall looking and sounding polished. The zooming in for the planets is especially impressive (although not useful for gameplay). Nice touch on the voice prompt.

Gameplay wise, it seems like an interesting take on the tower defence concept, with a twist on resource management (powering worlds/satellites) and tower placement. The gameplay suffers from a lack of a goal or end game though.

Hey there. Good message in this game, stop building war machines and start on the Arks already people... Like the music and gameplay, felt very doomed... Good job!

I didn't really understand how to play properly until I watched your gameplay video, but found the game really fun once I did.

Extremely hectic near the end when I had to keep my old planets connected, while trying to safely connect to the remaining few, and at the same time keep shielding the old ones.

Very enjoyable!

Wow! I thought it was a 2d game, but that I zoomed and smiled :D
Very nice, but I could not figure, how to connect the planets.

Interresting game. Like the abstract style.
In video it seems so simple, but for me it was very hard...

I really liked the fast paced gameplay, got really stressful (in a good way) when your trying to quickly link planets and place the counter measures. Even though the controls are really simple it took me a little while to figure it out, perhaps you could give players a short duration to link 1-2 planets and get a hang of the controls before starting the asteroids.
