I feel all warm and fuzzy now, though maybe that's just sleep deprivation. :P"},{"author_name":"youdonotexist","author_uid":"1170","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 6:08am","epoch":1355896980,"text":"This was great. I loved how you could see the nuclear strikes hitting the planet. Visually, this was very well done. I would like to have had an auto-fire feature (click+hold to repeat fire), but this may have just been because I was playing with a trackpad."},{"author_name":"Cake&Code","author_uid":"10976","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 6:12am","epoch":1355897220,"text":"Hehe, this was rather fun if a bit click-frustrating (lots of frantic clicking!). I like the idea and the execution is really well done.\r\rSome things I noticed though were that everything has very fixed spawn points so that it becomes a chore to deal with the enemies as they all feel repetitive. A bit more randomness and potentially progression (introduction of new enemy weapons or behaviors) would have been a breath of fresh air.\r\rThe end was surprising and awesome. I was expecting to just lose and have a results screen, but having the dude escape and then quantifying the score as a human-cash-value of destruction was epic. I mean I dealt $53,800,000,000 in damages! Take that human race xD"},{"author_name":"loren","author_uid":"17687","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 6:12am","epoch":1355897220,"text":"Really like the look and feel, nice particles!"},{"author_name":"rvmook","author_uid":"8418","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 6:12am","epoch":1355897220,"text":"Nice little game.

Thanks so much for the comments. And special thanks to Cake&Code for the constructive criticism. I know exactly what you're saying with the repetitiveness, I ran out of emotional energy and just left the shield and carrier spawns in one place hoping that the game wasn't long enough for it to be bothersome. Means a lot to get such commentary from a stranger!"},{"author_name":"GameRespect","author_uid":"17760","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 6:58am","epoch":1355899980,"text":"A pretty fun game, though it will benefit form more enemies\/weapons, but since this is LD, it's awesome already!"},{"author_name":"tim_u","author_uid":"18725","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 8:06am","epoch":1355904060,"text":"Impressive for such a short time with your tools. While playing, I was wondering about the shield and carrier spawns. It seemed like a tactics thing. You had to chose between defeating the carrier or getting the shields. So, fun game. I liked it even if my mouse is now mad at me for tapping it so much."},{"author_name":"chrismwaite","author_uid":"17895","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 2:18pm","epoch":1355926380,"text":"Nice game.
