It looks like what dinos make it through influences the properties of the next wave, which is pretty cool. Two complaints: The aiming mechanic is pretty frustrating for me, I'd rather just have point and click. Second, the explosion sound effects seem to have very uneven volume."},{"author_name":"Kayelgee","author_uid":"15267","time":"Aug 31, 2012 @ 9:55am","epoch":1346406600,"text":"very nice game, the only thing that I didn't like was that I could click outside of the window :D"},{"author_name":"Robotic","author_uid":"8502","time":"Sep 1, 2012 @ 2:38pm","epoch":1346509980,"text":"Nice graphics and gameplay, it took me a half minute to understand how to shoot meteors, but it felt great.

I think the gameplay needs a bit more balancing: you can do pretty well just by flicking the mouse straight up and down as quickly as possible, it would be nice if there was something about each level which meant you had to vary your tactics a bit (but I have no idea what that could be). But I did enjoy playing it, so... :-)"},{"author_name":"Josh @ Dreamland","author_uid":"5818","time":"Sep 9, 2012 @ 5:25pm","epoch":1347211200,"text":"WINE doesn't like XNA at all, so my list is pretty much nothing but XNA games I can't run, at this point."},{"author_name":"goerp","author_uid":"14225","time":"Sep 15, 2012 @ 11:51am","epoch":1347709560,"text":"That's an original take on the theme I haven't seen yet. Throwing the meteors was fun and looked very good, so I'm not missing a cool menu or awesome graphics. For me you can add some more gameplay, that you had to aim for something more than a highscore, but for 5 hours impressive."}],"images":["ld24\/5295-750d90483238e0fa2be51c772c9944b6.jpg","ld24\/5295-ff7e915c2fb3d639379632e784d7aceb.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropbox.com\/u\/459733\/LudumDare24\/Release.zip","text":"Windows with XNA-Redist"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropbox.com\/u\/459733\/LudumDare24\/Release_withoutRedist.zip","text":"Windows without XNA-Redist"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"28631","g_author":"5295","g_event":"LD24","g_eventkey":"12","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"28661","g_title":"Unnatural Selection","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"100","g_commentcount":"18","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/5295-shot0.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/5295-shot1.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Well hello there ... welcome to Unnatural Selection.\r\n\r\nThis game was made in 5 hours for the LudumDare 24  ( i started another game on day 1...but it wasn't any fun...so i scraped it in the last minute)\r\n\r\nBecause of the limited time frame there are some things missing(cool menu\/ awesome graphics ... and so on)\r\n\r\nIn this game you play a meteor throwing thing who has the assignment to destroy the last dinosaurs on earth.
