Save Your Planet! by SFX
This is my first Ludum Dare game. I'm shocked I actually finished. It was made using LOVE, so it should run on Windows/Linux/Mac. The Windows build comes with everything you'll need to play the game. To run it on Linux or Mac, you'll need to install LOVE v0.8 and run the .love file.

Check out my game, it's kind of similar.
Got to wave 16 and killed 839 enemies.
It felt like I was back in an 80's arcade with a group of kids gathered around waiting for me to run out of coins so that they could try beating the high score.
It could use some more variety in enemies and game play, but overall it's a very solid entry.
Only two suggestions: The game is a tad on the easy side, and maybe using a cannon instead of a giant man would look better :-)
Plus, psychic giant? Awesome.
