I would like to know which power plant I have currently selected, which skill does what by means of tooltip (instead of having to go to the separate help screen), when I gain skill points. I would like to know which of my power plants is under attack, without having to look around the whole map, same for attacks. Plants hiding behind the sidebar are a problem.\n\nOther than that, how about some variety in the plants themselves? E.g. some could be \"large\", some \"small\", and the small ones could only perform two of the three utility \/ defend actions, etc.\n\nIt's a simple game (with a cool soundtrack!), but good job!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"EGN","author_uid":1013807,"time":"2017-08-05T16:06:11Z","epoch":1501949171,"modified":1501949171,"text":"nice work!!!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Irishbruse","author_uid":"1021898","time":"2017-08-05T18:45:34Z","epoch":1501958734,"modified":1501958734,"text":"Cool Game idea wish the graphics were better.\ngood game overall tho.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"BobbyTables","author_uid":"1045116","time":"2017-08-05T19:15:46Z","epoch":1501960546,"modified":1501960546,"text":"Great game that was fun to play.

Attacking\/defending was clear enough once I'd read the instructions, but there's a real lack of detail in a lot of the options - the upgrades path should show a description of the upgrade on hover. Do upgrades cost money? Skill points? I couldn't see anything that told me, only that I was unable to afford them. I also found it strange that I couldn't upgrade specific skills, and it would just upgrade the tree to the next level of upgrade - what if I want my level 2 skill 1 ability early? It looked like a lot of effort was put into the skill tree but I couldn't afford to spend time flitting from the help menu to the skills tree while the game was going on. A shame, because I feel like if I understood this game a little more it would have greatly increased my enjoyment of the game.
