It's a little hard, but not terribly hard. \n\nHowever, I think if this were to be further developed, it would be nice to differentiate between your units and enemy units (maybe by different colors), so that I can better understand who's attacking who. \n\nIn one play, I died very quickly (in round 2) even though I had a ton of turrets and there were a few enemies.\n\nI think it would be nice to know the health of the planet\/units, because that would help me understand why I lose.\n\nThe art style of the game is very nice and kind of reminds me of retro vector-based games like Asteroids. Overall this is a really nice game!\n\nEDIT: I forgot my highscore, but I recall making it to Year 10.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"OccultOne","author_uid":"1000603","time":"2017-05-19T01:29:46Z","epoch":1495157386,"modified":1495157386,"text":"Really interesting graphics, but found it a little easy to play.
