Space Recharge by Kurangceret

[raw]
made by Kurangceret for LD 39 (JAM)

Space Recharge is a game where you play as a space ship that constantly requires recharging of power from planet earth.

You are tasked as the sole attacker and defender to defeat alien invasion and dive them away from the galaxy.

With spaceship that keep on dripping its power by each second, the task proved to be quite a challenge.

Destroy their planet, and don't let them destroy your entire spaceships or your home planet.

Nice game! Better graphics would have made it almost perfect.

i liked the autonomous feel you gave to the player. how the player approached the enemy and the goal was on there own time as long as they protected there own base and the fact the goal was on the other end added to the Theme given. i also like the use of the art even though the art wasnt spectacular it was used well.

Solid game! I had a freeze after the second time I recharged my ship (on my second life) - it seemed like the game was still running, based on the audio, but the render froze and stopped updating. Couldn't find a log file.

@bmacintosh Most likely a bug with audio. The game codebase has only a shallow implementation of audio system. Sorry for the bad experience, glad you enjoyed the game though!

Neat game. Moving the ship felt good, and only being able to shoot straight added a little skill into it which I like. Was a bit hard to know where enemy ships were especially with the large map.
Nice game with the limited hours we had.
Keep up the good work!

The Audio is taken from the Unity space ship tutorial, the controls are imaginative but a bit tricky, the art could be much better, but it quite a good job! keep it up

Nice game! I liked the tutorial page at the launch, very helpful. The sound effects are nice and welcome. The fact that you keep going forward needs some adaptation, like when you try to shoot the enemy planet. Maybe a slow down button would be a nice middle ground. The right click was very strong but I was pleased to see that a nicely balanced cooldown was in place. Good job overall!

It was a bit tricky controlling the space ship, maybe removing its constant thrust would help?

Great game! But i think it was too easy and repetitive. Maybe you could put more enemies, or power ups. Goob job!
