I found myself \"just one more time\"ing despite (or perhaps because of) the initial difficulty. Looking at a few tips you and other commenters gave helped me out a great deal. Sometimes I'd spawn with a lot of tanks underneath me and feel like a good chunk of my health was taken before I could get out of frame or load up my first attack. I think it would help to have an audio or visual effect cue the user when their next strike is ready. That way, they can keep their eye on the action and be ready to strike immediately without just mashing the mouse button.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ryusui","author_uid":"1005105","time":"2019-05-03T01:26:46Z","epoch":1556846806,"modified":1556846806,"text":"Really frustrating learning curve. You start each excursion to Earth with 0 charge, so you're defenseless for a few seconds while the soldiers pummel you mercilessly. Targeting also seems to be overly finicky.

As for targeting you just have to click on the soldiers and that will blow up an area of them. Remember that destroying the buildings earns you many more lives, so I would recommend first clearing an area of soldiers and then farming the buildings. I think that should be more than enough to consistently heal yourself and get upgrades, but thanks for the feedback.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Baby Dino Herd","author_uid":"1010395","time":"2019-05-03T03:49:36Z","epoch":1556855376,"modified":1556855376,"text":"The music here is really great, and helps to set a nice lighthearted tone that meshes well with the rest of the aesthetics, providing a perfect complement to the actual subject matter of the game.\n\nLike others, I thought the game was a little too hard (even with your helpful tips), which is a shame, because I was having fun learning the game and _did_ feel myself improving. Sometimes, though, I had trouble getting enemies even within the frame of the camera without taking damage, so even mopping up the last few enemies could feel a little random.
