After several attempts I could barely survive long enough to get my second tower up.\n\nThat being said, the idea is novel, the execution is solid, and the graphics are lovely. I also thought it was really funny dying in a few seconds and having my survival time reported in millions of years. Nice job overall.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jsec","author_uid":"1012532","time":"2020-04-22T16:08:31Z","epoch":1587571711,"modified":1587571711,"text":"Nice game, i like the idea.

Playing with the arrows would be easier, and the tower could be placed using space bar.\n\nBeside that, it is a great concept! A simple and nice game, could be ported to mobile and would be a nice game to play once in a while!

I suppose I wish the shots weren't quite as homing, however? What I at least found the most fun and interesting was having to juggle the different priorities of types of meteors and guns, making sure I was always attacking the most I could with the right resources, but everything auto-targeted so much that that aspect diminished more that I would like. Would I be saying the opposite if there wasn't auto-targeting? Yeah, Probably. So what's the answer? I have no idea. Either way, great work!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jondkoon","author_uid":"1103564","time":"2020-04-24T00:40:54Z","epoch":1587688854,"modified":1587688854,"text":"Solid 4\/5. Like other commenters I felt the game was very difficult. Probably didn't help I was playing with a touch pad. I really loved the gameplay, the graphics, the concept and the sound. I think I would have played it for quite a while if it wasn't so hard. I played three times and then bailed. It was very satisfying to get one of my towers upgraded.\n\nIn addition to balancing the enemy progression I think you could have removed the need for clicking to activate the towers.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"abhimonk","author_uid":"1005796","time":"2020-04-24T00:41:54Z","epoch":1587688914,"modified":1587688914,"text":"I had a lot of fun with this! The art is adorable I think the auto-aim is actually perfect. It allows you to focus on the main mechanic of rotating the globe! I really liked the fact that I had to aim my strongest city at the largest threats while still trying to get my weaker cities to contribute. What determines where a building arrow spawns? I would have liked to decide where to place my buildings so I could have strategic coverage of the globe.\n\nGreat work!

It's like the old arcade-game Asteroids with a twist.\n\nThe upgrade system is neat, and the overall game is very well put together.\n\nBut I'm either a really bad player, or then the game is extremely difficult.\n\n![highscore.png](\/\/\/raw\/e4c\/2\/z\/3373b.png) \n\nI found it impossible to last more than 500+ million years.\n\n---\n\nI first thought to myself that \"man, these are some unlucky planets\", but then I thought that maybe that's not a lot of impact events in such timescale after all.\n\n![impact.png](\/\/\/raw\/e4c\/2\/z\/3373d.png)\n\nAt least apparently if you compare it to earth, the planets of this game don't even get a whole lot of beating in comparison!\n\n---\n\nI also like the fact that everytime you played the planet had a distinct appearance.\n\nI'm not entirely sure did I like the cute eyes though. They're surely adorable, and make it easier to make out the orientation of the planets, but somehow it takes away the \"grandeur\" of these astronomical bodies.\n\nBut that might be just me. The eyes could be easily implemented an impact animation though. (Making them close for less than a second in a painful expression whenever an asteroid strikes).\n\n---\n\nBut all in all good job! I hope to see more of your stuff in the future.\n\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Jaun","author_uid":"1001629","time":"2020-04-28T23:24:50Z","epoch":1588116290,"modified":1588116290,"text":"Thank you everyone for playing and commenting, much appreciated!\n\n@dis0rder hey, thank you for going out of your way to play my new entry, and also writing such detailed review! Yeah, the game is definitely not easy hahaha, and is funny that you mention the eyes cause I actually did though about removing them at one point (and like that they give some \"personality\" to the planet, but maybe they dont really fit with the mood).\n\nSo apparently this planets should consider themselfs lucky compare with out poor Earth, I kind of like that.","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld46\/189056-c423f5fb7ef576bf1382d75791a52a56.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/jaun.itch.io\/planeto","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/bitbucket.org\/Galbix\/ld46\/src\/master\/","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/jaun.itch.io\/planeto","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/jaun.itch.io\/planeto","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/jaun.itch.io\/planeto","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"63707","g_author":"1001629","g_event":"LD46","g_eventkey":"77","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"279330","g_title":"PLANET\u25ef","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"166","g_commentcount":"18","g_site2_node_id":"189056","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"189056","n_urlkey":"279330","n_parent":"176557","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/46\/planeto","n_slug":"planeto","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"1629","n_created":"1587073551","n_modified":"1587587117","n_version":"624975","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":189056,"parent":176557,"superparent":9,"author":1629,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2020-04-20T00:50:08Z","created":"2020-04-16T21:45:51Z","modified":"2020-04-22T20:25:17Z","version":624975,"slug":"planeto","name":"PLANET\u25ef","body":"![jrOcwcKvD9.gif](\/\/\/raw\/d56\/z\/32133.gif)\n\nTake the role of nurturing a small, developing planet trying to grow in a dangerous galaxy.
