Mineray by Riodeluz
Description
Enemies want to attack your mine and your harvesting robots! Fortunately you have robots to defend yourself and robots to repair the damage.
With the minerals that your harvesting robots bring back, you can build new robots. To do this, use [SPACEBAR] in front of the dedicated machines.
You can also repair your destroyed robots. To do this, go to a destroyed robot and press [SPACEBAR] for at least one second.
Will you be up to the task?
How to play ?
Your harvesting robots will allow you to increase your mineral supply. With these ores you can buy :
_Defender robots that will allow you to go and fight the enemies.
_Harvesting robots to earn more minerals.
_Repairer robots to automatically repair destroyed robots.
You can also go out and repair your robots yourself, but be careful not to take too many shots!
The game ends when all your robots are destroyed or when your character dies by taking too many shots.

With a better ballancing it would be amazing !
Yes the ballancing was super hard to do !
Actually it's quite easy at the beginning and almost impossible after 180 seconds for me.
Need to find the right balance !
And not too easy, to avoid having 40+ robots alive
I would suggest adding some indication which robots are available to buy at given moment. The amount of gold was sometimes hard to read.
Overall very nice entry!
