Strategy Guide

This game might be easier to play with a Touchscreen because it's likely that you can move your finger much faster than you could a mouse cursor. Try both to see how high a score you can get.

Every Laser Shot costs 1 point.

If you hit an alien, you get a variable amount of points. Every second you get 0.01 points for the growth of the tree.

If you are fast enough, you can swipe immediately after clicking to hit more targets with just One shot, gaining more points.

Compatibility Disclaimers

For Computer users

This game is only tested on Android, HTML, and Linux 64-Bit, because:

  • I developed the game on my 64-Bit Linux computer,
  • I don't have an iMac,
  • Windows was not a priority during development in interest of saving time,
  • and I also don't have a 32-Bit Linux computer.

The rest of the builds (that aren't the Android or Linux 64-Bit version) might be buggy as a result.
But they're still available downloads because in my opinion it's much better to still publish the other builds in case they Might work, rather than not publishing them because i'm not sure if they Will work.

For Phone users

The web version can't detect that you're playing on a phone instead of a computer. This means that the useless keyboard prompts don't get removed — this issue is not in the native Android version.

Great Game very polished and fun

(1 edit) (+1)

Well made, I like the difficulty climb, and it's surprisingly polished for a jam.

I give your great game a 7/10! (also, my best score was 84.75)

(+2)

This sounds great. I could make the game this polished because

  • I already finished the basic version of the game on day 1
  • I steadily continued working on the game every day after

I am also really happy with the results, especially since i myself could not forsee how well this, my first game jam participation, would go: With the game already being done on day 1, and only getting better from there.
