This game is about defending something with insufficient resources. Unfortunately I neglected everything non-code, so no sound ):
The levels are short, the story simple, but I hope you are able to have fun. Tested in the latest Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera and Chrome. Opera and Chrome render terribly, so avoid it if possible.
This was my first Javascript project, and I made the grave mistake of writing everything from scratch, without jQuery. Loads of fun, but an awfully long time.
cool game! I like the game mechanic. The first level was the most fun, because it felt like I had to actually AIM the ball. The last level was "easy", because I just kept the ball in the middle, and wiggled it around.
Perhaps, given more time, you could add more mechanics -- for example, less enemies (to promote aiming, vice wiggling), and maybe different types of enemies. For example, maybe an enemy that orbits around the center, shooting bullets in. You can block the bullets, but you need to hit the orbiting enemy to stop the bullets. That would require aiming.
Reviewers, please mention if you notice any problems. If rendering looks funny, things move in unnatural ways, or performance is performance, for example. This is always useful to know for the next time.
Another game that was deceptively challenging! I'd like to see some different enemy types, but still a great difficulty curve. Bug: clicking new game after winning just displays the win message again.
The source has support for a lot of variation in the levels, I just didn't around to create any missions that used it. If the ball is slow and the enemies are extra bouncy, for example, spinning in a tight circle won't help.
That was fun, the ball mechanics work really well. But the final level was maybe too easy, because you can just keep that ball in the middle. Maybe you could make the target move around a bit to add a layer of difficulty
I enjoyed playing this game. Just like voidqk said, it was most fun at the beginning and then it was just keeping the mouse in the middle. Still I quite like the simple/subtle arts.
Interesting mechanic. Did you plan to avoid that the player camps near the base with a kind of rotation movement? Seems a bit too strong! :D Like others said, add sound effects and music (if you like to work on a post-compo version)!
Really nice orbiting mechanic. Well done I included it in my Ludum Dare 28 compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/tnNlwxp-9J8

Just thoughts, well done!
Please review mine, if you have the chance.
